ok guys here is the scoop.. I just downloaded handbrake and I ripped star wars 3 to my MBP last night.. Took about 2 1/2 hrs to do.. I did it in MP4 format.. I watched it in itunes and it looks great.. But for some reason it won't let me put it on my ipod touch.. I go to move it and it won't transfer.. Am I doing something wrong..

you gotta convert it with the iphone/ipod touch presets

click the little button in the top right hand corner and itll give you a list of presets, just choose the iphone/ipod touch one and when its done encoding, drop it in your movies folder in itunes, from there you can put it on your ipod

Ok guys here is what I found out the problem is. When I click on the iphone and ipod touch it changes some settings.. Well there is one setting that I had to change and that one was the setting that was under frame rate. I had to change it from (Same as source) to 29.97 NTSC video.. And now it works fine.. I've tried every other setting and this is the only setting that works..
