i just got me a 30gb movie playing one, and ive got all the songs i want onto it, but none of the movies i want. how can i get them onto the Pod? do i need them in a specific format or what?

 

 

 

any help will be appreciated.

i think they have to be in itunes MP4 format to work - u can download googlevideo in that format - but u will need a converter for others

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and to get it to english - edit - which is the second menu along and then preferences - the bottom option and select english.

ok i fixed the language and editing, but im still stuck on the movie getting on front. any more help?

Do you have the movies on dvd? Or are they already on your computer?

they are all saved in a certain downloading program i have which shall not be named for tip.it's reasons. from this citrus fruit length of metal program i have downloaded a load of episodes of stuff like family guy

 

 

 

(its not stealing, i have em on dvd too) and want em on my ipod now.

Converts movie files to .mp4.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then, add them to iTunes the same way you would with songs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would suggest naming them in this format:

 

 

 

ShowName.S01.E01.Episode.Name



e.g.



Friends.S01.E01.Pilot

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This makes it easier to select shows on the ipod and find the episode you are looking for, and for them to play in a logical order.

meh i like total video converter myself but

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

just google for a mp4 video converter and run ur files thru there

ok ive downloaded 'videora', and i 'transcoded' the viedo i wanted in mp4 format, but after it had finished, the file disappeared...

 

 

 

where does it go?

most likely it went to the videora directory

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

c:/program files/videora/converted

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

or something like that

hmm, any other ideas? im off to bed and ill try that thing tommorow morning..

Open Videora Converter.

 

 

 

Go to Setup.

 

 

 

The tab should be on Settings, but if it isn't got to Settings.

 

 

 

There will be a file path next the 'Output Videos To:', this is where your converted videos are.

You could just search your computer for mp4 files and see if you find the one you converted.
