From your description of problem I cant really guess what part of your
ipod is malfunctioning, but its certainly not supposed to do that. I
have heard that Apple may have relaxed their returns policy somewhat
for the new ipods, they dont want to create bad publicity by being
nasty with the returns
Someone commented on my blog that they had weird white-screen crashes ...
I've had one white-screen moment but it resolved quickly enough that I discounted it.

Wahey, nice one :) Im glad it was useful info.
The quicktime 7.0.3 ipod export option is certainly much easier, Im
sure the fact the main baseline settings are so obscure contributed
to apple going with a completely seperate export option.
The advantage of using the normal h264 export and then
As I said previously, yes it supports many other mpeg4 and h264 files,
you do have much more choice than just the default ipod export option
in quicktime 7.0.3.
However it does not play absolutely all other flavours of h264 and
mpeg4, theres several ways to make a file that wont work. Theres
What you seek is a HACK. BUT it may very well be that the video
playback requires different hardware inside as well. Time will tell.
i would sell the iPod Photo or color iPod for $199 or $299 to a non-
video interested person (according to size) and be happy to have
video for $100 more.

Can I sit quietly and let such delusions continue without saying
something? Probably not.
Its one thing for you to consider yourself a contender, its quite
another to moan at other people for not considering your output to be
a contender to be used by Apple at this stage.

comes to symbolise all the negative aspects of TV.
