Please read the Forum Guidelines, specifically item 2.

As for your problem, I'm not sure I understand the issue.  You're saying that video "reboots your ipod".  Does that mean that playing a video in Rockbox causes your ipod to restart?  Was this video created using the instructions from the wiki?  Are you using the newest current build?

Edit: this topic should have been started in Plugins/Viewers.

I moved your topic, but you should still change the topic title.  As krazykit reminded you, you are required to use descriptive titles when posting topics on the forums.

Also, what firmware revision are you using?  Which iPod is it?  Can you pinpoint any changes that you made when this behavior started to occur?

i am using a 30 gig ipod photo, i have been using the ltest version for around 4 months.  All my videos have worked ( i have hundreds) until today when i downloded a family guy episode and around 15-20 short videos approximately 10-20 seconds each.  Also today i have just completed my quake 1 mod and transfered it to my ipod, but i don't think thats the causr.  please give me some feedback...

Change the title of this thread to comply with our posting guidelines before posting again or I will close the thread.  You've ignored two very polite requests in this thread to comply with our guidelines, and you have been asked MULTIPLE times in the past to do so.  Here is the guideline in question:

2. Use a descriptive thread title.

In some of the forums, you are given a specific format we ask you to follow when posting your thread title. If this format is not followed, your title may be changed or your post possibly removed. In the case that a specific format is not given, we ask you to follow these guidelines.

Be sure to include a brief description of your issue or question in the title of your thread. This will help other users understand what you need and avoid clicking on threads in which they have no interest.

    Examples of unacceptable thread titles:
    "Help!"
    "Problem"
    "What Should I Do?"

    Examples of acceptable thread titles:
    "USB charging for X5 in Rockbox?"
    "SDL simulator sound problem"
    "Recording enhancements for H120"

And if I'm reading this correctly, you're using a build that's four whole months behind the current SVN build, which is now hundreds of revisions ahead of what you're using. The forum guidelines require that you should keep your build up to speed by using the latest SVN builds before asking.

You haven't even told us what you're using to encode videos, (EDIT: winff; never mind this then) or any specific error messages. I know that the iPod video (any perhaps other iPod models) may give you a "prefetch abort at C0EDBABE" error when you try to open a video while Repeat All or Repeat One is active. If that's the case, set Repeat to "Off" before playing video. Enter the file view, then press and hold MENU until a quick menu appears with three options listed (from left to right: Shuffle, Show Files, Repeat). Set Repeat to Off, then press MENU to exit back to file view.
