I made a few movies using Windows Movie-Maker2 and when you save the movie you must choose "Pocket PC Movie", i tried to use something different because i wanted to try something but when viewing, the picture is black on your Ax. After that i saved it in Pocket PC format and it worked just fine.

Maybe this is the problem, i haven't tried to view "standard" WMV files but i will do that soon to see if the problem is the same.

But for your conversion it must work, it works fine for me. I chop the files so they don't get bigger than 20Mb 'cause i've noticed that playing big movies will make it jerky in full screen, but after my hard reset there is more memory available so they run smoother now...

By-the-way i came across a AVI/DivX movie player yesterday which i will install in the coming days to check it out.

There are also a few tutorials present in the tutorials section (yeah where else :p ) about making movies for your Ax.
Check these out 'cause there full of great info about making movies for your Ax.
