bouche Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 After missing Malcolm in the Middle since October, I used www.mininova.org to download about 7 episodes. I had a thought that I might be able to put those on my iPod Video and then hook it up to our TV with my iPod dock, which has an sVideo out and audio out. I had to download the DivX and Xvid codecs and I was able to convert AVI's to iPOD compatible video using Quicktime, although I may be able to do that in iTunes with the latest update. After doing that, I sent an episode to the ipod and plugged everything into the TV. It worked great! The video was completely fine to watch and the audio was perfect.

FairySari Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Is there any way to get an ordinary ipod photo to play video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted January 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Is there any way to get an ordinary ipod photo to play video?Probably not in the traditional sense. I think you'd have to hack it, put on a flavour of Linux and then you can play HalfLife, Doom II, and probably play videos as well. here's a link to some great FoodTV shows, PBS Documentaries and many other non-traditional torrents.

Alexis Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 i'm trying to find a movie i saw on discovery channel or a channel like tht a few weeks ago called celestial voyage. it was fucking amazing. it looked at time, the smallest thing in the world, a quark, and how far into the universe we can see, i'm totally not doing it justice. it's narrated by not lawrence fishbourne, not samuel l jackson, but that other older black guy....the guy in i think seven...anyways....i'm trying to find that, and if you come across it, i STRONGLY suggest you watch it. take some psychadelic drugs first perhaps, if they're at hand.

Alexis Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 that was the show title i believe. i don't know the show nova....but at the beginning it has celestial voyage, no nova stuff. i thought it was a movie or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoMack Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 What is the ending for the IPOD compatible video? Not AVI I take it?I have been wanting to convert Phil from Vegas but can't figure it out. In fact, I haven't figured out how to put any video on the Pod.
