Cool - I've never hit apple i before! Here's what it says: Format: XviD (3ivx), 640X480, millions microsoft ADPCM, Mono, 44.100 kHz FPS: 30 etc... (pretty sure that's the relevant stuff).
Checking the 3ivx thing - on your Flip, double click the icon to open up the folder, open the System folder, open the Install folder ... and install the macintosh 3ivx installer. There's one for Windows, too - so it works with Windows Movie Maker. That's what I installed to make it work.
