iPod


Question Posted Sunday December 25 2005, 11:51 pm

For my friend's birthday, I'm getting him an iPod video. Please tell me if it actually plays movies (like full-length movies) or just shows and music videos. PLEASE ONLY ANSWER THIS QUESTION IF YOU ARE 100% SURE THAT MOVIES CAN BE PLAYED. Also, can you please tell me how many full-length movies the iPod video is able to hold? Thank you.

I have an iPod Video

It can definatly play music videos AND films

However, Apple is a little tight with the file types it accepts. You can load movies onto your computer and convert them over. There are many video converters out there, but most of them will cost

I have found 1 called "Videora Video Converter"
it can be found if you search it through google. It is completly free and will change your files to an acceptable ipod format. However this converter does have its downsides, it will not do some videos, it will speed up the video playback leaving the audio out of sync. But it is not a bad programme it works on most of my vidoes.

But in answer to your questions yes it can hold full movies, the bigger size of the ipod, the more you can hold. I have a 30gb. I dont have many films on there, but loads of music videos, atleast 40 videos at the moment plus about 1900 songs, and still have about 17Gb free.

Sanj

P.S iPod will rip you off of about 2.5gb, i bought 30gb ipod and can only use 27.5gb

Hello there,

I need more friends like you. :-)

As for how to do it, and LOTS of proof it can be done:

only search advicenators.com


Do not listen to the previous poster regarding illegal downloads. That is completely not true. With the program on the top listing in the search I am putting here for you, you can pull video right from a DVD movie, or just about any other kind of video to your IPOD with video.

You could even load it with their favorite video ahead of time, if you know what that might be.

Just a thought... :-)

DangerNerd.
