My latest version of encode-handheld.pl.

New stuff:

* Using jhead to remove comment from PSP thumbnail, thereby creating a proper JPEG header.

* Added support for adding unique title atom to videos other than just the file name.
so now you can do -n "Family Guy s07e01" -N "Love Blactually".
That will set the file name to "Family Guy s07e01.m4v" and the title to "Love Blactually".

* Added track support for TV Shows. This will be auto populated if you use naming structure
of "TV Show s01e01". If you want a num/tot then pass 01/13 for example.

* Added support for Release Date using year. Can now pass a year string and now Release
Date will be filled. Look at examples in encode-handheld.pl -h

* If creating TV show, now Album and Artist will be filled out automatically.
Album will be "TV Show, Season #". Artist is a copy of TV Show.

note:
If you end your titles for TV Shows with sXXeXX then it will be parsed correctly as a TV Show.
If you end your titles for Music Videos with mvid then it will be parsed correctly as a Music Video.

crop note:
crop is done to the original video prior to encoding. AR is recalculated on new crop size.

year notes:
If you pass -y XXXX you will get a year timestamp on your MP4 file only.
If you pass -y "string value" you will get a year timetamp and Release Date information on your MP4 file.
All string values are converted to UTC.

Some example valid year strings:
"July 24, 2007 10pm EST"
"Mon Jan 26 12:26:13 EST 2009"
"2009-01-23 21:00:00 EST"
