if you have problems with psp9, try quicktime pro, or some of the others listed

the ipod is compatable with

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
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

Enjoy :)

I've tried to use those requirements, it won't seem to work with anything but quicktime. Do you think its possible apple quicktime does some special encoding or some process so only quicktime can do it? It's been kind of confusing telling if people just converted the video or actually did and put many diff. types of video on it. I mean different types as different file formats converted to ipod compatible ones.

I found two great tools for converting video to ipod

* (Windows) Convert DVD, AVI, DivX, XviD to Ipod Video: http://www.dvd-tool.com/dvd-rip-software/dvd-ipod-mp4.html

* (Mac) Convert DVD to Ipod Video: http://www.dvd-tool.com/dvd-rip-software/mac-dvd-rip.html. (Freeware)

Maybe help.

Yeah somebody mentioned that before. I've tried numerous programs and the only thing that I found that works is the PQ DVD to iPod Video Converter. It costs 35 bucks at their site, http://www.pqdvd.com/dvd-to-ipod-video-converter.html, and the trial can convert a 5-minute segment. It's also pretty fast, anyone having trouble should check it out.

Thanks for the guide, I've converted almost all of my music videos/captured videos successfully using the PSP9 converter. I'm having trouble however, converting DVDs using PQDVD's DVD to iPod converter. I can convert the video from the DVD, but only without audio. I can play the DVDs with no problem using PowerDVD. Am I missing a codec or something? Any suggestions? Thanks!

I am unsure of this, some people seem to be getting audio lag. re-check the guide though, my friend, as there are many other methods you can try! :)

I use this...

http://www.omniquiti.com/store.php

It costs $5, but it works wonders for me. It takes .avi files and you can select a psp or ipod preset and it converts it for you. The new version is in beta and you can convert from a .vob file! A regular 22 minute t.v. episode takes about 15 min. to convert.

Isn't MP4 just a container for audio and video, which can be compressed using various codecs?

If so, what does "plays MP4 video" mean? In my mind, MP4 files can use DivX, XviD, Nero, etc.

Someone please educate me.

Wjason777 - if you are getting the same problem using two diffetrent methods, it is definetely your itunes/or computer. Videora is specifically made for the ipod, and many people have had lots of success with it. I reccommmend uninstalling itunes and quicktime, & then re-installing.

All - also, try using some of the other links in the guide. They all work. Just find which best works for you ;)

I've had the same problem with PSP video 9. That is, iTunes reports that those files created with the program are incompatible. I was noticing the specs for the movies that the ipod can handle are 768kbits/sec.

I used all of the settings in the guide and converted a 22 minute movie. Upon completion I viewed the "Movie Info in Quicktime and it reports that the movie was converted with 880.5kbits/sec. Could it be that the kbits/sec are too high for the ipod? I know there were some spec mismatches on this forum, so I thought I'd throw that out there.

Anyone else able to play the videos with higher than 768kbits/sec?

I'm not at home so I can't try reconverting the movie at a lower rate, someone want to try it and let us know?

Hi There. As I hate Windoze and use Mac and Linux, Do you know of a program for Linux that will convert Video (any/Most formats) to the video ipod?

Had a google and couldn't find any at the moment.

TIA

well so far only the Videora ipod Converter has worked for me but even this has caused a problem. so far the sound is out of sync but im working on a few different settings to see if i can find a solution so il keep you posted.

why couldnt apple just make it easy eh? i tried encoding with QT Pro 7 and it took so long i gave up in the end!! great to release a product with cool features but no support, way to go Apple.

Haha, second that! Even though I added the quicktime pro into my guide, it is another of many gaffes from apple! It is really slooow!

Keep working at the videora, it is probably the pick of the bunch. Eventually, you will find the perfect settings to be able to optimise your video playback ;)

ok well i seem to have got 2 out of 3 vids in sync now so it seems to be imrpoving!! also came accross something a bit odd too. the ipod wont accept files with long names for some reason. i spent a few mins trying to add a file to the library and only when i shortened the name would it add!! so keep the file names short and sweet people :)

This is actually the pay version of Pocket DivX Encoder...good call, however PDE is freeware though.
