I travel a lot and I use an iPhone so I like to load up on videos to watch when I am stuck on a plane. While you can buy videos from iTunes store I own a bunch of DVDs that I had originally ripped to AVI format and there is a ton of other free content out their like video podcasts that I would be happy to use. There are two tools I consistently use to make my video playable on the iPhone. Both tools are free but available only for the Mac.
iSquint
A lot of my videos in my collection are saved in AVI format and at a higher resolution than my IPhone can display. iSquint can convert virtually any video format to a smaller format that is playable by iPhone an by reducing the resolution it reduces the size making the video more portable.. The iSquint converter is a nice easy drag and drop utility that will convert videos to a format and resolution appropriate for the iPhone or video iPod.
TubeTV
As I mentioned there is plenty of free content on the web at YouTube and other video sharing sites, and while you can surf you tube when you have a connection you are out of luck when you are off line. flash and convert them to mp4 format that you can play on your iPhone. TubeTV also lets you search for videos. I like TubeTV because it will find the video, save it, and then convert it. Though most of the time I past URLs from NetNewsWire to TubeTV and then process the download.
