If found this blog about how to convert movies for play on a Palm device (including the Treo). I haven't tried it (takes 4 hours for converting).

Let me how you make out...

How about TealMovie?

That looks to be another option.

You can try using TCPMP, i'm using the unstable version at the moment on my treo 600 and i've had no problems with it.

http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/download

And to convert the movies use : virtual dub

Default Converting movies on a Mac?

Any ideas on the best method/app/settings for converting a movie on a Mac to play on a Palm 5 Treo? All the tools I've seen so far are for Windows machines.

Also, all the attempts I've made with FCP so far result in 30 minutes of video being about 500M of the wrong format.

Thanks for any help....

Default To Rip a DVD for a Palm.

If you want to rip dvd's to palm to the product pocket dvd for palm. To rip a good sized movie 2hr plus takes about 50 minutes depending on quality. It will also convert any movies to palm format in one step.

I have been using it for a while with no complaints.

For a Mac, check out Handbrake. Excellent and free.

Settings:
Handbrake Settings:
320x128 for widescreen DVD Settings
320x240 for 4x3

fps: 15
Encoder: XviD
Avg Bitrate kbps: 260
2 pass encoding
MPEG-4 Video/AAC Audio
MP4 file
Language None
Audio
Language 1: English AC3 5ch
Language 2: None
Sample Rate: 4800
Bitrate (kbps) 40

This outputs a 250MB or so movie..great quality.

The only issue I'm having is that sometimes I'm getting audio for the director's cut.
