I recently got a 16MB Creative Zen player. It has a really cool screen, long battery life, and accepts SD cards for additional storage. It's perfect for watching TV / Movies and Security Conference proceedings.
The problem is that there is no direct way to convert arbitrary video files to acceptable formats. The formats that the Zen likes are WMV and XVID.
Most of the conversion can be done with WinFF (free) using a simple one step process.
Converting a DVD to XVID takes two steps:
1. Rip the DVD to disk using DVDShrink
2. Use WinFF to convert VOB to AVI (XVID)
Converting Real Media format to WMV/XVID only takes one step, but requires the use of a non-free product supporting Real formats. I like xlisoft converter software.
