I was/am in a similar situation trying to figure out a way to transcode
videos for my son's Zune. So far the only tool that has worked is crappy
MS Movie Maker. Anyway, I found this windows tool which I think is free:
GSpot. Just google and it should be the first thing returned. 

I will check out tovid as well!
