Video podcast format for iPods

I created a video podcast and the RSS feed was successfully accepted by iTunes.
The first two episodes download through iTunes fine. The only problem is that the video file would not transfer to any video iPod. The first two episodes were 320x240 .mov files.
So, I read some sites and found out that it needed to be a .m4v file. I edit the show in iMovie. After finishing the third episode, I used iMovie to "Share to iPod" which I figured would format the file into a proper format for an iPod.
The 3rd episode is uploaded onto the RSS feed, but iTunes doesn't recognize this and make the file available for download. It still only has the first two episodes for download.
Any suggestions? Do I need to use Quicktime Pro and use that to convert the files?
If it helps, here is a link to the feed in iTunes.

Thanks for the help in advance.

I dont know about doing it the "easy" way with apps that do all the work for you. Here it is the "hard" manual way.
You should create a graphic specifically for this purpose and upload that JPEG file to the pace where your podcast episodes are hosted. Then you can post the URL of the picture into your RSS feed, in the top part where all the main info about your podcast is. It should look like this:
<itunes:image href="http://www.kutvfreshair.com/podcast/bloopersLogo.jpg" />
where the "href" is the http of your picture.

30G video iPod not playing podcast video

My video iPod won't play podcast video. I get sound, but no video, just a still picture. Video plays fine on my computer. I just recently upgraded iTunes, but I was having the problem before that. Any suggestions?

My video iPod won't play video files. I get sound, but no video, just a still picture. Video plays fine on my computer. I used to be able to play the same video files before. When I do a "Get info", the files are of MPEG-4 type. Any suggestions?
By the way, I have played around with the video settings also.

Rating Podcasts and Videos on the iPod

How does one rate Podcasts and Videos on the iPod. I can do it in iTunes but have not figured out how to do it on the iPod unless I first convert the file so that it appears to be an audiobook or music file.
I use ratings to determine 1) I've listened to it so now delete it, 2) I'm in the process of listening, 3) this episode has some info I need to reference but once I do I can delete, 4) and 5) this is good stuff - don't delete it ever.
Thanks.

well the blue dots along side the podcasts and movies will show you whether you have listened/are in the process of listening/watching. and you can delete them as you finish with them by swiping from right to left over the title and hitting the 'delete button' that comes up.
(i would recommend at least reading my posts in this thread though http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8755314#8755314 - this isn't a major problem, but has been flagged up as something which occurs with the ipod deletion method, and is worth knowing about, but would take me ages to explain it again!)
so that would effectively manage your first 2 ratings for you, but i'm not sure it is possible to rate them in the same way you can rate music.
suggest it to apple using the feedback page:

How to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune?

Can anyone tell me how to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune? Because I can't see the Music Videos and the Podcast section in iTune under Device when my iPod is connected to my computer. Thanks

iTunes doesn't have a separate *Music Videos* section. In iTunes these are just part of the main Music library. To manually drag a music video to yout iPod drag it onto the iPod or a compatible playlist. To remove, look for it in Music on the iPod and delete.
I think podcasts only work properly when placed on the iPod via the sync tabs. If you manually drag and drop then the files may get treated as general audio & video files.

5.5 Gen Video Ipod rebooting when trying to play certain PodCasts.

Hi,
After enjoying an Ipod Nano for a year and loving every minute, I went ahead and purchased the new 80GB Video iPod.
Its great but it has a tendency to reboot for no apparent reason when playing certain PodCasts. For example: Its impossible to play the Buzzcast episode: BuzzCast 09/27/06 - "Microsoft protects your ****". The Ipod shuts off and reboots every time. I'm using Itunes 7.0.1 and the Ipod is running the latest available firmware.
Can anyone else who also owns the new 80GB iPod download this particular episode and confirm?
By the way, I've also noticed that even though the iPod is connected / docked with iTunes and clearly visible in the panel to the left, The message "Waiting for iPod" is displayed when trying to re-sync a while later. The only way to get iTunes to make contact with the iPod again is to physically disconnect the cable and reconnect, (even though the iPod icon was still clearly visible to the left thus indicating already established contact with the iPod) Weird!
Anyone else having this experience?
Input appreciated.
Kind regards / Alex

WHAT was apple thinking when they released iTunes 7.0 and firmware 1.2!? I installed in on my 60gb Video and the whole thing went to pot.
1. It sounded horrible
2. It would only allow me to download about 25% of my movies to the iPod (I have a large library and I take movies on and off depending on what I feel like for the trip I am taking.)
AppleCare Support was USELESS. Here is what I finally figured out to get the pod working right again:
1. Uninstalled iTunes 7 from my computer (PC).
2. Went into the registry editor and deleted all remaining references to iTunes.
3. Restored the firmware to the version that came with the iPod last January.
4. Used the 2006.06.28 firmware updater
5. Installed iTunes 6.0.5
It works like a charm, just like it did before Apple "made things better."
AppleCare told me that they could not support songs ripped from my CD's, or any video that had not been purchased from iTunes. I am certain that the reason for this had nothing to do with their wanting a monopoly on music and video that will work on an iPod. Then he offered to report the problem I was having to their development team.
I asked him if other people were having problems with iTunes 7. He said the question was not relevant to my problems! I pressed him more for an answer and he continued to parrot what Apple has obviously told him to say. "My new 80gb Video is working fine. I have not had the problems you are having."
DON'T UPGRADE TO ITUNES 7!!!!
I have ordered an 80gb since he said they work so flawlessly. Reading in this discussion, it appears that plenty of new 80gb users are frustrated too.

Video Podcast resolutions and iPod not mixing?

When I go to export my video file from iMovie I change a few settings for output so that the video resolution is larger than 320x240. People have been telling me that they're not able to put the podcast on their video iPods. What do I have to do to get it to be able to go on their iPods?

OMG, thank you! someone who actually has the same problem as I do. Could you specify which podcasts don't sync?
By the way, the hosts are being lazy, they won't answer to this problem for some reason

Playing Video Podcasts on my new Video iPod?

Just got in my new 30 gig. video iPod and spent several hours charging it up and loading all my music, podcasts and video podcasts. However, I haven't been able to watch any video podcasts. It will play the audio but that's it. What am I not doing right or was this just a misunderstanding on my part?
Thanks.
Brian

Just figured it out. I was trying to watch the videos under the music section. Once I looked under 'videos' everything was cool.
Life. is. good.

30 gig video, podcasts crash the ipod with iTunes 7.0.1

has anyone had their ipod crash only when playing podcasts? short podcasts are fine, but 50 minute or more, crash and restart the ipod. playing music is fine.

I have noticed two things with my 30 gig Video Ipod since i updated the software thru iTunes 7. First all my podcasts syncs that are happening with Album artwork are crashing the iPod and making it restart and the second is that it has also affected some songs albeit selectively. I tried turning the album artwork off and only once did one of the five podcasts i downloaded did work!
All the Podcasts or most of the ones that I had downloaded before iTunes 7 updater for iPod do tend to work but there is no pattern.
The reason I love apple and my iPod is the sheer magic of podcasts that are my companion and daily dose of caffeine en route to work...and I hate to get any glitches.
Can somebody walk through the step by step procedure to correct this or does one wait for another update from Apple?

30 Gig Video iPod reboots when playing certain podcasts

Hi everyone,
I listen to an audio podcast called Diggnation. I usually put it on my iPod so I can listen to it in the car on my way to/from work.
I have posted about this over at the Revision 3 forums. Here is the thread for anyone who may be interested:
http://www.revision3.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2149
To sum up: I have tried turning off the EQ (as suggested in the Apple Knowledge base article here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304490) and it does NOT make a difference. My iPod still reboots. Aside from that, disabling functionality on my iPod is not an acceptable solution. Especially when this problem doesn't exist on older iPods (I had a friend with an older one test this for me.) My iPod ought to be able to play a simple MONO MP3 file.
If anyone else wants to try this, I had the problem with the November 9th, November 23rd, and November 30th episodes of Diggnation that I downloaded through iTunes. The only thing I've found in common with all 3 of those files is that they are all MONO and not stereo. The Nov 16th version was stereo and did not cause me any reboot issues. If I convert these problem files to WAV and back to a stereo MP3, I have no reboot problems.
I have tried resetting my iPod. I have tried removing the podcast from my iPod and copying a new download of it back on to the iPod - no difference.
Any suggestions? Or does anyone at Apple know what's going on here?
Thanks.

Why not simply convert them to stereo MP3? You don't
need to first convert them to WAV.
Well, if I use the MP3 conversion in itunes, the file still reboots my iPod. So I have to use another program to convert it to a WAV and then back to MP3 - there are probably other programs out there that can do this in one step, but the one I already had requires the extra step. Besdies, I shouldn't have to do this at all. It should just work, shouldn't it?
Aside from that, disabling functionality on my
iPod is not an acceptable solution.
You are right. It's obvious that turning off the EQ
is simply a workaround until it gets fixed.
Oh, wait, it's fixed.
Update your iPod with the newest firmware (1.2.1)
Well, please note that when I started this thread, I was indeed up to date on both the latest version of iTunes and the latest version of the available firmware.
I just tried this update (1.2.1) and it seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks, apple!

Podcast Synchronization of Ipod and Hard Drive

Hi,
I'm fairly new to the whole iTunes/iPod thingy, so this question might sound stupid, but what I wanna do is the following:
I've downloaded various podcast episodes of different podcasts to my hard drive. For some podcasts, I want to begin with the first episode and catch up with everything, and so I also downloaded those.
Now, my iPod has only limited memory space left, so I want to have the first episodes on my iPods to listen to them, and then gradually replace them with the next expisodes.
However, the synchronize option doesn't work here at all (or I'm too stupid to use it). And neither do I want to manually put the episodes on my iPod because this would be rather time-consuming.
First, I unticked the more recent episodes (those I don't want to listen to right now) in iTunes on my harddrive and figured, if I then click on sychronize (all), it would transfer all selected episodes. Well, that didn't work. It still put the deselected episodes on my iPod. Then I thought I would select certain podcasts and only synchronize those, but it still put all the deselected episodes for these podcasts on my iPod.
The options like "sychronize newest episodes" and similar ones don't work either.
So, for me, it would appear to be the very simplest solution to have a sychronize option like "synchronize all selected episodes" in the menu but no, there is none like this (I'm using iTunes 7). I have to admit I've only been introduced to the whole Apple / iTunes thingy because I got an iPod as a present and I have already found way too many things that are way too complicated and not practical, so this just seems to be another one of these issues. I would love if someone could prove me wrong and teach me how to accomplish what I described above without having to manually move around episodes every other day.
And another rather confusing thing: initially, I had set iTunes to download the latest episode for a given podcast after a refresh. Then, when I realized I wanted to start with the earlier episodes and save some memory space, I set it so it would do nothing. Now, however, it really does nothing. It doesn't even display when a new episode is available. For example, I had the latest episode of an extensive podcast series and deleted it in my iTunes because it took a lot of memory space. But now I don't even see this episode any longer. I'm sorry, I'm not good at describing problems but what I want is, I want to see a list of all available episodes that will be updated regularly but I don't want the latest episodes to be downloaded automatically.. how in the world can I do that?
Sorry for the long post, I'm just getting a bit frustrated after having spent half a day on trying to figure these seemingly simple issues out
Thanks a lot for any help!

You can delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.
However, storing music on your iPod and nowhere else is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this about backing up media.
How to back up your media in iTunes.
What if the iPod were lost/stolen/needed repair? Again, the music would lost. I strongly recommend a back up, and if computer hard drive space is in short supply, you should seriously consider an external hard drive. They are not expensive, and the cost is well worth it when compared to the loss of all your precious music.

I can't delete an mp3 with it's 'media kind' changed to podcast on my Ipod touch since the Itunes 11.4 update

When I download long mp3 talk shows and place them on my Ipod touch I change their media kind to podcast to take advantage of the 2x speed and 30sec jump back. I have a smart playlist on my Ipod that shows all podcasts on the Ipod. Once I have listened to them I would normally attach my Ipod and highlight the file in the podcast smart playlist and then shift+del and the file is deleted from my Ipod.
Since the 11.4 update of Itunes there has been some alteration of this function. I can no longer shift+del the files from my Ipod. The ONLY way I can delete them is to change their 'media kind' back to mp3 and then shift+del them. This is a massive pain. Why must Itunes be messed up by every update.
A previous update rendered these mp3 media kind changed to podcast unplayable on your Ipod if you have 'skip when shuffling' checked...
I have an Ipod Touch 4th gen 32gb. I am running Itunes with windows XP.
