If you have an iPod with a video player and would like to load it up with additional movies, the movies have to be converted into the MPEG 4 file format that is recognized by iPod. Some movie download websites have iPod ready movies that have already been converted. Movies that are not converted can be done so by downloading a free files conversion software program.

Most popular video conversion software programs available on the internet can handle this for you. These programs convert file formats from WMV, MOV, VOB, MPEG, AVI and other popular files formats used by many movies. Some programs are free of charge while premium programs require payment.

It is never enough to convert a movie for your iPod. Ipod systems use a 640 by 480 screen resolution and therefore, the movies you convert should also match the same resolution. If the resolution does not match, the picture quality will look awfully distorted.

Some people seem to be okay with a slight distortion and the iPod system does have a little bit of leeway, but not a lot. If you have a movie that you really want to enjoy on your iPod system, it is always better to use a screen resolution of 640 by 480. This is the same resolution that all iPod ready movies come in.

If you want to convert home movies and videos, Apple has a program called QuickTime 7 Pro that you can use. This program seamlessly converts home movies and videos into an iPod format for perfect picture viewing. This is a wonderful way to store home movies of friends and family for viewing when you are away.

The process of transferring home movies is very simple. Once you download the program, just launch the program on your computer. You should already have the home video transferred to your computer or laptop. After launching QuickTime 7 Pro, click the corresponding title of the movie that you want to convert in the menu.

Once everything is in place, you just have to launch QuickTime 7 Pro and click on the title of the home video that you want to transfer. The process is very simple and only takes a few minutes of your time. This program will allow you to transfer all of your precious home videos and keepsakes.

Once the conversion is complete for your home movie, you will be required to synchronize the movie on your computer with the iPod software before it can be transferred to your iPod. The synchronization process works the same way with home videos as it does with storing songs on your iPod.
