Until we have the Apple Music Store here, not much point in the video aspect really.. Unless "alternate" sources of quicktime video becomes available...

Then again, it still is an iPod and can play MP3/4 perfectly well... At a better price point too. That perhaps is the plan. Sell millions of iPods, get people interested in video, start a whole new market segment, launch new video iPod with bigger screen...

i'm really interested in how long will the battery last when playing video continuously...

and i think the material being used is the same as nano, which will be prone to scratches...

that is gonna be the next one but to transfer files? nah that won't happen. They have strict rules on sharing. Like for the video, it can only be shared to 5 computers (videos bought from iTunes). Blue tooth maybe for wireless headphone connection.

yeap nano is the replacement for mini and so the video ipod for the normal ipod.
ipod U2 might not be there again, since the video ipod comes in black.

arif,
you kena tunggu about 2-3 weeks before shipment arrives?

If you can't wait, run, don't walk to Singapore Apple Store selling 30Gb for S$548 = RM1,205 (2.2 exchange rate). But I bet you have to wait for a week before the shipment arrives to the stores.

Malaysia's price? Add 21% tax and I guess the price for the 30GB will be RM1,499 (to match their previous price strategy).

im sure the new apple ipod price will be the same as ipod photo (30 and 60gb). Its good value if you wanted to get an ipod all along but for video, i rather get the PSP with a bigger screen. only problem with PSP is the bloody hassle in getting videos onto the system. not to mention batt life too!

All Apple store in Malaysia suck blood - no matter if its an entertainment device (iPod) or not (computers)..

According to today's exchange rates, US$299 is only RM1127.82 and US$399 is RM 1505.02. Selling the iPods at RM 1599 and 2099 is inexcusable! No doubt we have the 20% tax. But with that included, they're gaining quite high profit margins.

As for the new iMac, it should be US$1299 which is RM4899.83. Apple Centres in Malaysia are all selling at RM5599! That's about RM 700 extra of our hard earned cash PER COMPUTER.

Since shipping is cheaper from Taiwan to Malaysia than to the U.S., shouldn't Malaysian dealers have more competitive pricing that this? The support we're getting here is not even 1/2 as good as in the U.S. (no genius bar, Mac specialty store, etc). Maybe I shouldn't b!tch too much and just drive down to Singapore to get the goods. biggrin.gif

DAMN I just bought an iPod Color on 8 October. A few days later, they come out with iPod Video.

And to think I wasted my effort installing iPodLinux and converting videos which comes out in huge filesizes because it doesn't support compressed avi.

I was wondering, can I get a refund? (Or hope there's some defect)

14.3% (RM 700) *EXTRA* profit on top of what they already get for the Apple iMac... well, that has gotta raise some eyebrows. (Remember, computers no tax).

If wanna bulk, someone has to "act" as a retailer in Singapore then get even further Apple discounts for bulk, right? I saw a RM700 nano 4GB (way below US249) somewhere in Bulk!

You've got to understand the marketing strategy...

Apple is NOT interested primarily in selling a video player.

They are interested in being the ONLINE distributor of video content i.e. music video, TV programmes and movies. To this end, the format that the video iPod(s) will support will likely be ONLY quicktime. At the present moment, it makes little sense to want to watch video over the tiny 2 inch screen. However, if you look at it from a perspective of Market Share, once the user base of video iPods reaches the millions mark, it will be very enticing for the major movie distributors to sign on the the Apple Music (Video) Store.

It's not the video PLAYER part that is the critical thing here. It is the video DISTRIBUTION channel, namely over the internet.

We will then expect to see the PSP sized video iPods hit the shelves.

i think if u purchase online, u can get the refund.Example:
New iPod launched after u purchased ur current iPod(within 10 or 14 days)
Price drop: u can get the refund back, refund= the price you bought - the current price (within 10 or 14days)..

p1p,
someone who shares my sentiment, I'm sure Apple has enough margin for dealers to make profit but here in KL there is a disparaging margin that makes Apple products expensive!

Just browse through their non-Apple stuff in any Apple store here in M'sia, and you see they sell almost everything (mouse, cables, HD casing) more expensive (5-15% ~ this is a ballpark figure)? What gives?

With more dealers than (let's say) 5 years ago, competition should make prices go down, not up.

BTW, I'm kinda shocked at the MSRP price for 5th iPod ... RM15xx?

People, please vote with your wallet, buy somewhere else IF possible!

Apple is just testing the waters with the 5th iPod.

While I doubt the video service on an iPod will turn into a moneyspinner any soon, its more likely to create an aura of "geewhiz" factor and rolling with the times, with an iPod that (can do) almost anything.

Why would anyone spend so much money US$1.99 paying for a TV show thats only 320 x 320p size when they can tape it for free (VCR), tape it while they are busy (TiVo), watch it over and over again (DVD)?

Apple makes a nice fat margin on iPods (50% ~ oh yeah!) while Apple makes only like 3-2cents of each iTunes song they sell. The majority of the profits goes to the record companies, distribution, marketing, and finally the artist themselves.

Source: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=1283

So if their music / video distribution channel grows to a sustaining profit entity, that's a big fat bonus for Apple!

aladdin,
Not exactly tax problem with Apple's computers since its tax free? I doubt Apple Malaysia can't unglue themselves with the nice fat profit margin they make. I think distribution cost might add up but I doubt till the point of a large margin?

I was thinking, marketing costs might add up too, but Apple's products still has the ability of selling themselves, so what's adding all the cost of getting a Mac? Sure damn ain't the service!

Wei,
virtually no promo for Apple products, and definately not when they have hot products like the iPod, usually their promos is to move old items like the eMac which is not selling well or the first gen. Mac Mini which was discounted to RM1,899 last pc fair.

virtually no promo for Apple products, and definately not when they have hot products like the iPod, usually their promos is to move old items like the eMac which is not selling well or the first gen. Mac Mini which was discounted to RM1,899 last pc fair.

i know that for sure... that's why i normally wait the "hot cake" to cool down before i make any purchase... i dont mind if it get "outdated" next 2 weeks after another keynote wink.gif i know what i want and what im paying for.

hahaha, im just too stingy with my hard earned money...

well... i already have a 40GB iPod. I see no big use of the video feature (90% of the time the iPod will be in my pocket), why I should waste my time to re-encode the video to h.264 or MP4? I dun even use my PSP to watch video that frequent, my eyes are not that good, and i like details... especially when the hot actress get wet in some scene... ahem excuse me. Bigger screen is my choice.

Nano is sweet, me too tempted, but paying 1000+ to get 4Gb is the pain for my wallet. I will pass too.

If every Apple customer are like me, Steve gonna have some problem.... laugh.gif

You've got to understand the marketing strategy...

Apple is NOT interested primarily in selling a video player.

They are interested in being the ONLINE distributor of video content i.e. music video, TV programmes and movies. To this end, the format that the video iPod(s) will support will likely be ONLY quicktime. At the present moment, it makes little sense to want to watch video over the tiny 2 inch screen. However, if you look at it from a perspective of Market Share, once the user base of video iPods reaches the millions mark, it will be very enticing for the major movie distributors to sign on the the Apple Music (Video) Store.

It's not the video PLAYER part that is the critical thing here. It is the video DISTRIBUTION channel, namely over the internet.

We will then expect to see the PSP sized video iPods hit the shelves.

Thar's Gold In Them Hills!

yes, think of it as this way, it shouldnt be of what THEY want, its what WE want (the buyers/customers), iPod became famous because it could support MP3, and looks really darn nice too, with massive HDD space, if we remove the support for MP3 and replace it with quicktime audio (which is not popular and is a piece of crap), even with the good looks and such, the iPod wont be as succesful as it is today.

and as for me i'd prefer a player which can support as many formats as possible, and with the absence of DivX/XviD format playback, they already loose one of their customer (imagine many more ppl like me), when we dont buy their product, how can they convey their 'business plan'?

Just looking at the Video Ipod and the Creative Zen Vision. No doubt the Ipod is small but the Zen is able to play Divix plus the image quality "seems" better. There is also the Archos AV500 which can record too from your TV/satellite box. So what gives the Ipod Video the edge?

Again people,
The Apple iPod is a portable music device, that incidently plays video in the form of H.264 and MPEG4 hence it is an iPod that PLAYS video.

The current 5th gen iPod will not be able to play any other video format/s because the system-on-chip (PortalPlayer 5022) only supports native encoding/decoding for only H.264/MPEG4.

You can still play your Divx video, you just need to convert it to MPEG4, thats all...

zaakath,
Creative Zen Vision is a Portable Media Player, and works best as one. You can load loads thousand of songs into it and treat it as a MP3 portable device, but I doubt anyone would want to carry such a big device around in their pockets or bags?

The 5th gen iPod is a further update of the world's most popular (and best selling) portable music device, and now Apple has seen fit to add a bigger screen and the ability to play video. It won't replace your favourite Shinco or Zen Vision or any other video playing device, just treat it as an extra bonus if you are a new user to an iPod!

zaakath,
iPod's main selling feature is still to play audio, and play it with style AND substance wink.gif . Now with the 5th gen, it plays video as well, something some users might find useful, but if you don't want to, you can just ignore it.

While both devices share some similar capability, you'll be better off getting a Zen Vision if you want to rip and decode your DVD or downloaded Divx collection to watch on the go, and nothing more.

A nice little tool to convert your DVDs to not so small MP4 files.

Sorry mates, only for OS X and Linux!

http://handbrake.m0k.org/

What is HandBrake?

HandBrake is a GPL'd multiplatform, multithreaded DVD to MPEG-4 ripper/converter. HandBrake was originally available on the BeOS, but now has been ported over to MacOS X and to GNU/Linux.

* Supported sources:
o Any DVD-like source: VIDEO_TS folder, DVD image or real DVD (even encrypted)
o PAL or NTSC
o AC-3, LPCM or MPEG audio tracks
* Outputs:
o File format: MP4, AVI or OGM
o Video: MPEG-4 or H.264 (1 or 2 passes or constant quantizer encoding)
o Audio: AAC, MP3, Vorbis or AC-3 pass-through (supports encoding of several audio tracks)
* Misc features
o Chapter selection
o Basic subtitle support (burned into the picture)
o Integrated bitrate calculator
o Picture deinterlacing, cropping and scaling
o Grayscale encoding

Corrections on my part,

Both Jefferies and Company (http://www.jefco.com/) and ArsTechnica (http://arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/video-ipod.ars) have dissected the new 5th gen iPod and found out a dedicated Broadcom chip videocore BCM2722 which does among other things:
5 mega-pixel digital camera support, MPEG-4 VGA or H.264 CIF video encoding/decoding at 30 frames per second and TV output.

Broadcom's news release: http://investor.broadcom.com/phoenix.zhtml...9003&highlight=

The DSP chip is PortalPlayer 5021C-TDF chip (same chip as the one in the new iPod Nano as well), and NOT the 5022.

iPod with video works with the new iTunes 6. It will work with older iTunes but you will not be able to copy videos into your new iPod with video, just music.

iTunes 6 is available for both Mac & PC. So iPod with video will work will a PC (Win2K and above).

aladdin,
On most cases, it would be valuable if you evaluate on what you WANT (e.g. I want to play games, listen to my modest music collection, etc), not on what the device offers.

Keeps you sane by doing that, at least your needs will be fulfilled and your money well spent!

go call up apple singapore, they have a price-match policy. refer them to the website above. then they will check and they will match the price. however, only if you've got friends there. apple m'sia pricing is killing the market.

ps. you can also order from the website..not sure if they ship to m'sia

The PSP is a big money-time-sucka, in a bad way!

Get at least (minimum, 1Gb is better) 512Mb MS Duo card = RM350++?

Get a MS card reader to copy files to the card = RM35++

Get a game = RM150++

Buy a PSP=RM900++

Spend countless hours trying to find a PSP with a BootROM of ver 1.5, or you will only get a change to play that 1 game you manage to buy.

Yes it can be an external storage, in fact, any iPod can be an external storage, in the iPod 30Gb case, the external storage is in the form of HDD.

Not sure about the transfer size limit on iPod, but I've read it somewhere that it has to do with the file system format that you initially formatted it on first use.

Since when did you need to service a hard disk? If the HD dies, there isnt much you can do with, maybe slap it around, pry it open to get a really nice magnet.

There are no "limitations" per se, its either a 30Gb or 60Gb, fill it up with music and rock on.

You don't need to worry about file management or disk defragmentation (you won't see the effects long enough though, by the time Apple comes out with the 6gen iPod you'll soon forget your 5th gen iPod wink.gif )

You can find 3rd party software to upload files to your soon to be iPod, but why bother? iTunes was designed for iPod and vice versa. iTunes allows you to manage your gigabytes of music (if you have that many music files) in a clean, efficient and elegant way.

I highly recommend you to download iTunes 6.0.1 today and start ripping your CDs to your PC, in preparation for your iPod. Create music playlists, and once you got your iPod, just sync and your done!

PS: Even if you end up without an iPod, iTunes is a great program to have around and manage your music library, try it today!

Since when did you need to service a hard disk? If the HD dies, there isnt much you can do with, maybe slap it around, pry it open to get a really nice magnet.

There are no "limitations" per se, its either a 30Gb or 60Gb, fill it up with music and rock on.

You don't need to worry about file management or disk defragmentation (you won't see the effects long enough though, by the time Apple comes out with the 6gen iPod you'll soon forget your 5th gen iPod wink.gif )

You can find 3rd party software to upload files to your soon to be iPod, but why bother? iTunes was designed for iPod and vice versa. iTunes allows you to manage your gigabytes of music (if you have that many music files) in a clean, efficient and elegant way.

I highly recommend you to download iTunes 6.0.1 today and start ripping your CDs to your PC, in preparation for your iPod. Create music playlists, and once you got your iPod, just sync and your done!

PS: Even if you end up without an iPod, iTunes is a great program to have around and manage your music library, try it today!

I totally agree with you that itune is the great software, in fact, I am using it for both my ibook and window...

The reason I want to buy the 30g is besides I can store tons of music or video and photo, I also can keep my file such as excel, word, power point and some ebook, cause I may need it to carry my file back from office to work at home .. (poor man sad.gif )

but I am struggle because I want something flash drive base like nano so that i can carry it everywhere including jogging, I always thinking I can jog farer distant if there is a music with me .. laugh.gif but for ipod video will it lag when I am moving??

My bugdet is only buy the ipod video 30g or grab the nano 4gb one .. really is hard decision to make ..

my gf's sister is going to give her iPod shuffe and since she dont have any pc at home, so the only way is to sync from my pc.. but I hear itune only work with one ipod only, right ?? just to clarify, although I can use one to pc and oen to mac... ha

Accorind got Apple, they prefer to call it Ipod 5th gen instead of Ipod Video
and the Nano is actually a Mini replacement model. Try googling it
U'll find a comparative chart as well

yeah man... black ipod video is cool enough...but i heard the problem is it's easy to have finger print..and easy to see the scratches...

and the white one...it's cool too(apple's colour..) but this one easy to get dirty on the clickwheel..like my friend's 60gb ipod photo(white)

now confused to decide....

If I Am Student, How & Where To Get Cheap Or Discounted iPod?

I think it only works if you're a student in singapore. Not sure if m'sia has the same policy. Try the method I gave earlier. The price difference for the 30Gb si only 4 dollars.


basically, goto http://www.apple.com.sg/education/
click on "The Apple Store" next to "K-12 Education"

played around with one today..
the video is really clear
loaded an anime in there and it's watchable
can read subtitles and all but it has to be about 1 foot away.

observations:
even thinner than 4G
black is beautiful
video podcasts don't show up under "video podcasts menu"
lack of ipod protectors at the moment
the bundled one is just a simple pouch
missing a port on the top (not sure what it's for but it was beside the headphone jack)

all-in-all, it plays music pretty well and that's what one really needs. video playback is awesome but battery life is shortened tremendously (to 2hrs n 3 hrs). video podcasts are cool.

I am thinking of getting a unit of Ipod video together with Apple iPod Camera Connector.
I was hoping to use it to connect to my Canon 350D. Apple web site only stated they support Canon D20. Anyone tried it with 350D?
also, new Ipod video will direct transfer the picture from camera to the Ipod without converting or compressing the photos quality / format, right?

Appreciate if somone can help me to verify this, then at least i can buy it to serve my needs.. hehe..

And earn RM 100 also consider very low la. Apple control prices. They have to pay the shop rent and everything. That's why Malaysia prices still very high if considered to other country.

I checked out stores at lowyat and the mac studio in Harvey Norman.
Some stores have the black version of iPod 5G 30GB very limited in stock. These iPod's are selling like hotcakes.

I saw Shure E3c selling for RM999, outrageous! these sellers trying to chop our necks.

hey guys, no review so far? ive been looking thru the pages.

well so far only kuan something bought it.

has anyone got it so far?

i am currently on my ipod mini 1st gen, satisfied to bits with it. but my reason in getting an mp3 player cause i love my music, and i wanted to dump my songs all into a player. but that time syok weih 900 something can get ipod mini. so got it. i think few months later 2nd gen out and now nano and then photo new. and then now video.

so far, i am thinking, because of poor batt life and the need to improve my storage, im going for the video. but i want to see how the performance is from a real user. and not those reviews you read online or something.

my mini has superb quality, and im using it as my jogging unit, to me its small enuf. nano is superbly small. but wait awhile, it'll drop soon. im pretty sure bout it if you guys want to buy it.

if you read time magazine bout 2 weeks back. you see how steve jobs runs his company. its smart. and its efficient that now its a marketing giant and can play the card the way they want it.

the reason for macs sucsses even thought they are loosing otu to microsoft. is because they make everything. they are the administrator. they make os X for the MAC. so both ways they win. but both ways they make the system specifically for the mac, that way they will fine tune with it.

but microsoft goes on bout spreading it to every computer maker on the planet. that way there are ways and gaps for bugs and all. it soudns logical to me

and now making their own mp3 player, and then later moving on to music by paying with itunes music store. its like i got an ipod. why dont i just use the damn itunes since its with it. and they really did a good job with it. now with the video, they might be the first to monopolize online music and video scene, with itunes already being the biggest in the world, for pay sites. and now their heading the first few with paying for video. its perfect. and by connecting the new dock up with the video to your tv you get to watch it there too!

its a monopolization. honestly.

i honestly love my ipod alot. its superb in quality, looks, and support for it , apple centres all around the world!!!!

the video will be great for me. but i had said alot,

NOW SOME ONE GIVE ME A REVIEEWWWW biggrin.gif

together with shipping and the camera connector is about USD420 for Ipod video 60GB.
Yes, they do charged sales tax. but if you convert it, the price you paid for is way cheaper then you get it from Msia.
Msia is simply OVERPRICE!!!!

Indeed the oily surface is very noticeable especially on the mirror finished. But I don't care since I'm going to replace it wit IS sooner. Tissue does not work on them if you want to remove the oily fingerprint. sweat.gif

No matter what, do not take off the protective skin that comes with the iPod! Have it on temp till you get a better protection, if not leave it as it is.

I took off mine and i regret very much, my iPod has fine scratches on it. I used a clean cloth and wipe it, scratches also can happen.

Currently i have it wrapped with cling wrap, but i dont think it's good for the ipod, i notice some effects and i don't know how to describe it. Because of that i had to use the cloth to wipe it and more fine scratches keep appearing.

Anyone know where to get invisible shield for iPod 5G in m'sia?

Try use Videora Ipod converter to convert the avi files and when you drag the file to library make sure the title is not too long otherwise it won't go into your library

vid better la...nano's low capacity and the price is so high...and vid's 30GB is jus less than 1600. 2GB nano is oredy 9xx and 4GB 12xx...see who's expensive than who? with a vid-watching functionality at such a reasonable price than the highly-priced nano, it's certainly a better choice to get.

With the new firmware, some vids won't have any sound, and after watching vids, it's really hard to turn off the ipod.

i have tried it... most noticeable change is the clickwheel become more responsive, no more laggy. also, when u hold down menu, it will go to main menu, instead of turning off backlight in the previous firmware.

I don't have the patience to actually put it on myself, that's why I would really like to buy from a shop and let them install it for me. The guys at Mac Centre Ikano was really professional with the installation, using this blowing kind of gadget to blow off the dusts on the ipod, but they didn't have the Martin Fields protector.

other than videora, u can try total video converter....
for TVC u gotta find the crack though, else u will see some text in the video.

else if u are using quicktime pro and u wanna convert .mov files to mp4.. use quicktime to do it... simple and 100% compatibility.

For mac I use iSquint. A great and easy software to convert. Just drag & drop. Or you could probably use the latest iTunes, it's got an option to convert videos for ipod, much more easier than using quicktime, in which u need quicktime pro.

I just got myself a aluminium case for my 5G from Sim Lim Sq concourse for $15 (SGD). Pretty good pricing but very limited quantity. Comes in either gold or silver. Same for 30 and 60 gb. Pretty good pricing. I only saw one silver one left but got a few gold.

Silicon case, cheapest I saw was $11.

hmm.....that day my ipod(video30g with latest firmware) hang for 12hr..i thought that it hanged coz my ex-computer dun have itunes so no software to update it.....it hand with a sign 'do not disconnect' and the sign is not blinkig at all....it doesn't fucntion at all no matter i press whatever button.....and finally i reset it and problem fixed....anyone know the reason why?

here's some possibility that i thought so far
1. overcharged(coz i leave it there for many hours for uploading song/video/photo anytime)
2. no software to let the ipod run smoothly when the data cable is plugged(coz my ex-com is being used by my bro now...so didn't install I Tunes)
3. didn't press 'safety remove hardware' when eject it from the data cable(i remembered that i forgot to press the button when i plug off the cable)
4. didn't eject the ipod from the data cable when restarting com/shut down com(normally my mother will use my com in the night and she'll shut down the com and on the same time my ipod was connected to the computer)

hmm.....i would like to know that whether ur ipod hanged before or not?

thanks.....

I've also been questioning myself the same question, "Is it gonna be of any use other than for charging?". Until now, I still have yet to answer that question. Hmmm...

but for rm199, i think it is better to save tht money for a nice earphone... besides if wanna charge then it is much worth than the apple charger cos the charger is about rm199 so might as well get the dock..
ur ipod even stands nicely on the dock

My iPod 30gb video hangs all the time. I just reset it everytime it hang. But i think it might hang cos u keep it connected to the pc for too long. Sometimes mine will hang if i lock it while its charging, and sometimes it wil hang if i lock it too long while its switched off. DUNO WHY.

You sure it won't turn on? Cos for me, if I turn off my iPod and put the hold switch on, if it's for more than a few hours, it would take some time for the iPod to start up again when I unlock the hold switch and press the center button. Did you press the button after you unlock the hold switch then? I think I've read somewhere that there's a possibility of doing damage to your iPod if you reset it too many times.

hi dude
same thing happened to me..
but now ok le..
so the solution will be....
1. download the latest ipod updater
2. run it and chose restore...(clear everything on ur HDD)
3. then insert ur library back
this was wad i did and it neva hang for a long time le
one more thing, if u wanna stop listen to a song, jus pause it and the switch the hold button on and keeep ur ipod... try not to hold the play/pause button to switch it off.. it will not hang at all when u restart it!

well u have a point there...apple might just come out with another newer model of ipod and extra features added to it...

but why cant u think of it this way?
get one now..you wont regret getting it if u are really a music lover..and can stand with using iTunes...

if u thinking of scared that apple might coming out with new model. ..well the desktop or laptop that u are using now will come out with newer model as well.
desktop systems will have new and more powerful hardware releases even more frequent than ipods.. the graphics card that u are using now might become obsolete in the next few months...how about that?... if u keep on waiting.. then u dont have to buy liao... may as well save up and buy something that wont become 'old'...

just get the ipod lar... haha

i bought my ipod color 4G a month before they came out with ipod video.

i was so tempted to sell it off and buy the video but decided against it because, the video features is just a bonus for me. my priority is for music. so, i've never regretted it.

on the other hand...i might be buying the 6G ipod...skip one generation ma..

no worries over that issue..i think even if they come out with a new model..it will be months later...it doesn't seem to have much room to expand now..except coming out with nicer designs..or supporting mur formats..for the time being..just use what they have..it won't be a waste of money...it's apple anyway~~ thumbup.gif

oredi spend around 2+k...the silicon casing is free ma...

ipod itself oredi rm1499...plus the rca cable+remote+dock which all in 1 box package...rm549...in the box got also wall charger+few socket+usb cable...

the remote i hv try, is abit useless coz can use for forward, rewind, play/pause only...the menu button no use ler...only good for forwarding song when paying with the av receiver...

btw, the sound play thru av receiver not bad...cool...

Sorry for the noob question, how do i actually sort my Music Videos and put it in the default Music Video playlist, now all i can do is create my own playlist but it doesn't auto play, goto select manually...1 by 1.

Or is it only for purchased music video? I did try to purchase some to test it out but dang, the credit card policy, region restricted...

Edited : nvm, for some reason it nows autoplay all the music videos after i upload more into my ipod. blink.gif

can , get moo iPod converter , If you want'em , PM me..I have it , I got it as a Free Gift [2 Licence Keys] , and it allows you to convert from VCD ,DVIX to .mp4 file format...

Yes , Macs are much more better when you have an iPod , like you could sync with contacts , export movies that you created using iDVD/imovie directly to your iPod

if you're into 'productivity' then a mac is 50x much more better then a PC ...

Hi Guys, I got my iPod 30G 2 weeks ago but only got time to play with it yesterday. Here's the problem, I charged the thing for 8 hours the 1st time (using 1.1 USB). I off Backlight Timer, EQ, Clicker to test the battery and only got like 6-7 hours of music playback I've called the salesman and he said that they need 5-10 working days if I were to claim warranty psssh...

My questions are: -
1) Anyone facing the same battery problem?
2) My total disk space is only 26.7G, how bout yours? Just curious...
3) I'm using Videora, what's the best setting for converting movies

I hope you guys/gals can help me out, thank you

I've tried putting on the screen protector,its very frustrating because it is seemingly impossible to perfectly stick it without air bubbles getting caught in it.I threw it away because some dirt got stuck on it.Anybody knows a way to perfectly apply the screen protector?

u put the protector sticky-side up on a flat table.. then mate ur ipod face to that protector. this way u can place it easier horizontally and vertically.if got air bubble somewhere in it, pull out both side of the protector while the middle still stick with the ipod (to make sure the position still precise). use credit card or to squeeze the bubble out, from middle to the side. i do it that way.. hope this will help

I hav convert sum drama and add into iTues, set the Movie Kind to TV Show. After sync I cant found thoose movies in iPod under Videos, but if u check from Music 1 by 1, u can found thoose movies. And under Videos option onli hav Videos, Movies, Music Videos and Video Podcsts, no TV Show. I guess TV Show option will show if there is any TV Show u purchase from Music Store. I cant confirm this, coz I dun hav a account to purchase any TV Show from Music Store.

Sometimes the battery life is flat..It depends , if you pause , play , rewind and skip songs , you would decrease its battery life

Pay higher for bigger capacity and thicker hard drive...60GB is thicker than 30GB ones.

Steve Job is so smart that when this video iPod was announced, he showed only 30gig iPod instead of 60gig ones...cos 30gigs thinner smile.gif

still the difference is there. something like 5 hours of difference.

seems like not all kind of video could be transfer to the itunes...(even it's converted already...) yet....even after possible to put in itunes library...some video can't get into the ipod...is it because of the ipod or the files itself...???or maybe something wrong with the converter??? cause i have 1 video files which after converted with two different converter still can't go in to the ipod...i used videora and total video converter btw...

Hello Guys, is the ipod video suppose to have the built in speaker for the clicker? cause mine doesn't produce any sound at all from it. my old 4G has it, so i'm wondering if the built in speaker has been taken for the ipod video. if it's untrue then i'll have to send it back to apple already =.=

and 1 more thing, is there any good photo and video managers out there for ipod video?
itunes sux at syncing photos, i can't choose which to ipload in and which to not, only can be choosen by folders.
