Trying to playback video on Hero

Ok.....So I may be stupid, but I cannot for the life of me, figure out a setting in which to playback video on my Hero.

I've tried a bunch of different bitrates using different converters (all of this info of which I've found through various forums and posts of people who claim they've successfully converted video to play on their Hero) and I can't get anything to work. The video will start to play, but about 4 or 5 seconds in, the video freezes while the audio continues on.

I have read and tried the "Unofficial Movie Thread" tips from this forum as well and can't get it to work.

Am I missing a setting or something? I have no problems streaming Sprint TV or YouTube videos, it's just stuff from my SD card. Could that be the problem? Is the card just not able to process it that quickly? I have a hard time believing that because I've tried some pretty low quality settings to no avail.

Also, and this is a little off of this topic, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

For anyone using Gmote, have you been able to successfully stream video from your PC to your phone? Gmote claims that it can support mp4 streaming, but I've yet to have any luck.

Any help is always appreciated.
