Both the iPhone and Google Android phones seem to have limited codec support when it comes to video. Both support MP4, so I did a bit of searching on the internet to find out how to convert to a suitable format using MPlayer's MEncoder.
Video cannot have a high compression rate, and the video size generally needs to be scaled down to 480:352. The video codec used here is x264 with a bitrate of 512.
