So does anyone know of a way to lad videos on to ipods? My 80gb video ipod doesnt seem able to play any of the a-m-v.org amvs. Anyone know a solution? Other than getting a zune?

iTunes can convert video to a correct format.

I tried Itunes, itll only convert the video. So pics with out the music. Does the video converter convert both?

I use one called "Cucusoft iPod Movie & Video Converter" it cost me like $20 but it will convert just about anything I put into it... though varying frame rates can often kill a conversion O.o

pretty much it puts it into a format that ipod can handle

Videora was good (and free) for converting when I had my ipod - http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/

Another one would be Super

I find videora the best for getting the video to convert [It handles different file types better], however, if Super works, I find it has the best quality to file-size ratio [which is important to me when I convert entire anime series', audio 96kbps, video 336kbps, will fit 52 eps onto 1DVD with decent quality as long as the episodes aren't over 25min]... Unless you just ramp the bitrate right up... in which case it doesn't matter... but you'll have larger files.

And any of these will also conver the music with it?

It was (it was a gift and I lost it at school due to my own stupidity, and I could never afford a replacement)

PS - watching AMVs on an iPod is awesome. I'd suggest keeping the bitrate up a bit with AMVs, unless you're trying to store a real mass of them on it. I had maybe 40AMVs on it, and despite decent settings they didn't take up a lot of room at all.

x2

I highly suggest this. It does both AVI and MP4 (if you know what you're doing).
