nofear505:
there is diiferent file types i can turn my video file into ex. mpeg2 and mpeg2 (video only) the only time the video works on my ipod is when i convert the video file into mpeg (video only). when use mpeg2 the video doesnt work.

Febs:
First of all, you don't say which program you are using to convert the files.  I assume you are using WinFF, because you asked questions earlier about how to save the WinFF presets.xml file.  If that is the case, then I don't see the options you are referring to.  Perhaps you didn't properly save the presets.xml file.  If you are using the presets, you will see options like "Apple Nano 4:3."  All you need to do is select the correct preset for your player and hit "Convert."

from the way you describe i'm doing something very wrong. i am using Wiff. could you please explain you step by step process of replacing the preset .xlm

sorry, i can tell your getting annoyed

Febs:
This is how it is described in the wiki:


--- Quote ---2) After the program is installed, replace the presets.xml in the WinFF folder (default is C:\Program Files\WinFF\) with this one: presets.xml
--- End quote ---

Basically, what you need to do is right-click on the preset.xml link on the wiki page.  Select "save file as ..."  Navigate to the place where WinFF is installed on your computer.  As the wiki page notes, the default folder is C:\Program Files\WinFF\ so unless you installed it to a different place, look for that folder.  Save the presets.xml file there.

Now, exit WinFF (if you have it running) and re-start it.  Look for the drop-down menu called "Choose Format to Convert To ..."  If you properly installed the presets.xml file, you should have a list that starts with "Apple Ipod Nano 4:3" and contains a number of other Rockbox-support platforms.

that file isn't there. instead there "preset          XML"
is that what im looking for?
what i do is open that file select all, delete, then i copy paste the new file.
