ipod-videoWhen I first bought my iPod, I found it quite hard to load videos and even some audio on it. Lots of video formats and some audio formats is not supported by iTunes (the software used to load music, videos and pictures into iPod). Apple has to look into this system and find a new way to sync music and videos from PC to iPod. Well, I had some problems but with a little bit of search on google, I found some softwares that would convert videos, MP3’s to the proper iPod format. You can easily convert iPod Classic video with just some clicks. It is that easy. After you have converted the files to iPod suitable format, just add it to your iTunes library and the next time you plug-in your iPod, it will be loaded to it.

Even converting dvd to ipod classic is not that difficult, it may take some time to convert but other than that it is all easy. iPod is one of the best piece of technology made by Apple. Specially the click, which is magnificent to use is one of the technology that I like in 5th Generation iPod video and 2nd Generation iPod Nano. If you want to convert movies and musics to iPod compatible format you might want to take a look at the Avex DVD to iPod converter software. Someone at Apple needs to revamp the way iTunes behave, sometimes some songs magically vanish from my iPod without me even deleting it from my iTunes library. Well, iTunes can and will handle some file converting for you but it won’t be able to convert all the media files out there like DVD and some other formats so you will need to use a third party software to do so. There are some great softwares out there to convert DVD and other video format to iPod compatible format. Don’t forget to do some research as there are a huge collection of Video converting software for iPod’s.
