Videos cant be added into my ipod

i hope this is the right section for me.
my ipod is the discontinued ipod video 30gb if im not wrong. i was able to add videos that were converted to mp4 format from flv format in the past, but recently, i keep getting the error msg saying that the videos's format isnt support by my ipod but the format are still mp4.
my brother also owns a ipod classic 80gb. we tried to add the same video into both our ipods, he was able to add the video to his but i wasnt able to.
anyone can give any advice about this to me? i tried formatting and restoring the settings on my ipod already.

I'm having the same problem. Why hasn't anyone helped you? I'm desperately looking for the answer ... have you found it?

    Your source video file is probably muxed.
    Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
    See: iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files.
    You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
    Try MPEG Streamclip.

  • My itunes video won't load into my ipod

    I just received my ipod and have been using it for a week now and I have been purchasing music videos and stand up comedians through itunes.
    One video (about 22 min. long) was purchased and downloaded fine into my ipod. The video played fine, no problems. That is until I realized that a few days later, I could no longer see the video in my ipod. It is still in my itunes but no matter what I do, I cannot get it to load back into my ipod.
    Any suggestions? I am at a total loss.

    Thank you for the tip Jeff but I still cannot get the video to load onto my ipod.
    It is in my itunes and plays there fine, but no matter what I do, I am still unsuccessful. And Apple's customer service is NO help at all.

  • Trouble sync a HD movie into my iPod classic

    I purchased a HD movie And i cant sync it into my iPod classic is theme a way a can do that

    High Definition (HD) content is not compatible with your iPod Classic.  You'll need to sync the SD version of the video to your iPod instead.  See this article for more details.

  • I recently bought a new computer, and downloaded new music.. I want to sync my new music into my  ipod but it wont le me.. if i sync it will erase all my music and if i press okay it says it cant because my ipod is connected to another itunes..

    i recently bought a new computer and installed itunes and downloaded music already... I want to sync my new music into my ipod but it wont let me it says my ipod is linked to another itunes library, so If i want to go ahead with the process it says it will erase all my movies, photos, apps ect.. I press okay then it says about another itunes library If i want to sync my ipod i have to "erase and sync" if i go ahead with this will it erase all my photos?? All im worried about are my pictures.... if i do this will it erase my pictures... so far i havent been able to put the recently added music to my ipod... i tried it my husbands iphone and synced it since he has no music or videos... and it had the autofill option so i did this... and it worked.. why will it not work on my ipod..

    You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
    - Make this your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:

  • Cannot transfer videos into my ipod touch after upgrading to iOS5 and iTunes 10.5! HELP!

    before i upgraded into iOS5 and iTunes 10.5 i was still able to transfer videos with mp4 format.
    after i upgrade, i cant transfer anymore.
    I CANT TRANSFER THE SAME VIDEOS I HAVE.
    I CANT VIEW VIDEOS THAT I DOWNLOADED FROM THE APPLE TRAILERS.
    what went wrong?
    any solution?
    is apple even aware of this?
    i need to sync my videos
    i dont like syncing them on a third party app.
    please help and advice.
    thanks!

    I am encountering the same problem. And its really frustrating to see that the same videos that played earlier cant be played now. WHY?
    There are some itunes forums that give the solution as :
    Add the video to iTunes. Convert it into correct format using iTunes. But when i try to add, it doesn't even show the video on the list. No error message is also shown to indicate why the video is not added even to iTunes. Earlier it added but gave error when doing sync. Now i cant even Add.
    Does anyone know if how to make APPLE aware of this?

  • When I import video and place it into timeline as a raw file with no fx or any added processing I get the message that the video is unrendered and therefore it doesn´t playback?

    FCE can use DV or AIC video formats natively.  Any other format will need to be converted to one of those two if you want to avoid constant rendering.  The clips you use must match the Sequence settings.

  • How do I convert purchased music videos and television shows into my Itunes liabrary and sync it onto my ipod?

    I recently purchased a music video and a television show episode off of Itunes. It was in my liabrary until I plugged in my Ipod nano 4th generation for it to sync. As my ipod is syncing the music video and tv show episode were'nt in my liabrary and they didn't sync onto my ipod. Yet when I log into my itunes store account the purchsed content is there. How do I get the music video and tv episode into my itunes library and onto my ipod?

    My guess (and it is just a guess) is that what you are trying to do is no different than recording a TV programme to a VCR then watching it at a time of your convenience, probably the main reason why people have purchased VCRs, PVRs and the like.
    However, with commercially produced DVDs, there is an encryption built in to prevent copying, and it the discussion of how to overcome this encryption that Apple will not permit on their forums.
