ok just uploaded a 2 second clip to the bug issue tracker. ITVC (sorry about screwing up th acronym in earlier posts) won't recognize the format.

I'm stll hoping someone out there regularly converts dvr-ms's to something playable on the n810 and is will to share their secret- which transcode app, what reso/bitrate/codec, and what version of what N810 player they are using. thanks!
