Personally, I use Handbrake to do video encoding for the N9. It works like a charm and it is open source; you can also create your own profiles so you fiddle only once with the settings.

Handbrake - Open Source Video Transcoder

As a side note, to get the best out of your video transcoding it is a good idea to first have a look at the N9's specifications - it will save a lot of time

Device details - Nokia N9

And high resolution videos take more space.

For me mp4 854x480 worked fine with km player. Not sure about stock one.
I think he refers to the mid and high mkv profiles, which are unsupported on N9. Those happen to make the vaaaast majority of rips you'd find on the internet. Seriously, how can the N9 not support the most popular format?

Take a look at video converter from AppGeeker, it works for me well and converts any type of video format.

You can tweak output settings such as resolution, file size, etc.

I use..ffmpeg

ffmpeg -i 01.mp4 -vcodec libx264 -ab 128 -b 700000 -s 852x480 output.mp4

mplayer + kmplayer accepted ..mkv .. mp4...divx ...also supports embedded subtitles

Graphic video converter apps...Handbrake ... Avidemux... very cool !

I prefer to use Video Converter Assist:

I have used it for a while and been reasonably satisfied with the result.

I use this script on Linux Debian to make N9-friendly videos :

Code:
#!/bin/sh

infile=$1
tmpfile="$1-tmp.mp4"
outfile="$1-new.mp4"
options="-vcodec libx264 -b 512k -flags +loop+mv4 -cmp 256 \
       -partitions +parti4x4+parti8x8+partp4x4+partp8x8+partb8x8 \
       -me_method hex -subq 7 -trellis 1 -refs 5 -bf 3 \
       -flags2 +bpyramid+wpred+mixed_refs+dct8x8 -coder 1 -me_range 16 \
           -g 250 -keyint_min 25 -sc_threshold 40 -i_qfactor 0.71 -qmin 10\
       -qmax 51 -qdiff 4"

# Half size
options=$options" -vf scale=iw*0.5:-1"
# Copy audio
options=$options" -codec:a copy"
# Shut up
options=$options" -loglevel info "

# echo "Options : $options"

avconv -y -i "$infile" -threads auto $options "$outfile"
# avconv -y -i "$infile" -an -pass 1 -threads auto $options "$tmpfile"

# avconv -y -i "$infile" -acodec aac -strict experimental -ar 44100 -ab 96k -pass 2 -threads auto $options "$tmpfile"

# qt-faststart "$tmpfile" "$outfile"
