  • Is the video ipod bad

    There are so many bad posts about the video ipod i want to know if it is worth the money? seriously

    I've had mine for a week now, and really have had very little problems. Between it and locatiofree tv I got for my psp those two new toys have been taking a good potion of my time.
    Ok, so without further ado here is how I spent the past week.
    1) searching for a video converter for my pc, brought 3 , none worked for h264 video all worked for mp4 video,
    2) downloaded and sucessfully created videos with freeware encoders.
    3) spent loads of time trying to figure out why encoders didn't work. I'm a software engineer,
    4) brought 2 and downloaded 3 free mac converters. all worked as advertised.
    5) converted about 20 tivo/replaytv mpegs to mp4/h264 and uploaded to the ipod.
    6) developed a nightly batch encoding scheme utilizing our underused mac mini
    7) connected ipod to tv set with av cables
    8) figured out a way to stream ipod videos to psp via locationfree tv basestation
    In short some fuustration and a lot of fun... How was your week???

  • Converting Videos for the Video Ipod?

    ok i just bought the 60G Video IPOD, i downloaded a video from Itunes just to see if it works, i downloaded a video from Limewire, and when i went to add it to the ipod it says that it could not be added or using with the Ipod why? I need to converte it from the itunes Library? Ok once it gets downloaded into the limewire folder and i add it to itunes, what do i do next before adding it to the ipod, i am not spending 1.99 for each video that will be like 1,000 i spoend on videos..lol
    Thank you so much for your help

    I just got the Video iPod also. So far not too happy about the file type restrictions...after all I spent a year encoding MY entire DVD collectin and was thrilled not to have to take a laptop with me on travel.
    CONVERTING MOVIES for ViPOD.
    You have to have the updated Quicktime 7.0.3.
    AND then you have to open the file in QT.
    Go to EXPORT.
    Select "Movie to iPod" which will convert the file to an .m4v
    The movie will be saved in this mode as 320x240.
    However, this process is incredibly slow. It's been trying to convert a movie in .mp4 to .m4v and it's been two hours now and it looks like it's only 15% done.
    There has to be a faster conversion tool out there. For viewing a few flicks...I would have to spend days just to get 3 or 4 movies on my Video iPod.
    MY SUGGESTION: DONT BUY the ViPod YET!!!! Wait till the holidays are over or give an Apple Gift Card.

  • Any compatible USB 2.0 cards available for the video iPod?

    Any compatible USB 2.0 cards available for the video iPod?
    Dual 867
    512 RAM
    OS X 10.4.3
    I installed a TECHGEAR USB 2.0 card, the iPod shows that is active on the bus, but does not show on the desktop, or in iTunes. Epson printer works, but SanDisk does not. I have read about deep sleep issues too. USB 1.0 is painfully slow. After using FW to update our 15 Gig iPods for sooooo looooong this is one BIG step backwards. Dupid genius at the Apple store in Arden Fair said this iPod would work with a PCI 2.0 card. I am a little ticked after purchasing videos for my wife with the promise a card would work. I know, should have done more research and not asked the genius.
    Merry Christmas,

    Well, I now have a working USB 2.0 connection. BUT!!!! The lame OS X 10.4.3 sleep issue has raised its ugly head. How about supporting long time users Apple? Let's talk about supporting third party cards. I run a TV station and love my Mac's, but this legacy USB 2.0 stuff just stinks!
    WAIT!!! My Mac is only fours years old. Is that too old? I just want to make my dual 867 sleep! Why can’t I put make my dual 867 sleep after installing a third party card? All the new Mac’s at the station work just fine. Now convince my 62-year-old mom to switch.

  • Down loaded a new video and it won't load onto the video ipod

    I downloaded an episode of Baby Einsteins for my son to watch on the video ipod. iTunes gives the message "Pirates Treasure" was not copied onto the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod. What more can I do. I have a new 12" powerbook, the newest video iPod with plenty of space, and all of the latest software updates! It's frusturating that service for this type of problem is so hard to get. Can anyone help me?

  • Bottom Line: Ripping DVD's into the Video iPod

    Ok, lets make one thread that just posts solutions on how to get DVD's onto the video iPod.
    Posting links to software and images of working iPod would be a huge help.
    Let's get it settled, once and for all.

    1.Get one of many programs to rip through the security encoding and get the video into a usable video file.
    2.Convert to MPEG-4 with Videora or PSP Video 9. (Or preferably H.264 when someone's got that ironed out.)
    3.Import to iTunes.
    4.Sync.
    The end.

  • MAJOR Flaw or Bug in the Video iPod

    Hey everyone,
    I believe I have found a flaw or at least a bug in the Apple 60 Gig Video iPod.
    If you play a movie on the iPod it will not let you shut down the unit until you play a song, going back in to the menu screens does not help.
    Here is the scenario, you have downloaded a movie to your iPod and you play it, you pause the movie and try and shut down by pressing and holding down the play/pause button and nothing happens.
    You go back to the main iPod menu and again you try and shut down the unit by pressing and holding down the play/pause button and again nothing happens.
    The only way you can get the unit to shut down it to play a song, then press and hold down the play/pause button and it shuts down.
    I have tried this on 3 different 60gig Video iPods and they all do it.
    Now what I have found out is that if your iPod is in a Video dock so you can play it on your TV the iPod works, if you press and hold the play/pause button it shuts down right away like it should.
    I called Apple tech support about this and they had no clue, they had me reload the OS back on to the iPod and of course that did nothing.
    You guys should really try this on your iPods, I think Apple has a bug with these units and I hope that it is not a hardware issue and something that can be fixed via a software update.
    iPod 60 Gig   Windows XP Pro  

    Ok I have more info on this for you, I am playing a DVD that I installed on the iPod it is 615Meg Mp4 file, it plays perfect no sync problems at all.
    I have timed it and I have to wait 2 min and 30 sec before I can turn the unit off once I stop the movie. Now if I play that same movie in my video dock, I can shut down the iPod instantly without having any wait time, I can even shut down the movie while it is playing without having to go back to a menu.

  • Question about the new iPod Touch 5G?

    When in October will it come out? On the Apple site it says it will come in October. Does that mean October 1st? Also i'm debating in which color to get I might get yellow or blue, do you think the yellow color looks sorta greenish? Many people are saying it looks green a little and I don't see it! But I think the pink looks orange. I saw a test video of the new ipod in the store and the pink looked orange lol. thanks!

    When in October will it come out? On the Apple site it says it will come in October. Does that mean October 1st?
    Unlikely. And only Apple knows.  But when Apple is non-specific on a date, it almost never means the earlest date, and in some cases they have had to add days to the month, as in when the iPhone 1st gen was released it was the 32nd of the month :-)
    Colors are a personal thing.  If you have a store that sells iPod Touchs, then visit the store when they start to display them, and check out the colors in person, as colors on computer screens are rarely "True" colors because most monitors are not calibrated.

  • Using the video iPod with the Bose SoundDock

    I just purchased the new video iPod and Bose SoundDock, I noticed that I can't fast forward through MP3s when using the SoundDock remote, anyone else notice this? Downloaded the latest updates from Apple's website, didn't help...

    Hey,
    I had exactly the same problem and updated both my iTunes software and my iPod Software (downloaded the latest iPod updater) and the problem has been fixed. My iPod video is now running software version 1.1 and I can fasst forward and rewind using the Bose remote with no problems now!
    I loved the SoundDock before, but now it just feels all that more complete. Hope it helps.

  • What's new about the new ipod touch ?

    I have bought a new iPod touch three weeks ago in the US. Now I see on the Apple homepage, that there is obviously a new iPod Touch available. Does anyone know about the new features it offers compared to the one I have bought ?

    Hopefully it had iOS 5 so you don't need to do the udate
