MobilNova

I use MobilNova (www.mobilnova.com) and it will play videos, burn dvd's, etc. It even has a picture viewer. I don't believe TomTom has their own video player.

I successfully installed the MPlayer from :TomTomHeaven
(You may need to use a translation tool...)

It's a bit clunky but it does work. Creating the video is a bit of a chore though. IIRC there are instructions/tools at the site above to help do that. It all seemed like hard work so I gave up.

Like one of the prior posters, I installed the mobilnova software. Works like a champ using their conversion program, although that takes a while -- just as any similar program on a PC for reformatting of video. With an aux SD card installed, I can get The Sting and the entire Western Europe map set on 2GB and have more than 1GB to spare.
