Increasing frame rates

I use Windows media to make video for my pocket PC and
the latest version of movie maker has 2 specific settings
to such a thing.

The problem is that the two settings offer either a very
small picture (about a 2 inch picture on a 4 inch screen)
or very choppy (a four inch picture on a 4 inch screen.

The problem seems to be in the frame rates. The small
picture is a decent frame rate at about 21 frames per
second but is tiring on the eyes where the large picture
is easy to watch (about 15 frames per second) but its
like watching a slide show of pictures, its so bad.

Call me greedy :-) but i want the best of both worlds,
and Microsoft has locked in most of the settings. Is
there a way to change this so I can experiment with frame
rates to get a decent picture on my pocket PC.

Thanks

Download and play with the Windows Media Encoder version 9. It'll let you make most anything you want, along with making your own custom profile for MM2 to use once you achieve your optimum.
