Can't play video on g1

I've converted a movie to MPEG1 to view on my G1. I couldn't find it in the Gallery section, nor under MixZing's Video tab. So I went through Astro to find it.

Sure enough, I see the icon for it, but when I tap the icon to view the movie I get a warning saying, "Cannot play video. Sorry, this video cannot be played."

So I converted to MPEG2. Same result.

Am I doing something wrong or can mpegs not be played on the G1? (I'm pretty sure they can...I once watched a downloaded TV series on it.)
