Oh yeah, playing through the truck speakers drove my wife nuts. Not something I would want to do often, but worked fine for the trip, especially since the iPod was plugged into power. I did this with a couple of series episodes for a road trip a while back. I have to manually set the rip to NTSC 29.XX to get smooth playback. NOTE: there is a bug in the latest version of Handbrake, if the DVD doesn't used 3:2 pulldown (which handbrake assumes it does) you'll get a 23.whatever framerate. If on a Mac,MacTheRipper -> Title or Title Set extraction, then encode for iPod with something else.Handbrake -> select the Title you want from the menu(you'll need to know the duration of the episode you want) and simply set the criteria listed previously in this thread. Originally posted by YodaNT:Not sure if this has been asked, but what's the best way to rip stuff that is broken up by episode from a DVD to be played on your iPod? ![]() You may also use a width of 320 for iPod-only playback, and encoding much faster than h.264 A maximum width of 720 may be used if your movie aspect is 2.35:1, or 640 if it is 16:9. The preset uses 480 width mpeg-4 video and AAC audio, and It encodes a feature movie into about 500MB. Added "iPod for TV" preset for super-fast video encoding for the video iPod, optimized for playback on TV in high resolution, through the audio/video output of the iPod. It encodes a feature movie into about 200MB. The preset uses 320 width H.264 video and AAC audio. If anyone is interested, ffmpegx released 0.9u, which now has a preset for iPod H.264 that works like a charm.Their promise of faster H.264 encoding seems to be true as well - it just screams on my PowerMac.quote: Added "iPod h.264" preset for super-fast (up to 7 times faster than other methods) video encoding for the video iPod. The HD material would probably be uncompressed 10-bit, maybe DVCPRO HD, maybe even H.264.If anybody has done any experimenting with this kind of workflow, please let me know - I will be much appreciative! ![]() The goal would be to preserve the quality of the source HD material as best as possible, while also preserving the 16:9 aspect ratio so no data is lost, and material is squished. Same goes for if you are watching videos on the iPod that are 16:9 that are smaller resolutions than the iPod's screen.Is video refitted to fit the physical screen? Are parts of the video frame ever not displayed on the iPod's screen (cut off)? How is wide-format material displayed on the non-16:9 screen? Black bars?The scenario is, I am wondering what the best way is to encode HD-sourced material (both 720p and 1080i) for playback on the iPod, both its built-in screen, and then output via composite to an NTSC monitor. I am curious about how the new iPod plays 16:9 content on its screen, when you are encoding at resolutions that surpass the pixel resolution of its built-in screen.
