Ok I got this friend whos got a dvd video of the Beattles actually is mostly Paul. Anyways I was trying to get it on an IPOD using Media Player of course I didnt have a decorder so I download this one. I figured out how to play a video on it. My Question is How do I get the video on the IPOD from this video platform.
Normally when I download music I just sync up the device with my computer and presto. Thankyou.

You might want to start by looking at this article: http://wiki.videolan.org/IPod

You may find the Apple designed complexities a bit interesting. You need to down-sample your video to a size that the iPod accepts (both audio and video). The aforementioned article gives you some ideas about the Apple iPod requirements. Depending on your iPod and the video you may have to change the values and massage the output data.

Good luck
