yeah i it can works with 5G video.

1. download the firmware where to confirm ur iPod Video is 5G or 5.5G (5.5G is with search function).
2. then when u downloaded the firmware.
3. Plug in ur iPod to ur computer or laptop. (iPod window format support only not mac format)
3. open iPodWizard.
4. choose firmware file then locate ur firmware.
5. after that just click Write to iPod.
6. wait it finish to change the firmware. that's all.

post here to get solution if anythings go wrong. if somethings go wrong u can always go back to the original iPod firmware. no worry.

huh that is the direat link already, if u r using 5.5G iPodVideo mean come with the search function else ur iPod is iPod Video 5G.

ermm if u want iPod Touch firmware download the

iPod touch comes to iPod video: Version 1

5G: http://www.mediafire.com/?9zktdyjgoni
5.5G: http://www.mediafire.com/?9gj0gkyyfys
____________________________________________________________________

if u want iPod Classic firmware is this

iPod classic to iPod video: Update 2.1 is here!

1.2.1 firmware:
5G: http://www.mediafire.com/?4d0ytddmtba
5.5G: http://www.mediafire.com/?ambg2ju3yem
Resources only (5G and 5.5G): http://www.mediafire.com/?5bcujvnk9y0

1.2. 2 firmware:

5G: http://www.mediafire.com/?bcjhzgd1jwo
5.5G: http://www.mediafire.com/?2lx9vxw135j

yes u choose the firmware file then u browse it then wait it to load and then click on write to iPod. make sure u connect ur iPod. ermm if something goes wrong with ur firmware u can anytime restore to original iPod firmware by disk mode.

as my personal tried the new iPod touch firmware in my iPod 5G. ermm is a bit slow compare to original. some more some function i can't play well like photo import that let me connect my camera to my iPod. but seems like can't. anyway i like the new interface

well i didn't have this kind of problem. ok i think do it with this way.

1. connect ur iPod to ur computer or laptop. select ur iPod. do not check the "open iTunes when iPod connect"
2. eject ur iPod and quit iTunes.
3. connect ur iPod again, and launch iPodWizard.
4. load the firmware and click on write to iPod.

if not try to restart ur computer or laptop and try once again. sorry i didn't have this problem so i just guessing is it ur iPod check the "open iTunes after iPod was connected" GUESSING

open task manager.. at the processes tab.. close ituneshelper.exe and iPodService.exe

Then open Ipodwizard and connect your Ipod to your computer.. hope this helps

I already upgraded my Ipod Video 5.5G to the Touch firmware with no problems..

Not so sure.. I think its Skinx+ or something.. Just remember as you go up the escalator you can see it.

Price should be around RM40-60
