After upgrading to iTunes 7 I noticed that I had a "video" section on my iPod. I don't have a video iPod, but I was looking around and my Ask A Ninja stuff was in the video section and it played. So, my question is: What else will this play? I tried encoding a movie clip to H.264 and the iPod wouldn't play it (iTunes did, of course). So maybe this is a stupid question, but if a video podcast will play, there must be a way to get other videos to play. ... right?

He says he doesn't have the video iPod. But this is really weird that it plays video without any problems or anything....I've never heard of this without Linux installed.

iPodWizard?????? That is a program that allows you to change the themes/fonts of your iPod, I'm 99.9% sure you can't get videos on the iPod with iPodWizard lol.

this is a shot of my ipod playing The Office. Do you want a shot of the menus? Huh. So I'm the only one with this happening. I guess I'll have to keep messing around with it.

Heres how to post your photos here. Go to a image-hosting site such as photobucket.com and setup an account. Upload your photo(s) and then put the url you have then into the [img]-[/img] your photo should appear then.

See, now comes one of those moments where any justifications I have just make me look worse. The funny thing is that when I was ordering it, the video ipod had just come out and I remember thinking "I'm not paying an extra hundred just to watch movies on a tiny screen". I suppose the extra hundred was just for a larger hard drive. Well on the bright side, this is like christmas in September.
