Do all ipods suck?

03-06-2007, 03:15 AM

I have 3 video ipods and not one will play a video. One the screen is fucked up, one is asking to be restored and mine only plays music with no video....

I keep resetting and restoring the one. Nothing justs asks to be restored. These things need more attention then a dog.

I don't want to jinx myself, so I'm not going to comment on how mine works.

I think they are great yet fucking rubbish. You know what my biggest wish for them is? To have a simple on/off switch. That seemingly simple concept appears to have been totally overlooked on the ipod video.

you hold the play/pause button down for 3 seconds.

It occrus to me that the only reason we do not all switch to these things, is it is so easy to buy a cd and put it in and hit play.

Are you re-encoding the videos with iTunes first? The videos have to be converted to the h.263 format. Make sure they play fine on your computer first, I've found iTunes doesnt always convert the videos properly, depending on the source format.

My iPod works just fine, I mainly just use it for its tv-out capabilites

I have an original 20gig ipod .. my wife had a Mini and i just bought her a Nano. the mini was the only one that has had problems ( that's why she got the Nano)

For movies i think the PSP is the best .. I put Music / Pics / Movies and play games on it .. nothing beats it when traveling. but for the gym or something you need the small MP3 player

Yeah thats all very well but you only have to accidentally brush the pad thing or fart near mine and it switches back on. Seriously, in all the years of development of electronic goods a simple on/off switch which cuts out the power has always done the job.

All of the music and videos came from itunes. It used to work, it just doesn't anymore. Actually of the three this is the best one as it still plays music at least. I am not the most gentle guy and this thing travels in the bottom of my bag. I have never had a cell phone crap out. i use the Razor and they are pretty fragile or so i have heard. These things are really just crap.

2.4 months is more of my average. Why do i always feel better when others have the same problem? It does nto solve my issue but i quit worrying that it is me.

Well, iPods are a bit different... they have actual hard drives inside them, with spinning platters and everything. Need to be more gentle with those than you do a phone, with solid state flash memory. If you have a Nano or the Shuffle, you can throw those around pretty good, because they are flash memory as well.

Its like carrying around the hard drive in your PC with you... they aren't gonna last long very long if they get bumped around too much.

I had mine for almost 3 years now and it still has 6 hours of battery life, at least, and works perfectly....I am in the 1% I guess, because all my friends have issues with theirs

I just got a 30gb Zune and I was an ipod fan until this thing....amazing features on this thing that is for sure...I am sold and no longer an ipod fan

My son's ipod broke within six months, stopped playing through one side of the headset, which I see by the Internet is a common problem and they refused to fix it under warranty saying he must have broken it with a heavy blow. Bull. I hate ipods.
