Converting DVD to Pocket PC WMV Part 2

Creating the WMV output profile

If you don't already have it installed on your system, download Windows Media Encoder and install it.

While the video is converting, launch the Windows Media Profile Editor to create an output profile for the WMV file you will create using the AVI.

Start > All Programs > Windows Media > Utilities > Windows Media Profile Editor

Add a name, describe the profile, check the boxes next to Audio and Video, accepting the defaults, and then click the Add button.

Type 800K in the box. This is the maximum threshold supported by Portable Media Center devices and is a good benchmark to hit for Pocket PC devices.

For the audio, choose 64 kbps, 44 kHz, stereo CBR

Video settings should match the screenshot below for optimum results.
