Whats better the ipod nano or Ipod video??

What are your views on the ipod nano and ipod video??

I'm horrified that Apple have released a video iPod and stuck a tiny 4:3 ratio screen on it. I know that 16:9 widescreen has only just appeared in the good old US of A, but as one of the countries at the forefront of Hi-Def TV (which has 16;9 widescreen images as standard) I am quite bemused - what are you going to watch; black and white re-runs of 'I love Lucy' - again. Or perhaps just even smaller letterboxed films, (special 1 inch high presentation of Star Wars Episode 3 ?) TV shows and pop promos? ( most of which are now shot 16:9 widescreen especially if they are sourced HD)
I hate to say this but buy yourself a nano for your music (Apple's music players still beat every other one out there) and get a PSP for watching films/videos !
Let the torrent of abuse begin....

    I would think, Twins1995, that if we are having the problem, others are as well. Hopefully, Apple will shortly issue a follow-up software release to fix the problem. Or is that just wishful thinking on my part.
    It would be helpful, if there were some kind of work-around in the interim, so we can use our devices. Pretty frustrating when you consider that all of the hardware and software is produced by Apple.

  • What is the best way to format Videos for ipod touch?

    What is the best way to format Videos for ipod touch? Used Quicktime Pro/ Export (iPhone setting). Videos aren't as crisp as downloaded Videos. Compressors /ipod video Setting also looks crapy (with bitrate med & High). What should I use?

    Visualhub is a transcoder with multiple input and output formats with specific setting for iPod,iPod touch. Costs around $19-used to work great but recently everything I convert suffers audio crash than closes out the player. Hopefully they will fix it.
    Elgato H.264 hardware transcoder is $99 dollars(USB stick that plugs in to Mac)-speeds up encoding of any file quicktime can handle, settings for apple tv, iphone/touch, ipod,Sony PSP. Worth the cost if you transcode a lot of video for the Touch or own an elgato HD tuner. Files work flawlessly and look great.
    Mpeg streamclip-free. Works great, has presets or can customize the output.

  • TS1398 what is the vpn for a ipod

    how do you know or what is the VPN for a ipod touch

    VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. Something which is more often used by companies and business to help protect their network and data from outside eyes and with some allow a means to securely connect to a network at another physical location remotely.  That's just a watered down description though.
    See here for more information on how to use them on your iOS device if interested.

    what is the highest ios an ipod touch 3rd gen can do up to?

    Like Ralph Landry1 said
    No one can predict the life span of a particular device, there are too many variables to consider.  Such as, how well it is treated, how it is charged, used in a case, exposure to heat and cold, and on and on.  If you treat it well, it should last for years.
    iPod Touch has a 1 year warrenty, but with the AppleCare Protection Plan, you can extend it to 2 years. Even out-of -warrenty, its still useful. And please follow through what Ralph Landry1 said.

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Cracked screens aren't cover by warranty sadly. That's why you need apple insurance to cover these devices. I've been through 4 iPhone 4's haha.

  • Using an iPod Nano and iPod Mini with one PC

    I have an iPod Mini which I bought last year and I'm thinking of buying a Nano for my wife. I only have one Laptop PC. Can I use both iPods with one Laptop and update both from the already installed iTunes ? I don't want to create a second PC user ID/account. Will I have to load the iPod Nano s/w onto my Laptop and will this affect my Mini s/w or is it totally separate ? Are there any problems with using to different iPods on a single PC ?
    Regards
    Simon

    Hi Simon,
    There is only one iPod updater (http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/):
    iPod Updater 2006-01-10 includes iPod Software 1.1 for the new iPod, new iPod Software 1.1 for iPod nano, new iPod Software 1.2.1 for iPod with color display, new iPod Software 1.4.1 for iPod mini, and new iPod Software 3.1.1 for iPod with Click Wheel. iPod Updater 2006-01-10 contains the same software versions as iPod Updater 2005-11-17 for all other iPod models.
    It recognises which iPod is plugged in when you attach it for update.
    Regards,

  • What's the best WMV to MOV Video Converter?

    Hi,
    What's the best .WMV to .MOV Video Converter?
    I'm trying to edit imported .WMV files in iMovie HD but iMovie HD doesn't seem to recognize .WMV files.
    Any help would be greately appreciated,
    Thank you.

    Those other posters are steering you in the right direction. Flip4Mac is the best thing for this, and all the paid functions will work in the free downloaded version, there's just some limitations on the length of any one clip, and a watermark on the video, but it will let you see how well it works...well worth the affordable $.

    I have not been able to find the technical limits/specs for the site Blogger or blogspot.com. That is why I made the post here thinking some Adobe users may have experimented already and come up with good export settings for AVI DV video to a format optimized for Blogger.
