Have you tried MPeg4 or WMV 8 / 9 ?

Maybe the Mpegs you tried were either Mpeg(1) or Mpeg2.

The latest version of Windows Media Encoder (free!!) converts most filetypes
to WMA9 and WMV9.

Windows Media Encoder will convert most videos to it's own Windows Media
Video codec - versions 8 and 9 are supported.
Windows Media Video is a hybrid MP4 codec so unless specifically supported
by your K700i then it'll be no use to you.

I had a quick search on Google to see whether the K700i supports Windows
Media Video - found nothing positive but did find this link

Guide for creating 3gp (mp4) video for K700i using MpegAble X4live
http://3gp.spawnweb.dk/

Also, a registered QuickTime Player will export videos to 3GP (and MP4 i
believe) formats.
