When I started the tutorials, the archive didn't automatically create the .mp4 files. Either that or the processing was so way back in the queue that I thought it didn't. Someone complained about the webm files not playing under ios devices so I made the mkv ones which they were happy with. I put this along with the rest of my workflow rules and it's been there since https://gist.github.com/2466292
But you're right, now that the archive automatically generates the h.264 videos, I should probably drop the mkv files and just upload the webm ones.
Do the mp4s work fine under ios? I don't have any Apple devices to test this with.
Can you drop me a line at noufal at emacsmovies.org. I would appreciate some advice. My transcoding-fu is mostly empirical and it would be good to get someone to review my decisions.

Thanks for the encouragement.

Actually, iOS will only handle ISO media (MPEG-4, Quicktime, &c.) If you need a hand with this just ping me, it's my day job.
