Wow, thank you Esther, I will definitely check this out and load it on
my Nano. Come to think of it, I believe the Nano gets much less time
when playing videos, maybe it's only a couple of hours, but it'll be
worth it. :) Well ok, could just play it on the machine of course. I
am curious and will have to ask my wife how the video looks on the
little screen.

Hi Scott and Others,
Just to followup on my post about iTunes U podcasts and the
descriptiive video service episode for President Roosevelt:
downloads from iTunes U don't show up under podcasts. A folder gets
created under playlists. In the case of the American Experience
podcasts, this will be named after the authoring institution, WGBH.
The individual (video) episodes show up under Movies in your Library.
Scott, since some of your earlier iTunes questions have been about
organizing jazz tracks, you might be interested in the program that
was announced as: "Celebrating the Legacy of Louis Armstrong on
iTunes U" that showed up on the Apple Hot News RSS feed last week.
I'm going to paste in the description and link:

At the centennial of his birth, the Artistry of “Pops”: Louis
Armstrong at 100 celebrates the legacy of “the man whose name is
synonymous with jazz music.” The program, courtesy of Columbia
University’s Center for Jazz Studies offers historic clips of “Pops”
and a discussion about Armstrong’s contribution to jazz and American
culture by musician and jazz critic Stanley Crouch and trumpet
legend Wynton Marsalis.

I don't know the size of the this video podcast, but please note
that the videos at iTunes U can be large -- part 1 of the FDR dvs
episode is 414 MB and runs to 1.7 hours. Part 2 is even longer at
2.3 hours, and there are (multi-part) episodes for five other
presidents. The Louis Armstrong video is 1.5 hours long.
Cheers,
Esther
