I've had the best luck with Pocket-DVD Studio. I believe it encodes in xvid and files work great in betaplayer

thanks for the help guys....


got another question... how long does it take to convert a movie to pocket pc??

i've got a 256mb card ready... how many movies you think i can fit? 2 maybe?

Using pocketdivx and setting it for my HP55XX I run a movie at 4-6 out of 12 on video and 4 on sound (to maintain stero). A 90 min movie will run @170,000. A 2 hour movie @200,000.

One of the nice things is if you are willing to sacrifice picture / sound you can get them VERY SMALL (comparatively).
