Video Is it possible to download a video from a DVD directly to the IPOD, or are all videos only accessible via purchase from Apple?

Itunes will not allow you to rip video from a dvd. However, there are lots of programs out there that will do the job. A good website with lots of programs (some free and some you must purchase) is download.com.

One program that I recommend is CloneDVDMobile by SlySoft. You do have to pay for it, but I've had it for over a year, and I've never had a problem ripping a DVD to the iPod. It's really easy to use, too.

I use Apollo IPOD video converter which is excellent. It support all formats including rmvb. Easy to use and conversion is fast. This is to convert video to play on IPOD 80GB video. MOVAVI v4.5 is excellent too for this job.For DVD to IPOD, you can use Apollo DVD to IPOD.It is excellent.

Since the ipods don't have input connections, the only idea that I can come up with is to import them into iTunes and then sync up the ipod to get them onto it. To import them into iTunes may require that the home movies be put on a CD in an old format (If you are lucky it might be able to read DVDs and the newer formats, but iTunes seems so persnickety)

I tried the USB with videos I downloaded from Youtube,I feel it would work fine with Itunes ones,and if not,they can always be converted to a different format.

Thats two questions, yes if you use this device (which I recommend for mac, I have problems using it on my pc) you can transfer video to a dvd from your computer. the licensing problem I would answer as to say you are not technically suppose to make copies or transfer movies at all that are copyrighted. That decision is up to you.

How do I even get the video onto a dvd? When I play it in Quicktime, it plays sound but no movie. When I use Windows Media Player, I get video but no sound. What am I doing wrong?

that depends. you can see or download any video in itunes if you want, and they all have good quality, but apparently you have to pay for that. but if you just want to see online, you just need plug-in component or some free soft ware to watch videos. hope these can help you. ^_^

http://www.makayama.com/dvdtoipod.html Try using this software, and convert the movie in to the format which is compatable with the iTunes. By the way, I have not used it, just since I came across this I am giving you the extention Good luck

Just remember that you can't use the SD card to play videos bought on-line. Neither Amazon's nor Itunes will work. They must be loaded in the internal memory.

Hey, I had the same problem getting DVDs onto my Vision. What you need are two programs that work with one another. AnyDVD and CloneDVDMobile. Do a Google search for them. AnyDVD actively disables the Copyright-protection on "any DVD" and CloneDVDMobile lets you choose what model MP3 player you have, what size you want to make the video, and what chapters off the DVD you want to convert. They give you a trial period that lasts about 20 days, so you'll have plenty of time. Check it out!And about getting videos period. I've aquired all my videos from media sites like extremefunnyhumor.com, ebaumsworld.com, and killsometime.com. Those sites typically have a link to be able to save the video onto your hard drive.

Thanks!! You answered the specific question I had in mind: downloads from limewire. Its one of the main reasons I was hestitating on the ipod. I wasn't sure how restrictive it was (like, can you only upload things onto it from itunes, etc.) But now I know. THANKS!!!

The unit has an AV input jack, so the short answer is yes. The longer answer is that the video out on IPod Classic will only work with cables and docs that have a special chip in them. Previous IPods didn't have this requirement. Currently, the only availble cables I know of come from Apple and cost about $50. They have both component video and composite RCA cables(which is what you'll need for this player). Since this unit unit only has a single AV input jack, you'll need an adapter to plug the red, yellow, & white connectors into the included cable. Simple video connector cables should do (RCA female on both ends). You could also purchase a dock that's compatible with the IPod classic and use the included AV cable. With the IPod classic, there's no real reason to get this specific unit. The dock on this unit is not compatible with the Ipod Classic and the AV input solution I outlined above would work with any portable DVD player.

I haven't tried doing that. I just download my itunes music/ movies onto it.

My husband has transferred DVDs to our iPhone and iPad. I don't know exactly how he did it, but it can be done. Maybe through a cloud? That would be my guess. Alright, he said he used some type of software.

You can also use MediaMonkey to sync your Ipod. The current version 2.x will only do audio but there is a beta version in the works which may also support video.The basic software is free and you can upgrade to MediaMonkey Gold for $19.95 (it adds some faster ripping/burning speeds and some other upgrades in functionality, nice but not necessary).If you want to see how to make MediaMonkey work with with your Ipod check out their information at http://mediamonkey.com/product_ipod.htm.Disclaimer: I am not financially involved with MediaMonkey just a satisfied user of the basic software (I didn't feel the need to upgrade to gold) You can also use MediaMonkey to sync your Ipod.

I do not use iTunes, or Apple products, but this portable hard drive could easily be used to install anythinf from a dvd to your selected device. It might be batter if you would installyour music to your computer, then connect your device and download the music to your device. Then you can load your selection again at anytime easily.

As of last summer, I bought my second one (used) thru Amazon for a very low price. It's still works with I Tunes and I have found a goldmine of music videos on U Tube that with a free software converter, called flvto.com, downloads multi videos to I Tunes. Make sure, if you buy one, that you down load Apples updates for it, or it will loose some of your music on it!!
