On Windows, I use XMediaRecode build 3191 to generate MOV files with MP4 AVC / AAC. You can configure nearly everything when re-encoding. If you read the knowledge base artice carefully and adapt the settings, it should be easy to generate MOV videos that work perfectly inside Cubase.
For the lazy ones, the attached settings file should work nicely for SD and HD stuff, and the resulting videos will work without a prob in Cubase. For HD, you could increase the video bitrate a bit to get a decent pic (e g to 4000).
The big advantage of XMediaRecode is that it accepts nearly any input format (MPEG2, MTS, TS…) and is 100% stable. You don’t even have to install it if you use the portable version.
