I don't think that it's a bad thing to have POV switches--quite the contrary. And while they probably would have been executed better a few vids down the road, they weren't bad. I just tend to overthink POV anyway--which is to say it's me, not you! *g*

Have you looked at any technical guides explaining ripping? I think you can find links to a few here. They might be able to explain what's up with the quality. If that doesn't work, I'd suggest heading over to vidding before your next vid--people there always seem really nice and eager to answer vidding questions.

Anyway, I hope you make more vids in the future, because this was a great first effort! I'd like to see what else you come up with.
