Help. I made this great movie with Windows Movie Maker II. It plays great on the desk top - of course - but is choppy and leaves out bits on my Axim 5 media player. I have the 300mhz version.

Any way to improve the play back or is this the state of the art?!

Have you re-encoded the video and optimized it for pocket pc's? If not, use Windows Media Encoder and choose one of the PPC templates. The only other possibility would be to overclock your axim to 400 MHz or more. You can use a free utility called Turbo Tray to overclock.

I tried this late last night and it worked great, except for some loss of quality on the video with fast movement. I am sure I can improve the overall quality with encoder, and nothing got lost with choppy play. I also like the fact that it takes up a 3rd of the space on my SD card as the original movie. Thanks!

I used DVD to PPC software. converted the DVD movie and was trying to watch it on my Axim X5 Advanced. I still get choppy video. I watched the same file on my laptop and it runs fine. Do I need to convert the file with windows media encoder to prevent this?

I have the 300 mhz, and it really isn't that choppy at all. DVD to PPC uses Windows Media Encoder 9 in the first place, so I'm not sure re encodeing would do anything
