Yeah I have one and there is a way to put any videos you want on there. The videos have to be converted to work on there so I downloaded this program called videora. It just converts any videos that you have on your computer to whatever they need to be to work on the ipod video and then you just put them on there like your putting on a song and they play perfect and have excellent quality.

I didn't buy it just because of the video. I had been saving up for an ipod and thats what they were selling when I bought it. I dont really ever use the video its just kind of cool to have it.

i would be all over that video. imagine the possibilities...put it this way, you know that sweet little clicker wheel? it wouldn't be able to move it'd be so sticky.

Hey i bought mine a few days ago, just woundering how long your battery life is when watching movies. Mine is about 1.5 hours tops and i have a feeling that i have a faulty battery because if when listening to music its twenty, you would expect that video would be atleast 5.

My battery life doesnt last very long when I'm watching videos either. I read on some site that the battery meter is off a little bit it drains itself down until you have broken in the ipod. I dont really know if thats true but on mine the more I use it the better the battery life is.

thanks for the info. i bought mine the other day and put some vids on using videora, thanks MLwakeskate, but i might need to take mine back cuz the battery isnt lasting long. I know that its only supposed to last like a hour and a half to two hours for videos but im just talking about when i use it for music. Anyways creative vision--- junk. Ipod video----sick.

I thought that with my battery life when i first got it but the more you use it the better it gets it seems.
