? Is there a blue screen or does it just lock up?
I've just seen lockups and blank screens with PMVP when trying bad video files.

When I've found the "optimal" settings...
I hope your luck is better than mine. I used identical setting from a successful compression for a file from another format (DVD vs. Hi-8 tape) and it crashed the Axim. A/V sync is another headache, depending on your system.

I tape on a Sony Hi-8 camcorder, dump to PC via Dazzle USB converter, capture to .avi with bundled sotware, crunch and massage with Vdub and, finally, copy to CF card via PCMCIA adapter.

I have a Canopus AVDC100 converter (any A/V in to digital out) on the way, which hopefully will eliminate a lot headaches.
