With PocketController you can capture video footage from your pda.

If you want a free solution, just take screen shots of every "frame" you need (unless it's actually fluid/video) and build an animated gif on your PC.

Ok, here's another follow up question...

What is the best format to save small movie clips for playback on a Pocket PC?

Thanks

That depends - how small is small? :P

WMV and AVI (DivX) offer the best compression. MPEG can also be used but the file size can be a little bloated. For WMV, you can use Windows Media Encoder to convert video clips to that format. For AVI (DivX), you can use PocketDivXEncoder, or else, there are a bundle of DivX encoding applications available on the net.
