    Hi, guys, first of all a big thx from me too for the good (and very easy to follow) guide. well, everything works fine but when i convert the movie and put it on my ipod the movie looks as if the ipod stretches the movie. i think this is because the movie is 16:9 and the ipod cuts the black stripes above and at the bottom so the movie looks a bit weird. can someone help? i turned on 16:9 and set the profile at psp9 to 16:9 either but it still doesnt help.

    thank you all in advance
    yours lax

    Thanks for the heads up guys.

    if you are having problems still, you could always try the quicktime pro which is the one apple recommends (it's in my guide) and if you send me a pm ill help you set it up :)

    HI GUYS; writing from Belgium where IPOD video is not yet released. Bought one in the US last week but does not work. Tried a reset with Pause/menu and by toggling the Hold buttom but nothing to do. I plugged it on my PC and to the standard electricity.. nothing. Anyone had the same problem. No sign of life from my brand new ipod video

    Xtcssbf, for the reset you need to turn hold on then off, and at the same time hit the menu button and the select button, not the pause button. They have to be hit pretty much simultaneously. Hope that helps.

    Junior, thanks for the info. i have tried. It is dead. nothing happened. Also called the 1-800 number and they told me that the best would be to get service repaired. When I ask them, does it happen often, they claimed that I was the 1st one ... the unlucky guy in this world. !!!

    Hey guyz. If anyone is having trouble with getting Movies into their iPod, then just go here....

    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/

    Awesome program. I've had no trouble since. Just convert with that then use Itunes to throw it on the POD.

    Anyway, prob like a lot of people, I've dumped a nice Video library for myself to watch on my new iPod for when i was at the Gym. (i cant see a TV from the tredmills :p ) But my question is....Is there any way to Navigate through Videos quicker then just holding the right arrow down??? I have Videos that are about 40 mins each and to just fast forward to just the middle requires holding down the arrow for like 5 mins.

    Thx for the help
