n00b with an iPod needs help pl0x

Hey everyone. I recently got an iPod and immediatly downloaded my favorite songs and stuff (the iPod is a 30 gig iPod video 5th gen :thumbsup: )

 

 

 

well after long hours of trial and error (i'm an idiot when it comes to technology) i finally learned how to work most of the iPod. Since mine is an iPod video, i also wanted to see if i could put movies. When i found the cost of 5-6 videos, i suddenly felt very poor... so i tried putting movie DVDs i owned onto my ipod. since nothing happened, i looked it up and found nothing helpful...

 

 

 

 

 

so instead i wanted to ask the good folks at tipit: is there any way to download your DVDs onto an iPod video? and, if its free and doesnt need any special equipment, how do you do it?

[hide=]

tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:

That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.

I could get youtube videos on my ipod for free too. I wouldn't have to buy $50 software to do it either.

 

 

 

There is always a free alternative to save you money.

Now, as for the link that i123i posted, has anyone tried it? the software is free to download, compared to the 50 dollar software with cruddy quality...how do i knw i'm not getting cruddy software and will it be full quality tat i expect it? has anyone tried those programs themselves?

Divx is awesome for dling movies. But anyways most DVD's nowadays have anti ripping software programmed onto the disk.

cool a computer user that admits to not knowing everything :)

 

 

 

anyway, im not sure about putting movies onto an ipod (as i only have an ipod shuffle...) but im sure the video file has to go thru itunes. so if you can convert your videos to maybe a mpg or avi file type it may help

Never argue with an idiot - it only drags you down to there level, where he then beats you with experience.

That is exactly what he (And myself) are trying to do, i hear there is free trial of madZ ipod video converter, ive used it myself and find it to be the best converter out there, but only gives you 4 free converts :(

Exactly. If you're going to do something illegal there's no point in buying something which enables you to make the software designer rich and yet still do illegal things with it.

 

 

 

Though I'm not saying that's a good idea to go out and do illegal stuff. :wink:

Videora iPod converter is a good prog to convert movies into a format that an iPod could use. After this, import to iTunes, etc.
