1. there is a program to help you with this: "commonsense.exe"
2. i don't know much about video on Ipods. but my guess is that maybe your videos are converted into glorious XViD format, which, for unfamiliar players, will usually play video with no sound. encode to a different codec maybe? vanilla mpegII?

Re: iPod help.

I'm not sure how I pods or MP3 players in general are supposed to display information, but doesn't it make sense for the tracks to show up under the original artists name? I would imagine that you would have each compilation in a separate folder anyway, at least that's how it works on a Sony Ericsson W810i.

I what ?

k..... dunno if you managed to solve your problems with your ipod but i have a few suggestions that might help

1. you need to convert your videos into a divx format 1st n then that file needs to be a .mp4 file.i've tried it n my videos turn out fine. i use the jodix free ipod video converter. its pretty decent.

2. the file name must be going into what the original artist is because if you ripped the cd or something to that effect the id3 tag is what your ipod reads when it is showing your song name. so your file name might be abc but if in the id3 tag the information stored is xyz then thats whats going to show up.

hope it helps.

Yeah, you should edit the tags of your mp3s before transfering them to iPod. If you want to play some album, look for it via albums menu, not artists menu. Also, track numbers should be something like 101, 102, 103, ..., 201, 202, 203... in case of a double CD in one folder.

Posted by AndreaCKY772 on Feb-21-2007 22:59:

did you try opening itunes and fixing the issue there? changing the id tags?

lcky you for getting 30g. i have the ipod nano and it's 4gb with no video... it's smaller, but doesn't come withas much as the other ipods
