iPod Help with Ipod Video

[Gutfree]

Recently I've put several videos on my iPod, but I'm facing a problem. The video works fine, but there is no accompanying sound. How can I fix this?

Is there sound if you watch the video on your computer? I've had a similar problem...

 

[Gutfree]

Yes, the video's sound works on my computer.

What format are they? I've found that converting MPEG-1 or 2 videos using QuickTime or iTunes will result in a loss of sound.

 

[Gutfree]

They are MPEGs. Is there any way that I can stop this?

I'll assume they are not from the iTunes Store.

Did you rip them from a DVD or acquire it somwhere else?

 

[Gutfree]

Somewhere else. They are clips, not a full episode of a show or a movie.

I believe that iSquint can convert them successfully. The preferred format for the 640x480 iPods is "optimise for TV" with H.264 turned on.
