I did this for my Treo 700p using ffmpeg to convert the videos to 
320x240 3GP (MPEG4/AAC) files.

I also installed Apples Darwin Streaming server to stream them. Works 
well over Sprint's network most of the time. Though 320x240 video is 
really only useful for "talking head" news shows.

There are instructions on the MythTV.org website to get you started:
