Help putting a DVD movie on an IPOD VIDEO

[killamike]

For the last 4 days i have been trying to put movies on my ipod video. I have had no luck and am about to throw my ipod in the trash seeing as the video aspect was the mane feature that attracted me to get it yet i cant get it to frikken work. I have tried programs such as DVD Shrink, DVD Decrypter and DVDx. I have been using these guides [/url]http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/guides.html and http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/14/how-to-convert-a-dvd-for-your-ipod-with-video-in-windows/[url] When i make an image i use IFO. Is this why its not working? I tried ISO but i dont know jack about DVD ripping/converting. Whats the difference between IFO and ISO?

After i ripped and made the image i use Videora and convert it to the Mpeg-4. When it gets to 100% it doesnt say complete and the time remaing becomes negative which is weird. Then im only able to abort or Exit the program. Finally i go the the videoras video folder to get the the converted movie but when i click it i get, "Error -2048:this files is not a movie?" I cant even put it into Itunes. Why is this? What am i doing wrong? Do i need some other program? Please i really need this figured out.
Thank You

Try this program called #1 dvd Ripper. It will rip to a VCD file which is good enough for a small Ipod screen. The resulting file would be less than 1 gig I assume. I think Mpeg 4 is overkill for that size screen, and the file would take over the Ipod.

iPods don't support VCD, only MPEG-4.

Thanks, I have a Vosonoic x-drive (which is much better than a Ipod) and I just assumed it would take VCD. Anyway, I have discovered that the Mpeg 4 rip is actully smaller than the VCD. I'm ripping a movie now to test it out.
