Movie formats for rear USB Media
Has anyone successfully transferred movies onto USB for playing on the rear media screens? I've had a brief play with it, and it didn't work, so I was wondering if anyone had had success, and who could give me a bit of a leg up.
I've a variety of tools on my computers for converting DVDs into other formats. All my DVDs are ripped into VOBs and stored on a NAS, from where my house TVs will play them, but the Jag won't look at these files. Naturally, the documentation I've read through doesn't offer any useful comment.
So, have any of you guys had success in putting movies on USB sticks and then playing them in the back?

Thanks guys. DIVX encoded AVI plays nicely, although in a straight-through VOB to AVI conversion, I have to set the screen to "zoom". Since the system is to be operated by the children, I need it as simple as possible. I'm going to have a play with screen sizes.
I'm also going to see if the system can cope with playing two different movies off the same USB stick at the same time. I'm not that hopeful TBH!
