They sell a product called Intervideo CD Copy 4 Platinum, which will rip video from your home DVD's and convert them to a format suitable for the iPod video

It takes a good while for QT pro to "export" the unsupported video to iPod size, yet it's worth the wait.

So if you need a gadget and $400 is affordable, I highly recommend IPod Video 60GB

If you own the iphoto keep it because you have to go through a lot of garbage just to get video on the ipod to work and the ipod itself

The 5th Generation iPod 60 GB from Apple is the perfect video and music player for anyone with enough movies or music to fill it up.

Still, for a version 1 release, PQ DVD really adds a lot of functionality to an already great portable entertainment device.

The iPods soar to the top of the list of MP3 players like kites,But why not get a better player with more gigabytes?Sandisk and Creative have some pretty decent devices,Yet people cling to iPods even with their retarded prices

I am for this, for the fifth-generation iPod with video is, without a doubt, the finest electronic device I have ever owned

There are also iPod A/V cables available that allow composite video and audio output, for connecting your iPod to your television

The somewhat odd, thin protective sleeve which was included with this model may help reduce scratches when the iPod is not in use, but it is by no means a carrying case and will not protect the device at all from any accidental bumps or drops (God forbid).

Overall, this is another excellent product from Apple Computer

IPOD!!Could use sub files to make things easier and Apple is just too concerned with making as much money as they can to be a user friendly company, but they make a great product anyway

It was a great purchase and he made it super easy as well as gave me a great product

Although this is a nice little machine it's got its problems, problems that shouldn't occur in such an expensive product.

Everything has gone alright; The shipping was incredibly fast, it took only 4 days and the product is great

In other words, the feature is useless.

Its a great feature, and you can take it to school and show all your friends your videos, not just music anymore

I can safely say that this is the most remarkable feature I have ever seen on an MP3 player

On paper the feature probably sounded like a good idea but in reality it's just annoying and as far as I can tell, it's not an option that can be turned off

The video looks great, the audio sounds better than ever, and the click wheel is a nice feature, although I miss the touch sensitve buttons

But despite these gripes, its still the best music player out there, and now it plays video.

I bought this for the space it offered (60GIG) because it is the cheapest 60 gig music & video player out on the market

A good mp3 player with just enough accessories to keep life interesting

So if your planing on buying an mp3 player Creative is the best way to go.

If you have the money and want a good mp3 player with a great storage size, I recommend this!

and I can not get the sound as good few other MP3 players.

on the ipod is very good too, with many different EQ settings enhancing the sound

The positives, the sound is great, and the scroll wheel and navigation blows the likes of Creative away

I played with several of them with mixed results:Cucusoft was highly rated on the internet, but after playing with it extensively, I found that the programs would occasionally lock up, or I would lose the sound randomly while watching a show.

The only issue is with the earbuds - terrible sound and fitting issues.

A good mp3 player with just enough accessories to keep life interesting

From one MP3 player skeptic to another.

So if your planing on buying an mp3 player Creative is the best way to go.

I bought a Zen Micto on May, and I was looking forward to have a better MP3 Player

If you have the money and want a good mp3 player with a great storage size, I recommend this!

I was very surprised that, despite the fact this product was very used, that the product was in EXCELLENT condition.

The condition of this however is poor at best

Apple is including a small sleeve-type case, with this iPod, to help you keep it in good condition

So I'm very happy to say nothing was wrong with . perfect condition and no problem and great price

Overall I am pretty disappointed with the terrible condition this came in, but it's an iPod and it does work, just be aware that you are not buying something thats too good looking.

Basically you just need to make sure that the audio quality is good enough and the video resolution is good enough for the iPod.

The video feature is pretty cool and I've converted some DVDs to it and the quality is unbelievable.

The only disadvantages would be the low-quality headphones it comes with and the lack of accessories which really bring it to life.

(I really like seeing the album art while playing a song).- Very lightweight.- Good quality sound

The iPod also has good sound quality and a variety of different utilities like the world clock make it fun to use

On a Mac, it's a snap to load videos to watch on the go, and has the usual superb iTunes management system for music, not to mention the iTunes Music store for downloads, music videos and limited at this point TV episodes

But despite these gripes, its still the best music player out there, and now it plays video.

iTunes; if u lose your music in iTunes, u need a third party application to take everything off of your ipod

It plays AAC files (Apple's proprietary music files), the old generic mp3 files, and a few other files

Overall, it is a solid, basic music player in a very pretty

I recommend getting A good case (I got a black eVo3 case) because if you dont I guarantee you that your screen will scratch

I recommend getting a protective case for it just to keep it looking like new

After a week out of the box, even with the use of an iPod sock my iPod had a load of superficial scratches on the display, case and back

Although the black iPod is desirable, the case is VERY easily scratched

Consider getting a semi-hard carrying case to protect your investment.- Car accessories

and i guess i also have to say good bye to the 25 weekly free songs i get through facebook

It then preceded to do the "handy" auto-update of my ipod, thereby erasing over 2000 songs from my ipod to match the "empty" library

When the new video iPod was released, I knew it would be a short amount of time before I upgraded my 3G.The Video iPod works just as well as the 3G, very easy to use

First off burn all your songs on to a DVD and be done with it.

The only problem is, any songs that are remotely the same show up, and if you delete them (which i thought to be a good idea), i lost both the original copy and the duplicate song

I am not a paid Apple employee like some of the reviewers on here.

Arguable the best product Apple has ever made, the iPod Video (5G) does exactly what it's supposed to, in the best looking package, with the best user interface.

It's also a surprise for Apple to be so irritatingly poor.

I have a number of toys in my older age, and the Apple I-Pod is clearly a favorite

Also, Apple was a hassle to deal with when I had a problem with the original ipod I received whereas Amazon was delightful and sent me a replacement before I even received the mailing label to return the original flawed ipod.

Overall: I would highly recommend an Ipod Video to anybody who wants to store music and listen to it on the go without all those bulky CD

Importing, buying online music/videos, burning your own CDs, putting stuff into your iPod ... it's all in one place

Unlike every portable CD player I've ever owned, on the iPod, there is no background noise floor (which is caused by the mechanical action of the spinning compact disc).

And burning a CD of your favorite tunes is so effortless, that nifty feature practically makes up for the cost of the unit

You can also add the cover artwork from your favorite CD's, which shows up at the left of the screen, next to the song titles

There are also iPod A/V cables available that allow composite video and audio output, for connecting your iPod to your television

They cost $1.99 per episode, for titles including ABC's hits Lost and Desperate Housewives

I downloaded an episode of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and watched it on the iPod.

(I don't care for Lost and especially Desperate Housewives...unless the 4 women did the show nude!)

This feature is very enjoyable, and you will greatly enjoy it on when you have 45 minutes to kill and want to watch Desperate Housewives or Law and Order

I had already cleared 60 GB of empty space on my second hard drive.

There are also iPod A/V cables available that allow composite video and audio output, for connecting your iPod to your television

the only option left is to copy it to your hard drive. which i finally decided to do, but with a 60 gb ipod, there is s much space it can take

It also works well as an external hard-drive and is able to stall more files than more regular external h'drives at a close price range.

These problems, however, are all inherent in hard drive mp3 players

He told me that was not supported unless they were downloaded from Itunes, and would not work due to a variety of issues, including copy protection and technical problems with converting the files to the right formats.

The only problem is, any songs that are remotely the same show up, and if you delete them (which i thought to be a good idea), i lost both the original copy and the duplicate song

it’s a copy!It works okay with headphones, but when I plugged it into my car it wouldn’t work

But remember: ALWAYS make sure to keep a "hard copy" of the video on your computer.
