Hey all

Just got a hold of one of them iPod Nano clones from Hong Kong, 1GB, firmware 3.5.35 (turns out it's the one I apparently can't do much with in themes etc :x) and I'm having a little trouble with videos.

It's details say it can play several movie types including WMV, AMV, and of course it's called an MP4 player so one would assume it also plays MP4 files. However, so far the only files I've been able to get it to play are AMV files downloaded from this site. MP4, WMV, MPG, whatever else I call the files, no matter how I seem to encode them, the player returns "No files!" when I try to acces the Movie section.

I'd just convert what files I have to AMV using the little tool available on this site, but it requires Windows Media Player 9 or 10 to use, and on my Windows box (which I try to use sparingly) I don't have anything higher than the OLD WMP, and I use another player altogether for all my media needs. So is there a tool available that can convert to AMV WITHOUT the need for WMP, or even better, a Linux version that converts to AMV?
