Probs putting personalized video onto iPOD.

Hi All,
I have a 30gb Video iPOD. The iPOD has a 320X20 screen..okay so far.
I have lots of home movies on my hard drive, and want to put some on my iPOD. Utilizing Final Cut Pro, I have only been sucessful with the pull-down choice of "iPOD 320X240". This format works, and plays on my iPOd no prob.
The tech specs say (pasted below):
"H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats"
and
"MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats".
How do I get the 'mpeg 4 video @ 480x480' ointo a format that iPOD will accept?
Thanks!

  • Steps to putting a video onto the ipod

    Can someone please tell me step by step on how to put a video onto an ipod and include every detail please?

    well, if you buy a video from itunes and have your ipod on automatic update, it should automatically go into your ipod once you plug it in.
    if you plan to put a dvd you have into the ipod, then here is a more detailed guide about encoding etc.

    well, the video is probably in a format that iTunes doesn't recognize.  Convert it using an application like Handbrake.

  • Dvd ripping to put home dvds onto ipod video

    ok so i was told to use "decrypter" and so i went to google and typed it in and it came up with a few results
    the first one was:
    DVD Decrypter
    so i click on that and this is what it says:
    "This software is no longer available, this page is stored for archival puposes only.
    On 24th of November, 2005, Macrovision Europe contacted AfterDawn.com, notifying us that they have acquired full rights to the DVD Decrypter software and have changed its licensing terms. Effective immediately, they have decided to withdraw all distribution rights from all third party companies, including AfterDawn.com. Thus, distributing DVD Decrypter is now as illegal as it would be to distribute cracked copies of Windows operating system or pirated copies of games."
    ok so first off what does my trying to put dvds on my ipod have to do with pirated movies and games?
    anyways
    the second result was:
    DVD Fab Decrypter
    so i click on that and this is what it says:
    "This software is no longer available, this page is stored for archival puposes only.
    On 1st of January, 2006, a new copyright legislation came into force in Finland that made it illegal to distribute tools that allow circumvention of technical copy protections. The legislation was approved by Finnish parliament and was based on European Union Copyright Directive, a law that each EU member state has to implement to their national legislations"
    So basically how the heck do i get dvds on my ipod using decrypter if it's now illegal to use it?

  • Putting Digital Camera Videos onto Ipod?

    Is this possible? And if so how do I do it? I was told I'd need to convert them, but I haven't the slightest clue how.
    I'm using a Mac with a 160 Gig iPod classic

    If it's a digital camcorder you are talking about, it will be a little more difficult to do what you want to do. But if you're just talking about a digital camera which has a video recording function in it, it should be a lot easier.
    First you have to check the file format (file name extension), i.e. is it .avi , .mpg , or anything else. Assuming you may not be able to see it right on the file name iteself (because sometimes the extensions are hidden from view). If you can't see the extension, just ctrl-click the file which you imported from your camera to your mac, click "Get Info", you can either read the extension under "Name & Extension", or just read the file format (kind) under "General" where it says what "kind" of a file it is.
    As far as I know, most DC's record .avi videos. You could either use Quick Time Pro (which costs a little of your money, or if you have Pro applications like Logic or Final Cut Studio, it is free). Even if the file is not AVI, you can still use Quick Time Pro for the conversion, as long as it's not .wmv (which you will need to buy a plug-in), or anything extremely peculiar. Open the video file with QT Pro, and go to File>Export, then choose Movie to iPod. And there's your converted video file which you can import into iTunes. (I'm not sure if a regular Quick Time Player, which is free and should already be on your mac, has the Export function as well, because I have the Pro for a long time and forget what the regular version is like).
    The good thing about QT Pro is that you can do some simple editing to your video, i.e. cut, copy and paste a specified portion of the video. And these functions are pretty useful on the most basic level.
    If you don't want to spend money on Quick Time Pro, or if the file format is something that QT Pro can't convert or even open, here's what you can do. Let say the file extension is .xyz, you can use Google, or whatever search engine you use, and search for "convert .xyz to iPod" or something like that. There are bound to be a few free software, or free trials, that you can download. Try those.
    There. That's about everything you need to know for converting videos into iPod formats.

  • Itunes Wont Load videos onto Ipod

    hi, i currently have a 60GB ipod video, and now itunes is refusing to load any videos onto my ipod, i tried so many different programs to convert video, eg videora, PQ DVD, and Replay converter etc.
    and i get the same error, it says video was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod.
    is there a way to load videos without using Itunes? or can i force itunes to load the videos?
    any help would be appreciated...
    thanx ^_^

    "All my songs are listed on the IPOD but are faded where they are in regular font in my library"
    Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists".
    Try restoring your iPod, this will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. This will give you a fresh installation and allow you to start over: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings

  • Videos onto ipod help!!!!!!!!

    does anyone know how to convert videos
    already on my computer so i can put them on my ipod???
    The easiest way:
    1) Make sure you have iTunes 6.0.2
    2) Import the video into iTunes.
    3) rightclick on the video and select 'convert selection for ipod'.
    That's it!!
    The harder way (but better quality)
    Plenty of free video conversion software out there. Use Videora iPod Converter. If you don't like that, I'm sure someone else will be able to advise you on something else (also free).

  • Putting Home Video On Ipod with Video...

    How do you put your own video onto your ipod? I keep trying but just can't figure it out! Help!

    You need to use a converter to convert the home video from its current format to the format recognized by the 5G Video. I currently use Videora iPod Converter and it works perfectly fine for me. Use Google to find the location of this. Once done, you add file to library and goto Videora's Video folder and select your home video. You can now drag it to your iPod. Remember that the iPod uses mp4 (mpeg4) as its recognized video format.

  • Videos onto ipod?

    i have converted my video to ipod format but i do not know how to get it on..i saw somebody say to put it into itunes but i do not know how to do that ive tried dragging and dropping and importing but nothing works..help please??

    Just add the video to your library as though it were an MP3.
    As for adding the video to your iPod:
    Try setting your iPod to manual mode. I'll link you to an article below on how to set your iPod in that mode. Scroll down to the 'Manual Mode' sub-topic.
    Article
    Afterwards, try dragging and dropping to your iPod icon on the left.
    Post back letting us know what is going on.
    Good luck!

  • Cant drag video onto ipod downloaded from itunes

    Hi
    Ive been downloading videos from itunes, for example "Joe Cartoon" podcast. I got the first few episodes onto my ipod fine, since then though i cant get videos onto the ipod. They download fine from itunes but when i try to drag them onto the ipod i get the black circle with the line through it. ive checked the info and they are mpeg4. Does anyone else have this problem or have any solutions?!
    thanks in advance

    Hello mizgeministarz,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I only have a few suggestions for you, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to at least try. Have you tried accessing these TV shows outside the playlist they reside in? Just access them from the main list of TV Shows if at all possible or if that isn't what you are doing currently.
    It might not hurt to also try to restore the iPod and start from scratch allowing fresh copies of the TV Shows to sync over to your iPod. There may have been a syncing issue that corrupted your TV Shows. If that isn't the case, your iPod is having trouble with the video playback.
    Hope this helps.
