IPod video lag

Problem > my ipod video lags when it plays some movies. when i play music videos(only videos i have on ipod now) some tend to be aprox 1 sec delay. its odd when a singer says somthing and one second later the words follow on my headphones. this only happens to some of my videos (about half) while the other half are perfect. it will happen 100% of the time to those songs so its not a random ipod lag.
Process >i use "imTOO" video converter to get my files to mp4 format and run windows xp. while some videos lag others are fine with none. i tried multiple times to convert files(mpeg,avi) to mp4 with no programs running with still no success. i have also tried updating my ipod with no programs running with no success.
Question > so i was wondering if this has happen to anybody else out there with a gen5 video iPod? if so were you able to fix this problem and how did you do this? is it the program i am using? any help would be great. thanks.

this is the email that i have recieved from the support guy. hope this helps out because i havent tried it.
Dear user,
Please modify frame rate on the right panel of the main interface to correct it. The default value for this item is "Auto". Please enter a concrete number for it to have a try. You must highlight the file item in the program before modifying anything. I think you can try following numbers: 10, 15, 25, 29.97, 50 and 60. Thank you.
If you still have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me again.

5th Gen. 60 GB iPod Video Lag

My iPod Video (60 GB, 5th Gen.) is lagging badly. Especially the games, although the menus and songs lag sometimes as well. I have never had thisproblem with my mini, but with the Video, this problem has been there since day 1.

lagging... you could say so.
the second post from an owner not really happy with the new 60gb-version. i've got a few issues with that machine.
the new design might be flash but the fact that this plastic-front can come undone so easily... I donno 'bout that.
F*, it's an ipod. It's meant to be carried around as much as I want it to! Isn't that the purpose? Surely, if I go to work and carry my Ipod in some superheavyduty protection until it's finally placed on my desk to sit and wait until I retreat back home... Likley I won't have problems. I've read a lot of comments from people taking that much care but honestly - it's fairly expensive and for that much you should expect very high quality for every single ipod sold.
Mine functions at random although I've taken care of it reasonably. Apple's latest outcome sometimes seems a bit touchy indeed.

IPod Video 5th Generation Upload Video to IPod Problem.

Hi all,
I recently purcase an IPod video, and I have problem with uploading video from Itunes to my IPod. Is working fine when I set it to automatically sync. But when I change the setting to manually and drag the video file into the Movies folder (Itunes) is doesn't seem to be upload to my IPod. Music is working fine. Any one know why.
Thank heaps in advance.

Well this is a hard one,
You need to do a few things.
First you need to get it ripped in a file format by using questionable-legality software (Cough* like mine*). Or you could use illegal-ish (but not really illegal) software such as Limewire. But if for SOME reason you already have it in that from. Here is what you do.
Download this software.
http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/download.php
It is free and really easy to use. This will convert your movie file to compatible format, MPEG-4 (or Quick-Time).
Ok that was the easy part!
Now you will have to manually set the Audio bit rate to match to Video Bit rate in the Videora. The help tool will show you how to do it. You may get lucky and it will be the get the same bit rate for both. And then you are good to go! (it is worth a try, up to this point, some videos auto convert exactly to try it)
BUT IF NOT: (here we go)
To get the Audio and Video bit rate, change your view mode in the file folder where your original file is located to filmstrips. Now, hover your mouse over the video file, you should see Audio & Video bit rate. If not you will have to fiddle with Videora to get it right. Now change to bit rates in your options in Videora to match the original file. If the audio is off from the video, your sound will lag while your video plays or vise versa. Meaning, at about 5 min your audio could be off by over 45 sec.
Alright, you got your video. Now drag and drop it into Itunes, and drop it into your ipod. There you go! Easy right?
Well if you are lost after the “BUT IF NOT” part and you can’t get it working sufficiently before that point. My suggestion is to give up, unless you are great with computer fiddling.
So all in all it can be done, but it is VERY hard to do! I have done it, but it takes a while to work (2-3 hours-ish).
Hope this helped you, God Life

Video lagging

I have put many videos on my ipod without a problem, but I have this one music video that when I put it on my ipod it lags a good 4 seconds so the video is playing alot faster than the audio. This video plays perfectly through windows media player, and when i get itunes to play it or play it on my ipod it lags. The quality of the video is not great, so I don't think it's because the ipod can't handle it. Anyone know if it is possible to fix it? normally I wouldn't care but it's my favorite music video so I'd like to have it.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I'd love to know if anyone could help me out on this issue.

5th generation that is!

My iPod Videos are no longer reading on my iPOD Video!!

Hi,
I have a 30GB iPod Video (5th Generation) and just recently all my iPod Music Videos and movies are no longer watchable and aren't showing in music videos and movies playlists on my iPod! Once I plug my iPod into iTunes on my mac, it says there are no videos, even though the video files are still on the iPod and can play via iTunes, but are being read as audio files?? I hope this makes sense. If someone could help me solve this problem, it would be much appreciated!!
Thanks, David

I wish I could help, but I am having a similar problem. I have several movies which are Nero Recodes and they worked great on my 60GB until about 2-3 months ago. Now, they don't work at all. They will play in Itunes. I have severla smaller clips which still play and I just uploaded a movie using DVD2Pod which plays great. I have deleted them from my system and reloaded them (checking first to make sure they played on my computer--which they did) and still bupkis! Any insights?

Ipod nano 4gb and ipod video 80g with windows vista

hello! i've been trying (rather unsuccessfully) to sync the ipod nano to my laptop which has windows vista OS. i have the latest itunes 7.2 (just updated today from 7.1) and i always get the "found new hardware" pop-up everytime i plug the ipod nano via usb port. i also did the 5r's, but still the computer cannot and will not detect any software. i even downloaded the softwareupdater28-06-2006.exe but it will not run because it's superseded by itunes 7. my friend has an ipod video 80gb and i tried connecting it too, same thing popped up. both ipods do not show in "my computer" so i cannot even backup my songs! ah well. i just need to get the driver for the ipod i suppose. please help, any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

i have been having the same problem. My laptop was upgrade to windows vista and worked perfectly fine with my ipod and with others which had previously been used with the computer when it was running XP. My IPOD unfortunately crashed and need to be replaced. I brought it back to the laptop and connected it. it was not recognised but the others still are!
I have been looking on the internet and you are the only other i can find who is suffering this problem. i have looked in device manager and the new ipod is recognised as a 'other device', whereas the ipod that still works is classed as a 'portable device'. i have looked at the drivers and tried to install them by copying the drivers on the original ipod, but have not succeded. Since updating itunes to 7.2 i have been getting a 'do not disconnect' message on the ipod but it still does not appear in the sources list in itunes.
I have tried everything and am about to give up please HELP!
Someone somewhere must know a way around this........ as the London apple store "has never heard of this problem"

Movie downloaded from itunes not playing on ipod video

I bought a movie off of itunes and downloaded it to my ipod video. But the movie won't play on my ipod. It plays perfectly fine on my computer. Why isn't playing on my ipod video? Is there something i have to do first before videos are able to play on my ipod?

Is it one film or all of them? I'm having a similar problem where this one film I accidentily deleted that used to play got reloaded and now plays fine on my computer but won't sync onto my iPod. Everything's checked off and ready to go on my computer, but when I sync the film simply isn't there.

Downloaded the A-Team to my ipod video but can't find it

hello, I had just recently purchased the ipod video and over the weekend decided to test it out and I downloaded from apple's website the A-team now i can view it on my itunes under tv show but when i look for it on my ipod video there is no drop down menu for TV show i see videos,music,photos but no menu for TV show what can i do?
thanks

i can view it on my itunes under tv show but when i look for it on my ipod video there is no drop down menu for TV show
I would contact ITMS and "REQUEST" they correct the matter. Whoever created the file did not properly include all of the required meta-data information which would create a valid path for file display on the iPod. Further, there seems to be a growing occurance (i.e., the lack of quality control) during the production of these files. While I might expect a small number of such files to crop up on occasion, I expect a commercial marketer to respond in a professional manner or suffer the legal ramifications of their failure to correct known product defects.
Be that as it may, you can of course, temporarily work around the problem by creating a "Playlist" to contain your TV episodes by series title. Just remember to order them properly within the playlist to maintain proper play order.

Ipod Video to TV does not work :(

I just bought the iPod AV Connection Kit today, it came with the Universal Dock a RCA cable that connects to line out, but for some reason I have trouble displaying videos. It seems like my sound works but video does not show up on TV.
I tried changing setting on iPod to TV>ON still does not work, I tried S-Video still no picture. Can anyone help? Is my cord or dock defectetive? Thanks
iPod Video Windows XP

There is no "Photos" library in itunes, this is why its not listed in iTUnes source list. On the PC it just takes photos from the folder you tell it to to add to the iPod.
What you have to do is on the ipod, goto Photos>Slide show settings>TV Out and set it to "On" or "Ask" whichever you prefer.
On - This setting sends the signal/Photo to the TV screen and not on the ipod screen.
Ask - This setting means everytime on the ipod it will ask you (When you goto slide show) if you want to turn TV Out on or off

Cannot delete playlists from iPod Video

When I connect mu iPod Video to my PC or laptop using Windows XP, my iTunes opens, my iPod is recognized yet I can't see any playlists anywhere in my iPod when connected to the computers. When I disconnect, I have 6 different playlists that I've created over time. I want to delete these as needed. They seem to be created from my "On The Go" playlist when I create one. How can I delete? I've read and followed instructions on the Help site. The biggest problem is that there are no playlists shown when I select iPod from the source list once connected. I can't try to delete if I can't see it.

To clear the entire On-the-Go playlist, on your IPOD go to Music>Playlist>On-the-Go>Clear Playlist
To remove an individual song in a On-the-Go playlist, select the song in the playlist, press and hold the center button until the song flashes.
Hope that helps you!

Trouble with a new iPod video (and a question)

My new iPod video is causing my computer to freeze when I connect it. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. After that, it seemed to be going OK, but it only downloaded about 500m (of a total of 50g) before iTunes froze again and stopped downloading (of course the "Do Not Disconnect" icon on the iPod stayed there, but I had no choice but to disconnect it!).
All of my music is on an external Seagate hard drive coming in through one of my USB inputs. The iPod is on the other USB input. Could this be part of the problem? I don't think it's a drive letter issue since it did start downloading the last time before freezing.
Also, I'm wondering if I can use my old firewire cable from my previous iPod to speed up the transfer process once I actually get the thing working.
Any help would be much appreciated!

New ITUNES Does not allow me to sync and wiped out song on my ipod video

I was prompted to update my ITUNES software (7.02 I believe). Once I did this, it told me that I needed to update my Quick Time Software, which I also did.
I did as I was told and took my IPOD Video out on my walk. It deleted every song on my out except for two. When I attempeted to re synch the IPOD it will not allow me to do it.
The playlists on the IPOD appear to be locked.
HELP PLEASE

I am having the same problem. My library is not showing up on my computer but is on my phone. The only thing on my computer is the 3 songs I just bought. My message says that my Iphone is synced with another library. I do not want to lose the 100+ songs on my iphone. I do not see them anywhere on my Mac computer. Should I sync or will I lose all music?

IPod Video to TV not working

I can't seem to get my video to display on TV...
-(I'm using apples cable, and have TV video set to Out, iPod video 60g)
Nothing appears on screen, and audio is just static
I've tried on 3 seperate TVs - all via composite inputs.
The video in question was an iTunes Comedy Central show (Lewis Black)
Are we unable to view d'loaded vid's on TV? Or is there something I'm missing.
Thanks,xandra

Have you tried to play a different video?
No, don't have
How about playing a song to see if the audio works?
no; just static with these cables
Might simply be a bad cable.
I think you're right, Chris.
At this point, I'm pretty sure it's a bum cable.
Tried the following:
connected using dock with S-video + audio cabling (this worked fine)
connected using my older ipod - to composite audio - Also fine, but naturally no video
Only drag is that I bought the cable as part of the Apple Connection Kit. So exchanging just the cable may be an issue (Circuit City)
Thanks, xandra
