Hi. I use a method of compression that I haven't seen anywhere else. First, you have to compress the video into MPEG format. I do this by using DVD Decrypter to get the VOB file, then DVD2AVI to get the AVI and WAV files. Then I use TMPEG to get the MPEG file. This file is useable on some players such as PocketTV, but it will be about 220 MB for one 23 min. Simpsons episode. And you have to find a different player other than Windows media. My computer has Windows Movie Maker on it, so I use that. I import the MPEG file into it, then save the movie and convert it into WMV format. There are even three settings specifically for PDA's. The end result is a decent quality Simpsons episode at only 37 MB that will play on Windows Media Player for Pocket PC.
