Encode them to the proper format using the instructions on PluginMpegplayer, then copy them to your iPod's hard disk (not through iTunes).

I assume you mean your iPod Photo, not iPhoto...

EDIT: In order to see your iPod as a hard disk on your Mac, you may have to change a setting in iTunes:

You can just copy them to your ipod like you would to any other disk or drive. You can put the videos in any directory structure you want and then use the rockbox filebrowser to navigate to them and play them.

How do you copy your audio files in your iPod?
Use the exact same method for video files too.

Of course I assume that you already run rockbox and you know how to put audio files in it.
And in case I confused you more, do as ki said, treat your ipod (when connected to your PC) exactly like you would another USB flashdrive or Hard Disk.

This could be confusing since some iPod users use iTunes to synch their audio files so they can listen to them with either firmware.

thisisme, does the phrase 'drag-and-drop' help?
