How to play MOV-files or convert them to MPEG1 humanly?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc,microsoft.public.pocketpc.multimedia (More info?)

I have a number of small, black-and-white, a couple seconds
long MOV-files. Now, the issue is this:

1) how can i view them on my PocketPC (Jornada 548).

I downloaded PocketTV and tried to convert those to MPEG1
using TMPGEnc in order to view them BUT:

2) is it normal that such a file gets to over 1 MB?!

There is almost no change between frames and the size is just
about 150x200 so there's got to be a way of making a normal
MOV-file view on my PDA (either a viewer for MOV - that'd
be the best - or conversion to something humanly large)?

No, it won't. Sadly... The version that i made work only run
AVI-files, not MOV. I find it very strange that there's such
a limited number of options when it comes to viewers...
