iPod anyone with pc and an 5G ipod video?

[Jagsfan6116]

If anyone could help me out. I have a dell ( i know I know my dad has all the say in the computers we have) and I am going to get a 5G 30 gig ipod video for x-mas. I need to know which programs will let me convert video files to the one that I need for the ipod. I also would like to know how to get all the album art? I would also like to know the programs I need to go from dvd to ipod. If someone could help me over aim or msn messenger I would appreciate it, or just post here. my messenger sn's are AIM- Jagsfan6116 and MSN- RickyPiatt@hotmail.com


Thanks

I recommend the combo of DVD Decrypter (find that one yourself) and Nero Recode 6.6 (http://www.nero.com) as a great user firendly way of taking DVD to iPod compatible MPEG-4. Just stay within the bandwidth and resulotion limits and turn on the quictime compatibility flag.

For album art I tend to use Tag & Rename http://www.softpointer.com and iAlbumArt (http://ialbumart.ipod-sync.com) which is less accurate, but enables a good quick first pass scan of your library.

Part of Nero 6. Just point it at the output of your DVD Decrypter.

This is one of the best resources I've found for video conversion.
