Knowing the best way to compress video is sometimes a matter of preference and less dependent on the best way. There are a number of tips that can help you choose what is best for you and your needs. There is no magic solution but MultimediaShooter put together a great list of tips on Video Compression and did it in a very entertaining way. There is a follow up to their work entitled The Dark Art of Video Compression and can be found here.
Here are some useful links as well.
Compressors/Encoders:
The Flash VideoEncoder, which comes with Flash 8 (big$$).
Sorenson Squeeze Multiple output formats with the Suite.
The ON2 Flix Encoders (from $69 - free demos)
The RivaVX FLV Encoder (Free, not available for MAC, no ON2 VP6 codec yet)
And a few more to just to keep you on your toes.
