Is there any way to convert an itunes purchased (Mpeg4) video to "some format" so that I can burn it to a Dvd which can be played on a Dvd player (TV)?
thanks

Yes you can do this, i have done it alot of times, cause the small size will fit on a standard dvdr easy. but beware the quality will be alittle grainy because your streching a file that is suppose to be viewable on a vpod to your screen size.. id suggest hooking your ipod up to your tv with the av cables you can buy for like 20 bucks.
 
it says "unsuported file format" it I try to open it or drop it into IDVD.
Any suggestion?
. . . and I don't have a ipod video :)
 
You can burn CDs from proceted music files but not DVDs from procted videos??
 
From Apple's FAQ:

How do I burn my purchased videos to CD or DVD?

You can burn back up copies of iTunes videos to a data CD or DVD. However, you cannot burn iTunes videos to a DVD for playback on your home entertainment DVD player.
