I have a couple of ripped movies. They are now MP4 and imported into my iTunes library. They won't go into my iPod for some reason. I just bought an AV cable to watch movies I buy, from Apple store I presume, on my TV. It's been great fun to play with and those work fine on the iPod. They are all MP4 in my library so why can't I put the ones I ripped on my iPod Classic, iTouch, or iPhone? I might add I own the movies but I wanted to be able to carry the movies to watch while I am waiting in doctor's offices. I sure don't want to buy them again from Apple. The movies aren't that good. <g> terry http://www.terryanddave.com/Terry "My idea of pure heaven is to spend a day in the kitchen, peeling, chopping, and stirring while the words of a good book fill the air around me."
