The original poster is correct, I have done this with a movie, and it works fantastic. On my maestro, .wmv and w. media player SUCKED.
On my axim w/ wm2003, the .wmv files play *smooth*, and the movie maker 2 thing encode pretty freakin' fast. Taking a divx or xvid down to 110-150mb takes about 40 minutes, if that. A simpsons episode took about 10 minutes. The quality is actually 200x better than I expected. No point in even messing w/ divx for me. This is quick, easy, and the player is already in rom. The less installed the better, in my opinion.
The presets in movie maker 2 for widescreen and cd ql audio give it surprisingly great quality. Non-widescreen and 'voice' audio give smaller file size, but if you have thye room, the higher settings still cram a 2 hour film into 150-160mb. This is crazy awesome, I can carry around 5 mixed episodes of simpsons, futurama and family guy, and 3 full movies! Next plane trip I take is going to be sooo non-boring.....
