    hi
    I reacently bought the newest ipod nano and have some questions.
    I always download a movie as a WMV or AVI file .
    Yesterday i downloaded "a cindarella story" (i know, old movie but it's cool) and it was a WMV file .
    I always put the WMV or AVI file in the ipod converter and convert it to a Quick-time file, and then i can put it in my itunes. I tried with the cindarella story file, but i can't find it because it was already a quick-time file. So i tried to put the cindarella story in my itunes. But it doenst work either !
    It's also weird tho, because when i open the file wíth Quick-time or Itunes, it doenst work. When i open the file with Windows media player or VLC mediaplayer.. it WORKS !

    This is vérry weird, so i want to ask if some of you guys could help me. I would appreciate that.
    (and dont mind my english, i'm from The netherlands. )

    Thankyouuu !

    well it probably have some kind of DRM if you purchase it from online, if you didnt purchade it, it sound like a codec issue, make sure you have the lates codecs on your pc, go on the download section of afterdawn, look for klite codec pack and install it, also try the newest videora ipod converter 4.01 they have improve the files it can convert, they now even support mkv format, Good Luck.
