Hi everyone!

I have a problem converting a mpeg video using movie maker.

I got a holiday video from a friend on SVCD. He said that he has tried to bring it onto his PDA but without success.

Therefore he gave it to me to try it.
I inserted the Video CD into my CD Drive and copied the video file from the MPEG2 folder to my HDD.
Then i tried to import this file into Windows Movie Maker, and after some cpuworking the programm tells me, that the file might be damaged. But im sure it's not (i watched the whole video several times...Lanzarote is a cool island ;-))

The thing i want to do is to convert the file to 320x200 (or so...which formates do you use for your PDA's movies?)
from 640x480...

Movie Maker obviously has a problem with the file: Which programms do you use? am i doing something wrong?

I don't have much experience in this field and any i qould appreciate any input!!!1

thanks
Werner
