Have you tried this one called Videora Nokia Converter? This free video encoder is available for some versions of your Nokia devices, such as N95, N96, N97 and of course 5800 XM. But when you using the last version, Videora Nokia Converter for Nokia 5800 XM, it will include the presets for the other mentioned Nokia devices.

So, what makes this video converter is better is that it can produce the playable video for your 5800 XM, that is VGA (640X480).
