The iPod Touch has come a long way since the original versions of the iPod. Now, with the availability of the 8gb iPod Touch, there's greater scope for users to store and play a range of multimedia, including audio as well as video.
This device works well as a video player although many new users may be unsure about how to put videos into the iPod Touch. The good news is that putting videos on your iPod Touch is very similar to the process of putting music on it. First, you'll need to gather the range of legal videos that you'll want to install. They could be videos from your own personal collection, videos from your DVDs or videos from the iTunes Store. Next, you'll need to move your videos onto your iTunes software. You can drag and drop the files into iTunes, or you can use the "Add file" command. Videos downloaded from the iTunes Store, however, are automatically placed into your iTunes program.
Then the videos must be converted into MP4 format, if they are not already, and the iTunes program can do this for you. After this, you may then sync the videos onto your iPod Touch, and then you're ready to watch the videos on your iPod at your leisure.
