Converting videos for your iPod.

I have a video iPod and am having some trouble with adding a certain two videos to it. I imported the videos and then " Converted Selection For iPod.." but whenever i play the videos on my iPod there is no audio. Can anyone help?

Apparently if you have a muxed video (a video where the video and sound are seperate) iTunes can't convert it with audio. very disappointed in Apple in this matter.

How to Rip DVD and Convert Video for Your iPad On ...

Aiseesoft iPad Converter Suite is newly released software for iPad fans. It can rip any DVD files (DVD-Video, DVD folder and DVD IFO file) to iPad, convert all popular videos/audios to iPad formats and transfer files from PC to iPad, from iPad to PC and from iPad to iPad. It works similar to iTunes. So why do you always buy movies and songs from iTunes with extra money? It can help you make use of your resources.
The product is very easy in use. You just need download, install and run the trial version.
The product is multifunctional. It can trim, crop, edit video effect, merge, add text and image watermark, select audio track and subtitle, adjust video settings and snapshot.
If you are Mac user, you can choose Aiseesoft iPad Converter Suite for Mac.

To create an iTunes playlist, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select New Playlist. Or at the bottom of the iTunes source list is a + button. Selecting the + button will add a new Playlist.
Enter a name for the Playlist.
Select Music under Library in the iTunes source list to view all music available in your iTunes library. Select and drag the music that you want in the Playlist to the Playlist and then release. This does not copy the music. This creates a pointer to the music in your iTunes library only. To delete a song from the Playlist, select the song followed by delete. Deleting a song from a Playlist does not delete the song from your iTunes library. You can have the same song in multiple playlists.
With the iPhone connected to iTunes, under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences select Sync Music and below select selected playlists. All iTunes playlists are available in the window below. Select the Playlist or Playlists that you want transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.
To add additional music to your iPhone, add the music to the Playlist or Playlist in iTunes that you have selected to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync. To remove a song from your iPhone, delete the song from the Playlist that you have selected to be transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.

Converting videos for the ipod -HELP!!!!

I have a few videos in my itunes. I can watch them and they work just fine,but when I attempt to drag and drop them onto my itouch,they won't go because it says that they cannot be played on the ipod.So I right-click and hit convert for ipod and it goes through that long process and creates basically another copy of the movie,just in a different format.When I play that new copy in my itunes,there's no sound.When I put it onto my itouch and I play it,there's no sound either.The video works,it's just the sound that's not there.
Help?

Your source video file is probably muxed.
I don't believe iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
Try MPEG Streamclip.

Converting videos for my ipod??

i downloaded a video and want to put it on my video ipod..when i tried it said it couldnt,so i clicked the thing that converts it to i guess ipod format or something..anyway its a one hour movie and its not even half way done converting is it suppose to take this long,am doing something wrong?..also do i have to convert every kind of movie or show i put on it??
-help me please,thankyou

Converting DVD or video files to an ipod friendly format is very processor and RAM hungry - these files can take some time to convert, after all the convertor has to work on each and every frame you view. I tend to run my conversion tasks overnight in batches (I use Xilisoft software) so it doesn't bother me. As a rough guide a 45min avi file conversion takes approx 15 mins and a 4Gb DVD about an hour - these times will obviously vary with the spec of machine, I have a 3.0GHz, 1Gb RAM laptop...

Convert video for ipod error

Recently iTunes has stopped converting videos for me. When I right click and choose 'Convert selection for ipod' I now get "Error occured while converting 'file name'. The required file cannot be found."
The file uploads into the library and plays great. This has just started happening in the last week or so, before then it worked fine. I am saving the original files as Quicktime MOV files and in the same location as they were being saved before.

Hi mvlys and all,
firstly, I assume you mean to suggest changing the preferences under the pull-down menu Edit => Preferences and then activate the Register Card "Advanced" and change the "iTunes Music folder location" to the default at installation.
I have never changed this and do not allow iTunes to move any media to the default directory, so there is nothing to change on my installation.
The message displayed in the pop-up says: "The required file cannot be found". This sounds more like iTunes was expecting to find some file belonging to iTunes at some specific location, but cannot. Which file is however not mentioned.
Is this forum being monitored by Apple?
Can we expect them to pick up on this error.

Best Resolution for your ipod Vids

I was wondering if anyone figured out the perfect resolution for your ipod videos. I converted some divx files but the pictures gets squeezed or strecthed and it doesnt look as good. the quality is great but i dont like seeing the "universale studios planet earth" looking like an egg.

There is no such thing as a perfect resolution for all videos.
When you convert, you'll want to keep the same aspect ratio as the source video... that will yield the best display.
If you're converting to MPEG-4, the maximum resolution is 480x480.
If H.264, then the max resolution is 320x240. Keep within those limits, but keep the same aspect ratio as the source.

Is there a way at all to put music videos in your ipod nano?

Is there a way at all to put music videos in your ipod nano?

No. The nano is not capable of video playback. You would need the fifth-generation full sized iPod for that.

Try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
