stephen,
The MTV video format is a much older video format for the Actions based players. It was later replaced with the AMV video format which had better compression (as .MTV video files didn't have compression).
I haven't seen any alternative MTV Video Converter than the one that comes with the MP3 Player Utilities (you will need a much older version of the MP3 Player Utilities as well ver 3.57 from memory). So far, the MP3 Player Utilities only comes in a Windows format, so to get it to run on Linux, you might have to look at getting a Windows emulator on it. That has been the alternative I know of so far. If there is anything else, please let me know.
