iPod touch Question about coverflow for video

[electricrenaiss]

Does coverflow work for your list of videos or is it a feature solely for music?

It only works for music.

That sucks!

I'm seriously thinking about the iPod touch, just need to way the decision about the amount of music and videos I have against the products space capacity.
But that's not what I was posting about...

I have a few questions about the way and how you browse the video media on the iPod touch (people will know for the iPhone).

1) Are Movies, TV Shows, Music Videos all displayed in one list type structure, or can you select the 'area' you're wanting much like in iTunes?

2) If you have a "full" TV series (space dependent)... how is it displayed? Every single episode listed in order, or is it like music? You get the artwork you touch it and it spins to reveal the list of episodes within that show?

3) Can you browse through your videos in coverflow... just like music (would have thought yes for this as videos have to be played in landscape, so why not browse in landscape coverflow).
eg... If there were sections (movies, tv, ect) all your movie posters will be displayed - touch the movie and it will start. Then the same with TV Shows, the Series CoverArts are displayed... touch the show you want, it flips to reveal the episodes and touch again to play.

Does that make sense? That's how I want to browse (ie TOUCH) my media.

If it doesn't do this, am I the only one who would like it to be like that? How would/could Apple do this, if there are people wanting to really touch their media?

Obviously since posting this a few days ago, i have actually decided to go ahead and but the iPod Touch... though I'm still not happy that I can't Touch my movies and videos! Just hope Apple and fix this with an update.

I think that is the best idea becuase what if you are showing off the Touch to a friend and you are just playing short clips from random videos, having to flip it around and select a video then flip it back over and over again isn't the sport that I want to play.

Yes but it would be cool if you have a list (short or long) of videos that you can put your own artwork on and flip thru that in coverflow. I mean you can do that currently for music, why not movies? I would love to have a list of movies with poster art and flip thru that coverflow style.

Golly, Apple will be busy with all these things people are expecting them to 'fix in an update'!
