Ipod and video conversion


Question Posted Sunday November 30 2008, 4:23 am

Just bought an ipod and im not really sure how to add videos off my computer onto my ipod.

I tried adding a wmv file, a 3gp file and an avi file and none will work. Should I be converting them? How do I do it and what do I convert them to?
It wont do it automatically.

Thankyou.

Install and run this:
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Click "add video", and select your video. The video must be a video file, not a DVD. Search "dvd ripper" for software that will get a valid file off of a DVD, and ask me another question if you have trouble.

In the upper right of Any Video Converter, choose "Customized MP4 Movie". In the lower right, change Video Size to 640x480. Also, make sure that none of the values are higher than these:
Video Bitrate: 1500
Video Framerate: 30
Audio Bitrate: 160
Sample Rate: 48000

Click "Encode". Once it's finished, go to File -> open output folder. Move the output file to your iPod in the same way you move music.

Tell me if this doesn't work. I don't have an iPod to test it on.
