Meanwhile, here's a Perl script that I've knocked up that will recode anything you can throw at Mencoder to produce a 300kbps video 96kbps audio 15fps video file, at 320x240 or 400x240 depending on aspect ratio, with vertical or horizontal bars added if need be.

You'll need Perl, Mplayer and Mencoder installed.
You might be interested in my own Perl-based command line encoder which automatically works out size based on aspect ratio, and has a number of presets to guarantee the output is always playable on a 770:

I've not yet enhanced it to allow the preset to specify the maximum frame rate, though this is a trivial enhancement to add.

Cheers,

Andrew
