Nikon Camera .mov iPod video

Hi
I understand that I can utilise Apple's Camera Connector, Belkin's Camera Link or Belkin's Media Reader to move images either directly from my camera / CF Card to the iPod video.
However, in addition to still images, my Nikon shoots reasonable 640x480 Quicktime movies. What I'd like to know is whether any of these devices (or similar) could be used to move .mov video files from the camera/card to the iPod.
I'm traveling to India for a month and would prefer not to take a powerbook with me. I'm hoping I can find a way to get all the media from my CF card directly onto the iPod.
btw. (this would be a bonus but not essential.) If I managed to transer a 640x480 .mov onto the iPod, would it play?

My review for Connector posted yesterday:
"Great Potential but not mature (yet).
Connector is a great idea and interface between our 30Gb iPod (video) and Canon Powershot S80 works basically fine. Connector delivers as promised, but -unlike Apple- the provided software support and functionality by current version of iPod software (v1.0.0) is far too minimal:
- you can't make a (previewed) selection of images to be transferred. It's ‘all or nothing’ and ‘images only’ transfer (jpeg). Sadfully other camera content like video files, is ignored. Therefore you can only free up the camera memory space used by images. OK, immediately viewing those camera produced avi's is too much asked considering capabilities of current iPod’s and its file type support, but just basic transfer of all camera data as mature backup medium should be (made) possible.
- Transfer speed is very slow. Even though they both support USB2.0 current throughput is about 15-30 minutes per 1GB (worse than USB1.1 spec!) and drains batteries rapidly. Because of that you run the risk of running out of batteries on either unit before complete transfer is finished, especially with nowadays common but big memory cards. This wouldn’t be that much of a problem if smaller selections of camera content were possible or USB2.0 transfer speed was really achieved (60GB/s)…
If Apple is able to improve compatibility, performance and feature set through future iPod software updates, the usefulness of this Connector is promising.
For now limited use (still need extra camera mem-cards), but cheap ‘gadget’ (modern camera’s come with 2,5” screens for viewing too)…"
Therefore answer to your 1st question if transfer of .mov from Nikon2iPod through Connector will work: Not sure, but unlikely since softwaresupport for Connector within Ipod (Photo & Video) is currently aimed for transferring and viewing photos (Jpeg) ONLY.
2nd question "will 640x480 play on iPod": NO, maximum support is 480x480 mov
Good luck & have fun in India

TRANSFER PHOTOS FROM CAMERA TO IPOD VIDEO

Does anyone know if there is a device that is compatible with iPod 80gb Video, to enable the use of the iPod Video as a hard drive to capture photos (files) directly from the camera. I have a Sony A100 DSLR. Going on a trip and would like to use the disk space available on my iPod. Belkin has one that is only for 3rd Generation iPods.

I'm having a similar issue. You can find compatible cameras and info http://www.apple.com/ipod/compatibility/cameraconnector.html/
and check the online manual for your iPod. Section 4
You might have to contact Sony to see if it's compatible. I bought a connector (from the Apple Store) iPod to USB that connects with my camera's dock (I have a Casio Exilim 850) but I can't get it to work with either of my two card readers, even though it says in the manual that it will. If you know which card readers are compatible PLEASE let me know.
Good luck

The plastic sheet that came with ipod video

Hi, everyone
I kept on the plastic sheet that covers the front face of the new ipod for about a week after I bought it. Now I'm thinking to remove it. I am kind of worried about the damage to my screen when I remove the plastic sheet. Did you guys take extra caution when removing it or just leave it on always?
Thanks

I took mine off as soon as I got it, and I put it right into a neoprene case with a plastic cover to protect the screen. Nothing happened to mine when I took off the plastic, so just peel it carefully and you should be fine.

Ipod Video 30Gb no sound music and video

Since two days I have a strange problem on my Ipod Video 30Gb.
On the display it seems that the tracks are playing or that the video is playing. But when I listen through the headphones I hear nothing. Even when I connect the Ipod to a dock or a dockspeaker nothing happens. I allready tried to reset the Ipod and I even installed it's software again but nothing helps.
The last thing I did before the problem occured was that I have upgraded my Itunes to version 8.0.0.35.
Please give me some suggestions how to fix this problem.

Hello..Does anyone in this community know what the following error code indicates   0x8002006E   I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.

I was trying to burn a DVD from files in a burn folder. They were pictures from my Nikon camera. I can play videos and movies from the same dvd player.    Thanks for any help you can offer,

Thanks for your reply:
I did find an error log related to the error code and tried all suggestions on the list of recommendations, still no luck
I definitely am running OS X10.5.8 (hopefully will be updating later on this month)
I tried several brand new discs from the same box, still no luck.
My last option is to go out and try a different brand, guess I'll go with Verbatim this time but I think I'll poke around some more before buying 20 more new discs.

Log and transfer only works with AVCHD media, which this camera doesn't shoot. You need to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the media.

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.

I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Pro

I have Video camera movies that are HD format.. I am doing editing work on them using Final Cut Pro, but using DV PAL format for the projects I am editing. When I then tried to copy my work done in FCP Project that's originally DV PAL , into a new FCP Project that is HD, and tried reconnect media with original HD movies (video), the sequence project got distorted for all the text, shapes used and all.. everything changed its orientation and scale.. Is there a way by which I can preserve my work done on DV PAL and switch it preserving its proportions, scale and orientation, but on a HD project sequence?? Appreciate your help and advice..

Yes. A couple of ways that might work.
First Way
What you need to do is load one of your hd clips in the viewer and edit into a new HD sequence. Does it display correctionly?
OK, select the clip in the hd timeline and copy (command-c). Now go to the HD sequence with the material that's distorted. Select all (command-a) and paste attributes (option-v) and choose basic motion and distort. That should maek things work. What won't work is anything that you've adjusted as far as basic motion or distort in your PAL sequence. That I'm pretty sure you'll have to redo.
Second Way.
Choose your original PAL sequence and do a Media Manage changing the sequence preset to the appropriate HD paramenters with the media offline. You then should be able to reconnect these clips with your original HD media.

Does anyone know a converter from the new iTunes TV/movie file type to one that will work on my 5th generation iPod video?

I just tried to load some new TV shows from my iTunes onto my 5th generation iPod video and it says the video format is not supported. I currently have dozens of TV shows and movies on the iPod, I just wanted to put some new stuff on there. So I need to know if there is anyway of converting the new iTunes video format into one that will run on my 5th generation iPod.
Thnaks in advanced.

When you drag a movie from the Media Browser to the Time lIne in GarageBand, you will see a pop-up "Extracting Audio".
The Movie and the audio file will appear in separate tracks. You can copy the audio region from the sound track to a different track to keep it safe and then hide the Movie track.

DVD movies to iPod video format

I often travell on official business, I am trying to rip a DVD to my ipod. My friend told me that Sothink ipod- converter can convert DVD movies to IPod video format. I have downloaded and try it,I think the Sothink IPod Video Converter is designed to be an easy company for my IPod.

If you want a really organized package for ripping your dvds into .mp4 "ipod" format use the dvd Decrypter and Videora ipod conveter. They are very organized and they put you in control of the video/audio settings... And it couldn't be easier. Here are the links if you wanna give these FREE programs a shot
Videora ipod converter - http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
Dvd Decrypter - http://www.mrbass.org/dvdrip/
ps... You need both because after ripping your dvd it becomes a .vob file..Ipod cannot read this so you must use videora to make it an .mp4 "ipod friendly" format.. Reply if problems occur please!!! Thanks...

Ipod video 60gb how to transfer movies from DVD to mi ipod

i just got my new ipod video i want to transfer my DVD movies to my ipod how do i do that

i just got my new ipod video i want to transfer my
DVD movies to my ipod how do i do that
I use PQ DVD. It is easy to use just open it up, insert your DVD, hit play on the interactive menu and press record. It will send the file to a pre-determind file and then just open iTunes and drag it accross. As simple as that.

Can you move a video taken on the iPad from the camera roll to 'Videos' without syncing through iPhoto?

Pretty simple question that I can not figure out the answer to. Can you move a video taken on the iPad from the camera roll to 'videos' on the go?

I can do it on my iPhone and, according to the iPad manual (p. 58), you can do it on an iPad.
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

Everytime I try to use the video camera, my ipod automatically restarts???

Everytime I try to use the video camera, my ipod automatically restarts. I just need to bring the clicker to the Video section on the main menu for it to turn on and off again. I have to scroll over it really fast so it doesn't restart. My dad bought it a few months ago and I just opened it about a week ago. So far, I've synced it once, taken it out out without first ejecting it, and using it on a lamp iHome. Should restoring the ipod do the trick? Is this a common issue with the rest of you?

Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue.

IPod Video + camera connector issue

I have iPod Video 60G and recently bought camera connector to have an ability to download pictures from my camera (Sony DSC-V1) on iPod. Also I have Belkin card reader 8 in 1 (F5U248). What I have read from Apple site and other different sources both of this devices should work with camera connector. I have tried both versions of iPod software 1.0 and 1.1. Whatever I have tried gives me on iPod only one message: "ready to connect" and nothing happens after that. It seems like there is no identification if anything connected to iPod at all. I may asume that this is a hardware problem from iPod side. iPod even does not try to initiate download. Did anyone see such kind a behaviour? Appriciate any information.
Thank you

30G iPod doesn't play audio in movies or videos

My 30G iPod doesn't play audio in movies or videos... Can anybody help me?
Thanks!

What is the source of the videos and movies? Downloaded from the iTunes store or did you convert them from other sources? If the latter...
QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.
iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files

One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...
