Turn AppleTV video into iPod video

So now that we're all merrily ripping our DVD favorites into our AppleTVs (thanks new Handbrake!)...
...Anyone have a workflow for taking one of those nice, high-quality ripped Video files and turning it into an iPod-compatible video file?
If I want to take a movie "to go", is there a quick way to convert it? Or do I have to re-rip it again using Handbrake?
Are you folks making TWO libraries of movies? or converting for iPod as needed? or what?

Anyone have a workflow for taking one of those nice, high-quality ripped Video files and turning it into an iPod-compatible video file?Basically there are just two workflows:
1) Dual purpose files -- limiting your TV conversion to the H.264 "LC" profile and using the same file for both iPod and TV playback or
2) Using the iTunes "iPod" conversion option (or other utility) to create a secondary mobile "LC" file and use iTunes to "manage" the different files according to their use as far as syncing goes.
Are you folks making TWO libraries of movies? or converting for iPod as needed? or what?I, for one, use the first option since I have the DVDs readily available for highest quality playback if/as needed for "special" occasions and simply use the "archival" versions for "daily" use on both TV or iPod.

  • Turn iphone 4 into ipod touch

    how do you turn iphone4 into ipod??

  • Turning iPhone 3 into iPod toouch

    Have an old iphone 3 that I want to give to daughter for an ipod touch. Turn it on and it tries to activate, but is never able to. Same result with or without the sim card. Same trying from the phone or plugged into mac using iTunes. Says the activation server is temporarily unavailable.
    Since it won't activate, I can't do a think with it in iTunes, like restore or upgrade.
    Is there a simple way to fix this. Not worth it to have Apple repair it.

    I went back to ATT thinking that might solve it. They put a new sim in but still could not activate. According to the support articles, the iphone acts like the touch when the sim is removed.
    In that case, I'd try resetting the phone to factory settings (make sure you save any data first).

  • How to turn iphone 3g into ipod touch w/ out sim card

    Hi,
    I would like to give my old iphone 3g to a daycare teacher who just broke her ipod on a field trip - so sad.
    I don't have the sim card in my phone anymore and when I plug it in to itunes I cannot access anything!  I just want to set it up as an ipod touch
    (sim card was removed by an online company that I tried to sell the phone to - when they offered $30 I had them mail it back but they wouldn't return my sim card)
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Thanks

    I do have a SIM card for my iphone 4, but they are different sizes.  I didn't try to insert the sim card for fear it might hurt it.  My carrier for both phones is At&t.  Thoughts?

  • Turn iPhone 4s into iPod Touch - will not recognize sim card

    My iPhone 4s will no longer recognize a sim card. I didn't trade it in b/c the Apple salesperson said I could still use it as an iPod touch. (I want to use it at home to play Pandora/iTunes/Sirius over wifi to bluetooth speaker.) The salesperson did not warn me not to reset the phone.
    After completing the reset, it will not allow me get past the "no sim card" message. How can I bypass this in order to use the phone as an iPod?

    Yes - I took it to ATT and they put in 2 different new sim cards. It will not recognize them at all. I took it to Apple and they said it was hardware (though after reading other discussions here, I am more suspicious of iOS 7).
    They offered a trade in but I asked if I could still use it as an iPod touch. The genius dude said yes, but did not not tell me I could never reset it. Very frustrated.

  • Can I turn greenscreen video into video with transparent background (instead of default black backgr

    Can I turn greenscreen video into video with transparent background to  overlay on another video in another program.  probably export as avi.     I know I can in after effects  but comfortable with premiere.   basically want to turn the greenscreen from a black to transparent background  ppro cs6     windows
    [ email address removed by forum host ]

    Harm is correct. It would be better to edit in the program where you keyed out the green. However, if you really must ...
    DPX is one file per frame. While you may not be able to open it from Windows, it is only because Windwos has not been told to open them in Photoshop.
    The whole point of the DPX file is to have a visually lossless storage of your frames that is designed to be used between applications (just what you want to do): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Picture_Exchange
    However, if you prefer to use another option that you are more comfortable with, you can use PNG.
    Or...
    If you insist on a single video, use the Animation codec for Quicktime.
    In any case, you need a picture format or video CODEC that can store an Alpha Channel.
    Or.....
    Export the video with the black and use a Luma key in the next application.
    Or ...
    Export the video with the black, and then export a video of just the alpha channel as a blabk and white image where black is transparent when used as a track matte, and then in the next application use the video of the alpha channel as a track matte.
    Since you haven't said what the other application is or why you want to use it, we are having a little trouble offering a specific solution.

  • Turn Windows Phone into a video streaming server (not client)?

    I want to stream video from a Windows Phone 8/8.1 device but I'm not sure where to start.  I have done extensive web searching for C# examples or libraries to do this but everything I have found so far covers using the phone as a
    client, not as a source.
    I'm guessing I need to turn the phone into an RTSP server? If not, what is the correct technique or starting point for doing this?  Main concerns are that the streaming be smooth and with minimal lag, since the Windows Phone (camera) is mounted on a robot
    for remote navigation.  Too much lag or video performance problems and navigation will be impossible.  Any libraries or samples that show how to do this are greatly appreciated.

  • Cannot export videos into iPod format?????

    I have Quicktime Pro, and recently exported some 15 video or so into iPod format, then imported them into iTunes for storage on my 60 GB iPod 5G. Imagine my surprise to find the error message that some of the videos, including all but three of the ones I exported,cannot be played on my iPod. I even tried using iTunes to re-export the videos in iPod format, to no avail.
    What's the deal? I thought the "export to iPod" option in Quicktime Pro 7.1.2 and the "convert selection to iPod" function in iTunes was so that I could vide my videos on this iPod. Why is this no longer working?????

    There are some files (such as MPEG-1 and those with muxed audio) that Quicktime has trouble converting. I use iSquint for converting videos for my iPod, and it works great. It's faster than Quicktime, and it's also free!

  • Is Photoshop capable of turning RAW videos into videos? [was:RAW]

    Is Photoshop capable of turning RAW videos into videos?  There is such thing as RAW video.  Cameras that can shoot 4K such as Canon 7D, Blackmagic, and other 4K cameras are capable of shooting videos in RAW.

    How are you doing the save?  Just choosing File - Save?
    Photoshop remembers the last "master file" format you saved something in.  If the current document is capable of being saved in that format, it will default to that format for the next save.
    What happens if you do the following:
    1.  Open your raw file, and edit it.
    2.  File - Save As, and in the Save as type field choose Photoshop (*.PSD;*.PDD).
    3.  Complete the save operation.
    I'm betting that will result in your having saved a PSD format file.
    In summary, change your habit to use File - Save As to save your master document and you can't go wrong.

  • How do I turn my video settings on to play a movie on the tv?

    I have a red, yellow, white adaptor to connect my iPad to the tv to play movies. The directions say to turn the video output to "on" to be able to play the video on the television. When I go to video settings this is not an option. Does anyone know how I can get a video to play on the tv. I have an old tv too. So no wifi is available on it. This adaptor was working a few weeks ago when I last used it to watch midnight in Paris.

    Some videos that are purchased from the iTunes store require HDCP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdcp) It's standard on HDMI and Blu-Ray players. If the video can't communicate with the device it's hooked up to, it will not play.
    Since the composite cable you're using can't transmit HDCP (only HDMI cables can), you won't be able to play that video. This is a video-to-video selection, made by the studios.
