We've previously released two guides to help Mac owners learn how to transform video content into iPod-ready formats. Now we've put together a collection of tips - spread across this article's Parts 0 and 1 on DVD ripping, and a second article's Parts 2 and 3 on conversion and iTunes/iPod transferring to help PC users do the same. Since there are many different programs that can convert iPod videos, we recommend that you keep things simple as a beginner - learn the basics first, then branch out to the more technical aspects. The resolution and bit rate of the video files you can use on the iPod are limited to the technical specifications put out by Apple, discussed in this earlier article.

EphPod is a full-featured, easy-to-use Windows application that connects with Apple's iPod. With a FireWire card and EphPod on a PC, it takes under 30 minutes to transfer 1,000 songs to an iPod. In addition, EphPod supports standard WinAmp (.M3U) playlists, includes powerful playlist creation features, and will synchronize an entire music collection with one click. It imports Microsoft Outlook contacts, in addition to allowing users to create and edit their own contacts. EphPod can also download the latest news, weather, e-books, and movie listings to an iPod.
