There is a program out there that is easier to use than quicktime. Nokia Multimedia Converter. Just do a search in a search engine. Leave it on the default settings(you can up the bitrate to 12😎 and your set to make videos. When you save them, change the extension to .3g2. I have converted whole movies(Tommy Boy, Rocky IV) and they will fit on the 128MB card.
