MPEG Player Does not show my movie file?
SataniK:
Yeah I know this but I don't understand maybe it is my file type like a regular mpeg 4 file I am thinking that could be it as I see it only plays mpeg 1 and mpeg 2 but movies that I find and convert ALWAYS convert to an mpeg 4 could someone help me solve this problem?

What, all by themselves? ;)
Use a different converter, specifically I would recommend WinFF as described in the Wiki. It's simple and works a treat.
SataniK:
Thanks bascule I'll try that converter. Thanks everyone I am still a noob at this stuff so thanks for putting up with my questions you have probably heard 100 times but you got to learn some how I guess...
Thanks!

Edit: Whoa I got a video from youtube and converted the .flv to mpeg using the above converter and converter was very basic and easy to understand but when I then take that mpeg file and put it in a fold that I made in the root of my ipod and go to that folder from the file browser there is no file showing up. What am I doing wrong?

Do you have your file type view set to All, Music or Supported? If you have it set to Music, a movie won't show up.
Which file extension does your newly created file have?
and...
(to avoid a possible later question)
Does the newly created movie play properly on your PC?
SataniK:
Ok first off I don't quite understand what you mean by "set to all" so if you would not mind rephrasing that, that would be great. Let me walk you through my steps so maybe I can be more clear and we can get this solved. I go to youtube and find a video. I copy the link of my selected video and paste it into vixy.net a video converter that does youtube videos. I select avi and let that convert. After that is done I take the avi and put it in the converter described above and select mpeg2 and convert. I noticed that my avi does not play but my mpeg does but it is crazy pix elated.
