[Lauren9]

how is that related to skiing, inless you want to put a ski movie on your ipod?

 

[Gorilla.Steeze]

so say i have shanghi 6. all i have to do is put it on the comp and then put it in my ipod and then i can watch it whenever i want?

 

[drewishish]

i think you can put any kind of video or movie..... i think a full movie like 130 or 2 is like 2.4 or 4 gigs

i cant really remember but this is what i think.

 

[timmi]

be carefull though. some movies have things that make it so you cant put it on your computer.

1)Make sure you have updated your QuickTime software to version 7.0.3 or later. If you don't have QuickTime 7.0.3 installed, get it now.

2)Open QuickTime 7 Pro.

3)Choose "Open File..." from the File menu.

Select the movie you'd like to play on your iPod, then click the Open button.

4)Choose "Export..." from the File menu.

5) Choose "Movie to iPod (320x240)" from the export drop down list and click the Save button.

The Export progress bar shows you how much of the export process is completed. The longer your movie and the larger its frame size, the longer the export will take.

Once the export is complete, QuickTime Pro will place on your Desktop a new version of your movie that will play on the iPod. Double-click the new file and play it to make sure it looks as you expect.

6)To get the movie onto your iPod, open the file with iTunes.

7)Transfer it to your iPod.

there you go, all set. oh yeah, and theres only certain types of videos that quicktime will open- even with Quicktime Pro...

there are programs that will put it in the right format for you. There was something posted a wile ago on it... program is called handbrake google it

works with dvd's

 

[Stan_Darsh]

i think you are supposed to use quicktime pro

its costs money, but jsut download it on limewire or something

 

[*rkp*]

videora is the best convertion program

 

[SnowCoast]

^If you have a PC...

 

[CBROOKS]

what about conversion to mp4 for a mac?

 

[~Cork_1080~]

no you have to convert it with quicktime. theres a new dl out for the new ipod.

 

[JackieTreehorn]

this is true, but it only works if the videos you plan on using are "related to skiing"

 

[Itsbackfliptime]

if you have iMovie it should do it.
