Ipod classic Help
Well I just got myself an 80G Ipod classic yesterday and started converting my first movie (Bourne Identity) with the windows version of handbreak.
once it had finished i placed it in Itunes and played it to see if it worked...it did but when i transfered it to my ipod it said:
The Bourne Identity could not be transfered to this Ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod.
I am using the settings descirbed in the DVD to Ipod manual on this site and was being encoded at 1000 bitrate.
Is there anyway to fix this?

If you have problems like this, you must post all your settings. There is absolutely zero chance of your problem getting solved without a complete rundown of how you're setting up HB.
And no, saying "I followed some instructions I found" is not good enough. Literally 99.99% of the time an iPod/ATV/etc compatibility problem is because of incorrect settings.
Sorry for the lack of patience, but every day people in here expect us to read their minds. If you want help, you have to give us the resources to help you.

I can guarantee you that the settings I linked to above will work every time. I use them on every movie I rip and have yet to have one fail unless I change something to settings that were above what that page tells you. You can change the setting down (bitrate, video size, 2 pass etc) and it will work fine.nps wrote:I use a MacBook Pro and have the same problem and despite following the instructions for HandBrake, it just does not work...
Make sure you have gone through this sticky. I can almost guarantee you that it is going to be a setting that is not compatible with the 5th gen iPod.
(make sure you have the latest firmware on your 5 gen iPod)

That link- the pictures of what the program looks like is nothing like what mine looks like. I downloaded HandBrake 0.9.0 Windows GUI 2.40, and I could email you a screen capture picture of what mine looks like. But because the display on that site and the one I have are set up so differently, I am lost and don't know what to do. Please help!

On that website (http://www.phoppe.com/HB/movie/movie.html) it talks about how long it takes depending on what kind of computer you have. Does anyone have any suggestions to speed up the process? My computer takes about six hours for one DVD
