Downloading DVD's to Ipod

[eskimo]

They need to be in Mpeg4 format to be viewable on a ipod, otherwise they will just store as data.

search for a converter, I think I use Isquint but if you have a PC you might have to find something compatible.

Or just use handbrake. Just do a google search for "ipod handbrake".

These guys have several converters that format video to MPEG4 IPOD.

I haven't used them to convert straight from dvd before, but works well with taking full size mpegs and formatting to IPOD screen size, takes a 1 gig movie and makes it a 115k movie, to allow several to fit on the IPOD. I checked their site and it looks like they have dvd type converters also. Good Luck...
