pinkeye Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Just bought an iPod and in the process of uploading some of my CD collection into it. Is there any way of getting the album cover to copy into the directory as well so that when I list the albums it shows the cover as well as the artist and title? Cheers.

Right click on the song and press "Get album art cover" or something similar. You'll need an iTunes account though IIRC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkeye Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Can you upload DVD into an iPod in the same, or similar, way to how you upload CD's? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesPaul Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Can you upload DVD into an iPod in the same, or similar, way to how you upload CD's? You'll need to d/l sperate software. I used to have some but git rid of it because I wated the 120 GB of memory for music and movie. I'm sure someone could recomend a software program Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Handbrake is what I use for ripping DVDs, not sure if it's only for Mac though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkeye Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Now that sounds complicated, hopefully someone can give me the idiots guide to doing this.......... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrenchWilliam Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Dunno about ripping DVDs, but I usually use Red Kawaa for converting video files I've downloaded to ipod format. Free, quick and easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Now that sounds complicated, hopefully someone can give me the idiots guide to doing this.......... It's not too bad, you choose the DVD chapters you want to put on your computer and the format you want it in (e.g. MP4, medium quality). Then you go away for a LONG TIME while it does the business. Then you have files on your computer that you can import into iTunes and fill in the details (show, series etc). Some DVDs don't seem to work, must be something to do with copy protection I guess.

pinkeye Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I may sound thick but, could you explain that a bit clearer for me being a bit of a novice at all this technology stuff: Start with putting the DVD in my computer and take me from that point onwards please?

I would recommend Handbrake, but sure there are loads of others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download and install Videora iPod Converter 2. Put your disc in your computer 3. Open Videora 4. Chose which iPod you've got from the menu 5. In Videora, in the left menu, under "convert", press DVD From there, there's a guide in Videora how you should progress. It should be pretty straightforward.

pinkeye Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Just stumbled through using Videora and managed to rip and convert a movie, it takes ages and is a little complicated to set up but, I can now do it so very happy. Cheers all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Yeah, it takes a long time, but is unfortunately the only way to do it. Would recommend putting a few files on queue before you go to work or something like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 The new iPod touch sticks with tradition by matching the specs of the latest iPhone and stripping out the call connectivity in exchange for an even slimmer shell. And it looks set to be a good trade off: the new iPod touch packs a 5MP camera with HD video, a front-facing camera for FaceTime and iOS 4.1 straight out of the box.
