Yes - AppleScript works very well to automate these types of tasks.
I spoke a little soon on the MPEG-1 to MPEG-4 transcode post - I was working
with video-only files. To work with files that include audio tracks - one
will probably have to work with audio and video separately.
I just did a test re-assembling the video and audio once they've been
transcoded and it seems to work nicely.
Contact me off list if you would like me to outline the steps and apps.
Best regards,
