    Hi Folks!
    Anyone had this problem before? i put a couple of Lost episodes on my ipod, They will play fine but if i try to seek (ff or rev)the file will start all over again!
    Any ideas on how to correct this?
    (files are mp4 if i open them on anapod explorer the properties show: "duration 0:00")

    Try updating your iPod to the latest firmware version using iTunes.

    The content of the ipod will be gone, right?

    Not if you update, only if you restore.

    I got it!
    The problem is the metadata of the file, making some research i found that ipods use a different kind of "tag" wich is handled by Itunes and since i'm not using it there is where my problem starts the fix is to edit the tag with an app:
