So what is the recommended configuration?
Resolution 640x480?
Compression?

There's a WME config file at http://soap.circuitrunners.com/2007/2007.wme

The codecs are WM 9 series... maybe 10- whatever comes with the latest player/encoder programs.

In a nutshell: 720x480 (640x480 is ok too), ~800kbps video + ~40kbps audio, deinterlace, "2007 xxxxx Regional" metadata.

There's a great tool to convert video called "SUPER". I've used it to scale down some matches to fit on my Nextel i880. If you ever run into Dan Green from WildStang ask to see the Kickoff video on his phone.
