Hey guys...I've been using several software to convert DVD movies into mp4 format (compatable to iPod). The best I've found so far is ImTOO DVD Mavie Converter and it's not free but you can look for it by using LimeWire or other like that. This software can even catch the audio from DVD files (excellent if you wanna have mp3s from a DVD Live Concert).I wouldn't recommend RedChair 'cause it messed all the art of my albums' covers... I hated that software.Hope this info is useful for you.

M. Jeltema, which one(site) did you choose to convert the movies? makayama, videora, or redchairsoftware? and how much space did the movie use up on your ipod?

This is just the divice; it does not come with the software; that has to be downloaded for your specific operating system. There is more than one choice for the software, (more that one brand name). It is tricky to work correctly on a MAC for Blu-ray, but DVDs work much better. Almost all software available will play DVD an CD on this drive.Apple does not have a business interest supporting external drives like blu-ray, since most of its software, applications, entertainment, are available through iTunes. very respectfully, Curtthom@cox.net, Frankfurt, Germany

Hey, I had the same problem getting DVDs onto my Vision. What you need are two programs that work with one another. AnyDVD and CloneDVDMobile. Do a Google search for them. AnyDVD actively disables the Copyright-protection on "any DVD" and CloneDVDMobile lets you choose what model MP3 player you have, what size you want to make the video, and what chapters off the DVD you want to convert. They give you a trial period that lasts about 20 days, so you'll have plenty of time. Check it out! And about getting videos period. I've aquired all my videos from media sites like extremefunnyhumor.com, ebaumsworld.com, and killsometime.com. Those sites typically have a link to be able to save the video onto your hard drive.

Not mac compatiable but you can load it onto anycomputer with normal. Processor or with windows media player as far as a ipod i guess you could change the format to put in your itunes then download it into your ipod as video file format. But a mac has a ios processor aka. Lions or safari. So the computer part no unless you buy special video incrypting software. And believe me thats a big headache unless you know what your doing so if you have a hp or acer or dell or lavero computer. Be better any questions feel free to ask but the glasses are kool i bought a pair for my son who loves them

What format are your files in? If MP3 then there will be zero problem. I have all of my MP3's on an external hard drive as well & all of my tag info was kept intact when I imported the tracks into iTunes. If the format is WMA then iTunes will want to convert the files into a format that the iPod will play. Tags will likely remain intact but the files will be changed I believe.

Are you connecting you ipod touch through the USB port? You also have to set the stereo to AUX hear the ipod play. I'm using an ipod classic 80 GB and works for me...just no video. Once the stereo connects to the ipod all your play lists, etc will come up on the stereo screen. I just bought an adapter to be able to watch video from you ipod as well but have't installed it yet. Hope this helps

I connect my Ipad and play any file from iPad. I think you need a player because hard drive will not play any file for you.

I tried the USB with videos I downloaded from Youtube,I feel it would work fine with Itunes ones,and if not,they can always be converted to a different format.

Yes, kind of. The unit only plays MP3 files, so you need files in that format. If you download iTuneMyWalkman (ITMW) (shareware), it will convert songs from itunes to mp3 and load them into the player (follow directions, or the software will erase stuff on the walkman) If you want the album art transferred to the player, the art needs to be in jpg format. Apple/Itunes tend to use png format which won't work. Also, forget video on this device. Three sony software products do not convert video properly. No third party software converts the video either (apple or windows) spent hours with sony support- They do not know how to get video to work either.

yes..... i love mine. this is the third one ive bought, both of my previous players were lost and stolen. The only feature that i find has any hinderances, is to configure a video to play on the player. The movie or video must be a certain format to play. a plus is tha fm radio, which a ipod does not have.

handbrake is a good tool (for macs & beta version for pc-google search) to covert dvd to ipod format & drag to itunes or your ipod directly.

i really need to do this also how is it possible???? i need to add movies to usb so i can watch them on tablet but even though i have digital copies i cannot do it, how do you back up any other dvd that would be better still as i can watch all my movies thanks bill

the simple answer is yes, you can load them. you dont have to pay for what you already have on cd. and its very easy. also, i recommend using limewire to download music. i have more than a thousand songs on my ipod video and i've never paid for anything on itunes. you just download. and its legal. technically.

Donald, Have you had any success fixing this problem? I am having the same problem, I try transferring DVD files to the MP3 and it seems to work, but when I go to play the video on the mp3 it gives me an error. I think it needs to be converted but don't know how. Thanks.
