Hi all.

I just picked up an HP iPaq, which has the ability to play WMV files in Windows Media 9. Here's the deal: I have an Eye TV and dozens of MPEG-1 movies I've captured with it. I've followed the instructions for how to convert them to AVI and then to WMV on the PC side, but I'm wondering if there's a way to do it in OS X? ffmpegx, perhaps? Can anyone recommend settings? I'm tinkering around with it now, but my results have been less than stellar.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers
Scott
