Question Video Player or Converter for Pixi?

Hey folks.

I have a couple music videos I'm trying to put on my phone. One is an .avi and another an .mpg. The default music player on Pixi isn't picking it up. Is there a video player out there that will play these file types? If not, is there a converter app and what would I convert the files to?

Try vlc to play the videos.
if not, maybe you could get aneesoft to have a try, just convert the videos to its supported videos formats: MPEG-4, H.263, H.264

Convert them or try out MPlayer by Jason Robitaille...could be in the Preware catalog only.

I use TMPGenc. Like how I can trim and cut videos into the right size for my subway trips.

(video filters- mplayer resize widht 400)
(video configure (disable b-frame) -You can not do but it is desirable
visual hub -OSX profile (iphone (mpeg4 fast) (h264 long))
