If you do want to try converting that movie into something that might be playable and watchable on an LCIII, here are some rough guidelines:
1) Choose a framesize no larger than 320x240.
2) Choose a max framerate of 10fps.
3) Select a keyframe interval of one per second.
4) Choose nothing higher than "medium" quality.
5) Set target bitrate no higher than 100kbytes/s. Lower is better for playability, but worse for watchability.
You'll also need to convert the audio track. I recommend using IMA 4:1, set to 22kHz, and mono. That will get the audio down to less than 90kbits/s. Use SoundApp for this.
Convert video using MoviePlayer 2.5. A 300MHz G3 will convert into Cinepak at around 1:10 speed, meaning a 2-hour movie will take the better part of a day to convert.
If you are adventurous enough to do this, please post back. I'd love to hear how it works out.
