MP4 Format:

AUDIO: MPEG-4 AAC-LC 2CH

What I need to do is take the HD video and resize it to 590x250 using avidemux but I do not want to lose any picture quality.
The only way not to loose quality in digital domain is to COPY/PASTE (and similar). Any transformation would inherently incure losses. Try downsizing 1920x1080 to 590x250 then upsize it again to 1920x1080. No quality loss would mean that you'll end with identical videos.

Secondly the quality is pretty much dependent on your senses (subjective) and on your displaying device. Eg a 65" plasma vs. a cell phone.
I'm not aware of any standalone using this strange resolution so I assume it should be progressive, that is, you need to quest for a deinterlacer too.
Both the choice of the scaler (resize algorithm) and the deinterlacer is solely dictated by the video source.
