I would second the use of mencoder. I've dont it with videos from my Canon A80. mencoder has too many options, but something along the lines of:

mencoder mymovie.avi -of mpeg -ovc lavc -lavcopts \ vcodec=mpeg4:acodec=mp3:vhq -o mymovie.mpg

that is not going to work, but should get you started. Sometimes mencoder gives good error messages about what you need to do and the man page is pretty extensive.
