Are there any other video players for the P800?

I have more than a couple of .avi files and was wondering if there was another way to play them on the P800 without having to re encode them to .mp4

Virtualdub outputs to an avi file, and when i'm resizing files with it i have to re encode again back to mp4.


Any ideas?

P800 only operates on mp4.

you can get file compressor/converter programs which can make another copy of your video file but in MP4 format while also keeping your original copy/format

Where might I get such a program? I've tried searching google but it's a minefield of dead links and adverts!

Cheers.

If you use Mac OS X 10.2 you can also try a pre-release verison of the Popwire Compression Master.
Can be dowmloaded at www.popwire.com. Specially made for wireless compression.
