Ipod Video Question (30Gigger)

OK, so ive been trying to help my computer illiterate friend try and put stuff on her new ipod, but since ive never used an ipod before, it took me a few minutes to learn. So far ive easily figured out how to put pics and music on, but the video is p!ssing me off.

I went to apple, and they said to put home videos/non-downloaded videos on it, i need Quicktime pro to convert the videos to the Ipods supported format. Well, im not going to let them milk her for more money (ie, paying for quicktime pro), so does anyone have a similar, or even easier program that will convert regular .wmv's or .mpegs to Ipod's supported video format (for free)???



thanks
 
I use Videora to put them in iPod format and DVDshrink to rip dvds, its easy but the encoding with Videora takes some time to complete.

QFT!! It took me 1 1/2 hrs to convert Kingdom of Heaven

Good thing it was mine and not a rental. 😛
 
Just an update


Nothing has worked yet......it keeps saying the movies i converted arent supported Ipod formats (they at least show up in the library now, but they play just like a music track/ no video)
 
i use pspvideo9 for mine. it works great. jsut make shure that what ever program you are using you are not going over 768Kbps for h264 with 320x240 resolution or it will not play.
 
I find video ipod video conversation easier on a Mac. On the PC, I use quicktime pro. I got no problem converting QT movie trailers on Apple.com to video ipod format.

Well DUH...EVERYTHING is easier on a Mac.
 
Got it to work, but it was with software that costs $$ but allowed free trials (cant remember the name)


as i think i said, trying to do this without paying money, but the software i used worked so well i think i might have her buy it
