How are you normally transferring new videos to your Apple iPod Video player ? You create or download them, transcode them into a format that your iPod video understands, add them to iTunes and sync iTunes with your iPod Video again. What if there was a way to automate every single step of this procedure after creating or downloading new videos ? Yeah, I thought that you would like that. To automatically add new videos to your iPod Video you need the free iPod software Ipodifier. Just download iPodifier which has a size of about 8 megabytes and install it on your system.
A wizard pops up the first time you start iPodifier that walks you through the process of configuring the software to be able to immediately use it. You select a directory for all your converted movies that can be played by your iPod Video and choose if those videos should be automatically added to iTunes and synchronized to your iPod video as well. After configuring several other settings such as cpu priority for transcoding the videos and the option to schedule them you can select a source directory that should be observed from now on.
It is again important to use the wizard to configure this step as well by providing information about the source files, select the iPod video codec, the video quality and video size the selected videos will be automatically transcoded and transferred to iTunes. This is by far the best solution that I have tested for this process.
It is also possible to combine iPodifier with DVR software that you might be using such as TiVo, SageTV, BeyondTv or Windows Media Center Edition. Great tool for everyone who owns an Apple iPod Video.
