How to get videos onto your iPod video
The iPod video is known as the last generation of iPods, which surprised the
market and the sales since its appearance. Basically, this new device is able to
play videos. If this seems like fun, the technical part might need some guidance.
Firstly, you should know that both the PSP and iPod can play H.264 / MPEG-4
encoded videos with AAC audio tracks.
Due to this fact, the resolution is rather
limited, together with the limitation of the bit rates that you can use on the
device. For the new iPod video, this limits means (for the H.264 video) up to up
to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240 and 30 frames per second. For the MPEG-4 video, the
limits are up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480 and the same 30 frames per second. Even
more, the AAC audio bit rate is around 160 Kbps. After establishing these limits,
the next step is to establish the source of the video, which can be either from a
DVD or a video of the computer.
In other terms, the company Apple claims, in a purely informative ad which is
posted on the official website, that the new iPod, as they call the new iPod video,
can store 15, 000 songs, 25, 000 photos and not less than 150 hours of video.
If wanting to get a video from a DVD, then the first thing you should do is to
insert the DVD in the device. After this, you should open (in case it doesn’t
immediately open by itself) the DVD, using file and open DVD from the menu.
Check the options in the DVD menu, to set up everything as you like, meaning
language, subtitles or chapters. Begin playing the movie, using the DVD menu to
navigate. When the movie begins, you should press the record button and select
the folder in which you want to store the recorded files. When you want to end
the recording, simply click the stop button and if the recording goes well, there
will be a screen confirmation that you have converted your file successfully.
If you wish to convert a video from your computer to your iPod video, then the
first thing that you should do is go to the menu file and click open video file.
After this, your video is supposed to begin to play, the perfect moment to adjust
the video as you like. Also, you can set the perfect moment to start the recording,
using the bottom playback controls. When you decided this, click the button
record and feel free to stop it at any time. After recording, just like in the case of
importing videos from a DVD device, there will be a message on the screen saying
that everything went on successfully.
If respecting these basic rules, the videos and movies will be stored carefully in
your iPod and you will be free to watch them, at any time. Still, be aware of the
fact that the iPod offers limited space and resolution, which means that you
should be picky when deciding what to keep and what to delete. The new iPod
video is a challenging and innovative product that combines music with images,
offering, for the first time, the possibility of playing video on such a small digital device. |
