Is it possible to just simply sync videos to Fifth generation ipod?

First of all I am new with the ipod, and I am not familiar with this certain issues regarding videos on the ipod"
My question is that do you have to watch videos or TV shows that you download on itunes? Or can you just simply automatically sync the video or TV show to your Fifth Generation ipod without viewing the content my itunes librairy?
Thank who all that can help me.

I guss I'm not being clear, but here it goes again....
I click buy on the iTunes Store
It asks for my user name and password
Then it downloads my vid or what not
Then I sync my iPod
As far as I knew this was standered practice, in other words if you aready have on the computer you bought it on then you don't need to authorize it again unless you trasfer it to another computer.
Right?!?!
P.S. assuming you agree with me and every one else that buys from iTunes then yes you did say you need to authorize media twice.
The bottom line is that you must authorize your computer in order to transfer purchased videos and music to the iPod.
To do this you need to play a part of the video on your computer. It need only be a few seconds of it.
You can authorize up to 5 different computers.
If you cannot play any purchased videos on a computer, you cannot authorize it.
Authorize when you buy it then as above play it on your computer to authorize it!!!!

Does iCloud sync videos taken on my iPod touch?

Can anyone please tell me if iCloud syncs videos taken on my iPod touch and if so, where do I find them? Thank you.

Videos and photos in your camera roll are backed up when you back up to iCloud. However back up is for restoring your iOS device, you cannot selectively access or restore individual files in the iCloud backup.

Unable to sync my replacement 7th generation Ipod Nano. Previous nano had no issue. Both Win7 and Win8 Pc's fail sync. I am an admin on both machines.

I don't know why my new 7th Generation Ipod fails sync diags on both Win7 and Win8 computers. I am an admin on both machines. The computer sees the device, but ITunes does not, but yet I can eject the ipod.

Hello Dee Nano.
It sounds like your iPod nano is recognized by your PCs, but it isn’t recognized by iTunes. Try the suggestions in the article linked below, they will resolve most issues like this.

Importing Videos into 5th Generation iPod

I have a 5th Generation iPod. Whenever I try to import a video, the video imports, but there is no audio. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

What video codecs are you trying to import? The absolute best thing is to use QuickTime and export the video for your iPod. If you use QT and use the File drop down menu and then click on export it will give you that option.
Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
Hence the need for 3rd party software as per Niel's recommendation.

Error message when trying to transfer/sync video from itunes to ipod

I have never had this problem before, but I just purchased a couple music videos from itunes and then was trying to manually transfer/sync them to my ipod and then I receive the error message "Attempting to copy to the disk failed. The disk could not be read from or written to"
I can transfer/sync music just fine still, and I have transferred music videos in the past. And I checked the info tab on the music videos and they are "protected content" but I have been able to transfer other protected content videos from itunes before.
I have tried restarting itunes and the ipod, putting it in disk mode and nothing seems to work. I would appreciate someone's help, THANK YOU!

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help: "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod

Help with syncing videos and music to iPod

When I go to sync my video ipod with another computer it only gives me the option to erase all of the files that are currently on my ipod and replace them with the library I am trying to sync it with. How can I get both libraries without erasing each time?

Simply you can't; the iPod + iTunes aren't designed to work in that way.
If both computers are yours then you can authorize them with the same iTS account and synchronize iTS purchases between them using this method (link).

Can not sync video .mp4 to my ipod???

I converted all videos to .mp4 and still can't sync them to my ipod classic. It said " [name of the vid] wasn't copied because i can not be played on your ipod ..". Help me, plz. Thks so much!

If it's already in iTunes, you can reconver the video to an even more friendly iTunes format using iTunes' built in converter. Highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the menu bar.
When the video(s) has/have finished converting, configure them to sync to your iPod.

Problem syncing video from itunes to ipod

I bought two episodes of a tv show from the itunes music store. when I plug in my ipod to update, it says that "some of the songs in the itunes music library, including the song "brian regan," were not copied to the ipod "ipod" because you are not authorized to play them on this computer."
I bought these two episodes last night, on this computer, and I haven't connected this ipod to any other computers. plus, these are supposed to be tv shows... why does it say songs? I don't see the point in even purchasing videos if I can't put them on my ipod.
can anyone help?

Try playing the TV Show straight from your iTunes library. It will probably ask you for your iTMS login information. Punch it in, and everything should work fine.

Playing Music Videos in 5th Generation IPOD

I did all that was directed. I downloaded a music video from Itunes, it is now stored in my IPOD. I went to Videos, Music Videos, Artist, and then hit play. Sound, no video.
Why?
Thanks for your help

We used to have this issue on AppleTV - lots of us sent feedback using the AppleTv feedback link similar to the one given, and I'd like to think that was the spur for the feature eventually being added.
So I'd advise you to use the link the other poster gave.
