Default Quick Ipod Touch Question....
What video formats does it support? I have lots of AVI files that i would like to put on it, tv-series each episode being about 350mb in size, will they work right away? Or will i have to convert it to mp4's? if so, how on earth do i go about doing that?

Thanks!

You will need to convert to .mp4... it's very easy to do and there are alot of programs around that will do it - a quick google search will give you alot of options.

best of luck to you though1

I second that. Found it the other day just after I opened my iPhone and found out that iTunes wasn't converting them with sound very well. Its pretty quick too, and not too much quality is lost.

The only thing i find annoying is the single file at a time. You can't batch convert a directory using the same encoder settings across the board. You have to process each file individually, though it does have a queue you can add files to.

I use the power mode, configure the settings, then queue up half a dozen files - hit go and leave it.

I do that as well, i'm not waiting for each file to finish before selecting the next file, I'll queue up a few and walk away too. What I think would be nice is the ability to just drag an entire directory and have it use the same settings for all files without individually entering files into the queue.
