Video Converter Programs

HandBrake 0.9.2 (handbrake.fr) - DVD to AVI/MPEG-4 converter - incorporates many major and exciting changes-including full support for the AppleTV Take 2 and the latest iPhone/iPod Touch firmware. Mac users take note: this release is only compatible with Mac OS X Leopard, 10.5. (freeware)

FairMount (metakine.com/products/fairmount) - is a tool that allows decryption of DVD content on the fly for a convenient access. FairMount does not perform the actual decryption, it simply forwards the data to VLC Media Player which is used for decryption - thus, VLC Media Player must be installed for FairMount to work (freeware)

I had such a difficult time being able to figure this out when I first had the issue!! If you download videos from the iTunes Music Store, it is already formatted to mp4 and will upload onto your iPod once you sync. However, if you download from Limewire, BearShare, etc. the videos usually aren't formatted to mp4. All you need to do is download a converter [go to Google & type in mp4 converter] & it will convert it for you. You download the movie on to your computer and then download it onto your ipod == == You need a DVD player in your computer (because DVDs are encoded), and you need a DVD-ripping program. These can be found by using Google "+DVD +rip +program". Most programs will be free, but make sure you download the right one for your operating system.

iPod accepts mp4 video detail as follow

MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats.

You can learn more from: http://www.apple.com

You need a converter to help you convert the DVD to MP4 format.And then transfer the video that be converted to iTunes.

If you have an iTunes account all you need to do is buy movies from the iTunes store and it will go to your iTunes library. Get your iPod USB cable and plug one side on your iPod, the other to the computer. Then on your left hand side there will be tabs saying Music, Movies, TV Shows and more. Go down and it will say Devices and it will show your iPod. Click on your iPod and at the top there will be a few tabs. Click on the one saying Movies. Then at the top there will be a box and next to it it says Snyc Movies. Click that box and there will be a tick on it. Then at the bottom click apply then wait. When it has finished click on Sync. When it is finished it will be on your iPod.

If the movie on your computer is not purchased from iTunes, you can use a transfer program to transfer the movie from computer to iPod. There are many transfer program you can choose.

put your DVD intoyour computer, go to my computer and then RIGHT click on DVD icon and go to explore. these are all the files making up the DVD. Because iPod take a different type of video file than those used on DVD's you would need to have it changed. To do this follow this link and download the software:

http://www.nchsoftware.com/prism/index.HTML

When that's done upload you DVD and convert to the iPod format. open itunes, go to file and select import file, (or folder if you saved it into a foler). upload it, should take a few minutes. Drap it onto your iPod, this will take a lot longer so expect a wait, about 15 -20 mins. Once done it should play, if not check the file conversion and make sure that its the right type of file otherwise it won't play.

make sure that your iPod has enough memory before hand. To do go to my computer, right click on the DVD icon and look at the properties. Then check the same for your iPod, plug it into itunes then click on your iPod on the left.
