you have to make sure that you have the right kind of file first
it has to be a mp4 (quicktime file)
you either can get a converter to take avi files to the right format (just google for one the one I have was around $25.00) or purchase movies direct from Itunes...they are already in the right format.

if you want the name of the programs I use to rip a dvd and convert to mp4 PM me back. I would have to message you once I get back to my dorm room where I have it on that machine.

GL - it is wicked to watch movies on my iPod and with one cord you can use it to show on your tv as well. :)

Here is what I use....

I use DVD to VCD SVCD AVI Converter that you can purchase at www.dvd-converter.net for ripping.
My converter to iPod and stuff is WinAVI video Converter (iPod/PSP/3GP/MP4) at www.winavi.com

Woot for you!
I am so very happy. If you need anything more, just let me know!
I have four iPods now. LOL (video, 2 nano and a shuffle)
I am getting to be an old pro!
