Watching videos on the go

How much time do you spend travelling each day? For me, its an average of 3 hours. Within this 3 hours, I usually read newspaper , watch msdn videos/ bleach on my smartphone, or simply play Doom

Recently, I found a couple of software which allows me to play full length video on my smartphone.

Previously, I have to encode the videos in wmv format, which results in not very satisfying quality and not very satisfying file size (at least for me). Until I found TCPMP (haha, sounds a bit like advertisement), which allows me to play Xvid and DivX encoded videos on my smartphone (running Windows mobile 2003).

The software I used to convert the video is AutoGK, which allows me to select the output file format and it will do the rest for me. I admit that I am not a very video encoding savvy person, so its easy to use interface is pretty "idiot-proof" for me.

If you have a few videos if you have seen due to your busy schedule and have a smartphone or pocket pc, do give these 2 programs a try.
