It turnes out to be fairly easy. DivX.com sells a set of conversion utilities for $15. I downloaded it last night and tried it out. It failed on the mov files. I contacted technical support there and they pointed to a no-charge companion product called Dr. Divx which converted them to divx movies and they play beautifully on the Phillips. No settings to play with, as well.

Anyway, it may seem obvious, but make sure you convert to the proper resolution and bit rate for the Phillips (whatever that is - I don't have the manual handy, but it's usually something close to the standard DVD resolution and a bit rate less than 4k, I think). The DivX file you create has to be within specifications. Digital cameras capturing movies often use funny frame rates and resolutions.
This may not be your problem, but it's worth checking. Good luck!
