Damn I hate saying this. But I try to be an honest person. And that means being willing to admit it when I'm wrong.

After downloading the latest version of Dr Divx, I now have no problem at all making videos that play perfectly on PocketMVP, and that maintain sync even when scrolling in time. And that includes the default (very conservative) prorile for Pocket PC, as well as profiles I've created myself.

I don't know why Divx files I created with VirtualDub, TMPGenc, and other applications didn't work. But results were exactly as I described in previous posts. However, with Dr Divx, everything is cool! So I'll be using Dr Divx A LOT in the future.

Having said that, frame rates are still pretty damn good with Windows Media Player 9 (in WM 2003), especially when automatically scaling 320x240 size 29.97 frame per second video (with stereo audio!) down an appropriate size for PPC viewing. Of course if you try to watch such videos fullscreen, frames are dropped everywhere, and sync goes out the window.
