How come videos on my iPod Video won't work even though they work on my iTunes?

Question

Yes, they are all mp4. When I play it on my iPod Video it only shows a picture of the first second of the video and it just plays the sound. On another video it just shows black. ;[ What is wrong with my videos?!!

Answer 1

My guess... reboot your iPod through your itunes to reload your iPod's operating software. If its not that, it's the physical hardware.

Good luck.

Answer 2

Not all mp4 will work in ipod that work in iTunes. Try use "convert selection for ipod" to convert those problem mp4 again and resync. it to you ipod and see the result.
