iPod -- How To?

[Snowman5933]

My SO recently got a video iPod as a gift. She's having alot of fun with it, but would like to add a movie or two from our dvd library. Does anyone know how you could convert a dvd movie to an iPod compatible format?

If anyone knows the answer, let me know PLEASE as well. I have come to the conclusion that ipod sucks big hairy nasty ass, and there is NO WAY to actually put VIDEO on a VIDEO IPOD!!!!!!!! Never mind the fact that I paid an arm and a leg for the damned thing, it is simply the biggest pain in the ass software-wise that I think I have EVER seen.

I hear ya! I have yet to get video onto my Ipod. Very frustrating.

I'm a bit confused by this as well.

I do know that vids have to be converted into Apple's .mov format before they can be loaded into an iPod. I've done this with conversion software. But afterwards, its still not a straightforward process to arrange the video files on the iPod for viewing. The iTunes software allows the user to easily create music playlists but I've had trouble creating video playlists.
