Have some music videos putting on new Ipad 2, but not blown away. I hoped they would be clearer. They look pixelated and grainy. Are there higher rez videos I should be downloading??
 
What resolution are the videos? You need o download some HD videos otherwise it will look grainy.
 
the best video will be the same res as the display (1024x768) DVD's are gonna be a little under (though if they're full quality, not iTunes downloads or internet downloads/streaming they should still look good) at 720x480 and 720p is just a bit bigger at 1280x720 (bigger is better than smaller)

anything smaller than 1024x768 isn't gonna look as good stretched to the ipad screen.

Apple Techs suggested using an encode setting of 640x480, 29.97fps @1240Kbps h264 3.1 for 4:3 & 640x360 for 16:9
