Is it possible to export a video in a format other than m4v?

I've just recorded a video in iMovie using the built in camera capture, exported the movie.. tried uploading it to YouTube twice, and both times, it failed. It's saying .m4v isn't a compatible format - but I've uploaded other built in webcam captured movies to YouTube before, and they were in m4v, never had any problems.

So is there any way to choose which format you export the movie in? Need a .mov or .mpg or something.

iPod touch, Mac OS X (10.6)

Hi

Export as QuickTime and choose what You find suites You. There are many things to choose in QT Expert mode. In fact so many that I use to mess things up here - and are looking for help to save out as HD in highest possibly quality to an USB-memory stick to be played-back on a PlayStation 3.

A very skill needing task - which I have a long way to go to get.

Still - QuickTime is a great tool.
