I would have a long journey (about 10 hrs) on train and I wondered how to spend the time, my friend told me that I can watch movies with iPod, so I Googled some newest movies of summer 2009 and also found the way to put these movies on my iPod Touch (not downloaded from iTune, I ripped the movie from DVD disc borrowed from my friend). I listed the movies below and also the way to play DVD movie on iPod/iPhone.

Most anticipated movies of summer 2009

Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen

Starring: Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox

Director: Michael Bay

Release Date: 26th June 2009

The return of the franchise that one particular car company loves. The fact that Michael Bay himself plotted out the story for this one during the writers' strike is a cause for concern - Expect the usual ridiculously hot women with unlikely academic knowledge, and overweight African-Americans used for comic relief. While you would think Megatron and Starscream are getting the 'revenge' mentioned in the title, rumour has it that the 'Fallen' are actually a third set of robots, who the Decepticons and Autobots have to team up to destroy. We will see?

Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Starring: Ray Romano, Queen Latifah, Dennis Leary

Director: Carlos Saldanha

Release Date: 1st July 2009

The following article focuses on different channels of listening to music on iPod and iPhone. To enjoy music on iPod and iPhone, you first need to get the music in iPod/iPhone format onto iTunes library and then sync the music to your iPod/iPhone.

Channel 1. Buy music from iTunes Store for iPod/iPhone

To find and buy music from the iTunes Store, just click on the "iTunes Store" link under "Store" in the left column of iTunes. Once in, you're greeted with the iTunes Store interface, with links on the left-hand side that take you to Music, Movies, TV Shows, Music Videos, Audiobooks, and Podcasts. After you've chosen a song or album to buy, just click on the "Buy Song" or "Buy Album" button for that selection.

Channel 2. Import your CDs into iTunes for iPod/iPhone

If you own a few CDs, you can import them into iTunes for your iPod/iPhone. Since you've already spent money on this music, there's no reason why you should have to buy it all over again just to get the songs into iTunes. Apple made it simple to rip a CD to your library.

By default, iTunes rips songs to AAC format, and although AAC is a very high-quality format, it isn't as widely-supported as the ubiquitous MP3 format, which enjoys support from virtually every digital music player known to man, including iPod and iPhone. To ensure greater portability of your music (and prevent you from feeling locked into one product just because you've ripped all your music in one format), I suggest ripping your CDs as MP3s. To do so, go to Edit -> Preferences. In the General tab, click the Import Settings... button. In the pop up dialog window of Import Settings, select MP3 Encoder from the Import Using dropdown menu and Higher Quality (192 kbps) from the Setting dropdown.

3. How to watch iPod Video on large screen TV

4. How to download youtube video to iPod Touch/Nano/Classic/Video for free

5. How to download limewire video to iPod Touch/Nano/Classic/Video

Part1. Watch PDF or E-book on iPod Touch/Nano/Classic/Video

iPod cannot directly display PDF files, you have to convert your PDF file or electronic book to*.txt format, and make sure the file size is smaller than 4KB, and then copy the *txt file to the “Note” folder ion your iPod. Here are the detailed steps:

1. Enable your iPod as a portable hard drive, plug in your iPod to computer and run iTunes, in the summary tab, check the option named “enable iPod disk mode”


2. Download and install iGadget, it can convert and cut your files to 4kb .txt files. Here is the download link:

3. Connect your iPod to computer, open “My Computer”, open the iPod drive (the new drive with your iPod name), and copy the txt file to the “Note” folder, done. Then you can read the text file on iPod note.

The new Kindle program for the iPhone and iPod touch is almost as good as the Kindle itself, a device from Amazon dedicated to reading electronic books. But Kindle for iPhone is by no means the only e-book reader, and not necessarily the best.

Here is a video about this app http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13549_7-10188891-30.html

Another free program, Stanza by Lexcycle, seems easier to use. With Kindle for the iPhone, even after you've downloaded Amazon's e-reader to the phone, you still need to go to Amazon's Web site to buy books from Kindle's creator.

In contrast, Stanza offers easy-to-download titles from within the program's list of merchants, including the Fictionwise Book Store (just purchased by Barnes & Noble), BooksOnBoard eBook Shop, Random House and Harlequin's free libraries, as well as free books from Feedbooks.

Part2. Rip DVD and convert video to iPod Touch/Nano/Classic/Video

iPod can only play MP4 and H.264 video, but DVD movie is MPEG-2 video and CSS protected, so you need an application to rip DVD to iPod MP4 and convert video to MP4 video, then sync it to iPod via iTunes. I recommend an program called Aimersoft iPod Converter Suite, it include a DVD to iPod Converter and a Video to iPod Converter which can rip protected DVD and convert limewire, youtube and other video formats (AVI, MPEG, WMV, MOV, FLV, XviD, etc) to iPod. And I often use the free iPod manager to transfer video bettwen iTunes and ipod.

Part3. How to watch iPod Video on large screen TV

Set up your iPod video options. On your iPod choose Videos -> Video Settings from the main menu. You will see three options: TV Out, TV Signal and Widescreen. Select the “TV Out” option.

Get your A/V cable. If you don't have an eighth-inch-to-RCA cable, you can pick one up on eBay for five or six bucks shipped. Search for "camcorder A/V cable." Remember, you want a three-plug yellow/red/white RCA connection at one end and a three-banded eighth-inch (3.5mm) A/V plug at the other.

1. Plug the red RCA plug into your TV's yellow RCA jack.

2. Plug the yellow RCA plug into your TV's white RCA jack.

3. Plug the white RCA plug into your TV's red RCA jack.

After making these connections, you're physically ready to begin playback.

Part4. Download youtube video to iPod for free (HQ Video)

iPod can play only MP4 and H.264 video, youtube video is stream video (.flv), so you need special software to capture the stream video to MP4 video, and then sync it to your iPod via iTunes.

1. With free online Youtube Downloader HD: .http://keephd.com when you find your favorite youtube video, just copy the video URL (like this format http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=je2MFXDr7xw ) to the "Youtube URL" box, click "Download Video", choose the output format (FLV Low Quality, 3gp Mobile, MP4 High Quality, High Definition 720p), and then click "Download Video" again.

2. With Free Programs

1.Free Youtube downloader HD

2.Free YouTube Downloader

These two tools both support HQ Youtube download, and you can also use the video to ipod converter I recommended to convert the youtube video to the format for your iPod.

Part5. Download limewire video to iPod Touch/Nano/Classic/Video

For more free music and videos you can download from free source P2P program limewire, it's a file sharing program which users can share their music, videos or programs on it, the basic version is totally free.

You can refer to this guide to learn how to download limewire video and transfer it to iPod with iTunes by steps.
