  • Can new iPod Classic play movies types iPod 5th Gen cannot?

    I have an iPod 5th generation and I have not really tried to put movies on it. My wife just got a new iPod classics and we've been uploading (MP4 H.264 codec) movies on her iPod Classic. When I try to upload it on my iPod 5th Gen I get an error these files cannot be uploaded since the iPod cannot play these file types. I had the same with a *.mov file.
    Can the new iPod Classic play more than the iPod 5th Gen? Or is there a way to fix this?

    Try right clicking the movie in iTunes and picking the "Convert for iPod" option. Then try syncing the converted copy ("converting" makes a new copy, old version is left alone) to your 5th gen.

  • HT1454 Can't see ipod videos from 60GB ipod classic.  I have Apple USB/video cable running through Onkyo receiver into Samsung TV. Video & TV out settings seem correct-I can see album cover, but no video. Is it possible to get itunes music videos to play

    Can't see ipod videos from 60GB ipod classic.  I have Apple USB/video cable running through Onkyo receiver into Samsung TV. Video & TV out settings seem correct-I can see album cover, but no video. Is it possible to get itunes music videos to play or do I need to get new ipod.   It works on my iPad and iPhone, but not through iPod Classic.

    Are these music videos located under Videos on your iPod?  Do it play other regular movies (if you have any on the device)?

  • Can the Ipod Classic hold uncompressed video?

    Can an ipod classic hold an uncompressed video, say a .DV file or even mpeg-2, then somehow be hooked up to a tv and watched with no loss of quality?
    I have little interest in watching movies on that little screen, but I'd like to store a couple movies to take over to a friend's house and play on the tv...
    thanks.

    schmoel, you can't work with uncompressed stuff (see THIS)
    However, there are some excellent file converters out there, specifically designed to output the iPod Classic format, and to choose whether you'll be watching on screen or TV.
    Personally, I use VisualHub

  • Can the iPod Touch play radio stations?

    Can the iPod Touch play radio stations? I have an older iPod and I use the Apple product (below) to listen to radio stations on it. I'm thinking of getting an iPod Touch and was wondering if there's any similar products that I can use for the iPod Touch, or even if there's app that would allow me to play radio stations. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA070G/D?fnode=MTY1NDA3NA&mco=MTU1NTExMA

    as already said, most (if not all) of the radio station apps require wifi access, which is fine if you just want to listen where you have wifi access (i.e. at home) but not so good if you want to listen out and about.
    i recently bought one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Roberts-Robi-DAB-iPod-adapter/dp/B000X24UOM
    which is brilliant, but i see you're in america, and i dont think you have DAB (digital) Radio over there. there may well be similar products out there though.

  • Can iPod Classic Play Movies or Videos?

    Hi... I have two iPod Classics (80GB & 160GB) and was wondering if they are capable of playing movies or videos? If not... Are any of the iPods capable of doing this?
    Thanks!

    But the 160GB model can play movies I buy from the iTunes store?
    Yes.
    If so... Is it a matter of just downloading the movie from the iTunes store and than synching (transferring) the movie onto the iPod?
    That and authorizing the computer, either by briefly playing the movie or the Store menu in iTunes.

  • Can my ipod classic 160gb play HD videos?

    I did some research on it but havent had any luck. If I remember correctly I had to purchase SD movies from itunes in order for them to playable on my ipod but I can't say for certin. any helpful input would be appreciated.

    Your iPod cannot play HD videos.  However, if you purchase an HD video in iTunes, I believe you can also download the SD version at no additional cost.

  • My ipod nano 5th gen  wont play movies or videos on my ipod but plays them on itunes when i click on it the screen flashes black i have tried taking the movie off my ipod and putting it back on but it still won't work what should i do?

    My ipod nano 5th gen. won't play movies or tv shows but it plays them on itunes.  When I click  on it the screen flashes black. I have tried taking the videos off my ipod and then putting them back on but it still won't work. what should i do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I can't get videos on my ipod classic

    hey sorry i'm quite new at this, but i'm having a little trouble with my ipod classic. i can't seem to copy video files from my computer to my itunes and then to my ipod. there's one music video that did get on my ipod but i don't know how or why it got there, and it's also without sound. would somebody please help me ?

    This was my biggest problem when I got my first iPod (30GB 5thGen)... I thought that video's would just sync straight on there no probs, was I ever more wrong...
    I got over this hurdle a few way's....
    Mac: For mac you can download mediafork or handbrake, they will both convert dvd's and sum other files straight to iPod format... (although these take a while)... On a rare occasion I have got iMovie or similar,(depending on version of MAC), all you have to do is export as a Mp4...
    Windows: Mediafork and handbrake both work gud,(but they take sum time), the one I found the best was Nero recode... It converts the video files "all" into .Mp4 ready for iPod viewing, it also puts your video's straight onto your iPod if connected...
    There are sum other free converter's that will work gud, but the best ones are the ones you pay for... (unfortunately)
