I have recently acquired a 5th generation 30gig Video Ipod.
Last night I happily loaded up my Itunes library and Iphoto
library - sweet, no problems.
(although I was surprised to see that the new Ipods dont sync
using Firewire like my old 40Gigger - now it's USB 2.0)
However, I encountered some issues with some video files loading
onto the Ipod.
Some Quicktime movies needed optimizing before they could load
onto the pod, but all of my .WMV movies (that I usually view using
Flip2Mac) couldn't be transferred.
Anyone got any tricks that will allow a .WMV file to be played on
a Video ipod?

If they work in Flip4Mac, you might be able to export them as
quicktime files using Quicktime Pro (I'm not sure whta restrictions
the Flip4mac plugin has on QT Pro).
In my experience, if they work in Flip4Mac, they will save as .mov
files from Quicktime Pro. From there you can process them as you like.
