I use SmartRipper and PocketDivXEncoder to produce .AVI files (both very easy to use)which I view using the superb BetaPlayer. It is a much superior player to WMP (any version) not least because it has a good graphic equaliser and even more importantly, because it lets you adjust Brightness, Contrast and Saturation (color). I find .WMV files viewed using WMP are almost always much too dark and there is nothing to be done about this.

I copy my .AVI files to a 256MB CF card and I get excellent quality playback, even with a 2.5 hour movie. I use 2 pass encoding. I have no problems with speech and video synchronisation.
