I could let you know the h264 settings I use through compressor if you want to hit me up on ICQ. As for mixing SD and HD footage, if you want to go with an eventual HD output, I'd probably size up the SD using compressor's format conversions (assuming the SD is in 16x9?). Compressor 3 has much improved resizing and retiming algorithms so you'll get good quality, then just edit the stuff in FCP. I don't think I'd encode SD footage in HD though for the websites. For my sites if I have SD footage I keep the high quality version in SD. Its going to be no different when they fullscreen it than if you offer it to them as an HD file (quality will probably be lower actually as it'll have more pixels of information to deal with for the same bitrate). Good luck! Messing around with compressor settings is always such a headache.
