Q: how to put dvds in ipod video
A: Best Answer - Chosen by ketchupman4

yeah you can
as long as you got the 5th generation iPod video.
first you gotta get a dvd to iPod converter, I recommend you try or buy the intervideo iVideoToGo (( http://www.intervideo.com/ivideotogo... )) this is
very reliable. but on the free trial, it takes a while to convert an hour and half movie; longer if its like LOTR: return of the king. and it might freeze up on you, just press ctrl + alt + delete to unfreeze it. it only cost about 20 dollars. plus it only takes you to convert the DVD in 3 easy steps: 1. find the dvd file 2. find a destination folder 3. convert as mpeg4 file and press CONVERT (the little button on the bottom right-corner) by the way, the dvd
has to be an mpeg4 file and in quicktime version. so the file will read "[title of movie].mov"
that's why you need a converter for the DVD you can't just import the dvd to the ipod. that violates the copyright of the DVD.

second: once you convert it. put the file into a folder where it can be easily found. then go to your iTunes (if you don't have it yet, get it at http://www.apple.com/iTunes ) and go to file > import file > select the movie file > and click ok to import file.

there you have it. you got a movie to watch. enjoy it with a bowl of popcorn.

Answer 2

you can download movies from the following-
-video.google.com
-www.youtube.com
-www.funtoosh.com

you can also download movies from download clients like limewire, emule, shareaza
the best among them is emule 0.47c
get it at -www.download.com
- www.emule-project.net

to get them on itunes,
go to file>import OR file>add files to my library
import the file you wish to
the video/song will, by default, appear in the main library of itunes
classify it in the playlist you wish to
