Database missing songs on iPod Video

<< < (2/2)

zajacattack:
I can't help you with words like "probably". Please check exactly what format they are and their tags.

fri:
Turns out they are MP4 files, iTunes won't tell me exactly where they are in the iPod but they should be in iPod control/music with all of the other music. Sorry for being ambiguous before :(

zajacattack:
Can you use foobar200 (or something similar) to see the exact codec? I have a hunch that they may be HE-AAC files.

Do the files play OK from the file browser?

Chronon:
HE-AAC files should show up, I think.  They just may not play at full speed.  

fri, you didn't mention whether or not you're getting entries in the database that look like
--- Code: ---< Untagged >
--- End code ---
.  

Also, if you check the versions that you have on your computer with a proper tagging tool can you verify that they are properly tagged?  I have seen situations where iTunes will not write metadata tags to the file, but will store the info in its own database.
