i finally figured out how to rip dvd's to my computer. i then put them in ipod video format using both podner and isquint. After that they load fine into itunes but when i go to update my ipod they wont update. I can play the videos in itunes so i know that they work. Does anyone have any insight to why this would happen and how to fix it???

just download handbrake to rip directly into ipod format.

I agree about handbrake. It's much simpler than what you're doing. And further remember that just because something plays in iTunes doesn't not in any way mean that it will play on the iPod.

Another vote for handbrake, read 'how to' here:

I downloaded handbrake, used the step by step tutorial link above, ripped the dvd and imported it into itunes. It still wont move from itunes to my ipod. Any other ideas??? Ive tried handbrake lite too with the same results. thanks for your help.

Did you get any error message while trying it?

Once the movie is in iTunes… get info and see what kind of video you see there at the pop up menu, 'Movie' is what you really want.

That should work!

Alright i finally got it to work.... i used the tutorial above and it worked.....i think that it was a problem with the picture size cause after resizing it worked perfect. Thanks for all the help!
