Using Compressor, you can create iTunes-compliant H.264 files. These can be played in
iTunes, on an iPod, on an iPhone, or with Apple TV.

The efficiency of the H.264 encoder makes it well suited to create media to use with
iTunes and its related Apple devices. Compressor includes preconfigured settings that
use the H.264 for Apple Devices Encoder pane to make it easy for you to create suitable
media files.
