Okay, I just downloaded a video (.mp4) off Frostwire. It is 4 Minutes by Madonna, not that that matters lol.

Anyway, when I goto sync it to my iPod Touch, I get this error:

What does that mean? It's an MP4 file, but i'm not sure what's wrong.
Anyone know?

Thanks,
André.

This has come up with me before, and I'm guessing you downloaded it not from iTunes?

If you didn't download from iTunes download a different track then copy into iTunes and make sure it gets changed to their format :)

^^^ Wrong.

Download Vidora (or something) iPod movie comverter, you need to convert the file to an iPod compatible file (like .mp4 or something)

Try .m4v also it may be encoded in the wrong bitrate or something as the iPod Touch, and all iPods do have limits.

Put it through a converter, to convert it to a readable iPod file (to change bitrate or w/e) and it still won't add...

As it's already been imported into itunes just right click the movie file and choose "Convert selection for iPod/iPhone". It will sync fine then. The MP4 file you have has certain attributes that would make it unplayable on the touch.

Thanks for the help Josh, but i click convert and when i click "Sync" it says "Converting movie" for a second and then I get the error message once the sync is finished.
