^^^I have also the 60gig and my works just fine, it might stop sometimes but only for a second or two, and i never had problems with the audio.

Re: iPod Help - DVD & Movies to iVideo

does it convert videos with black bars on the top / bottom? What is the default resolution to burn it at? I haven't mucked with it as much and dont know what to burn it at.

I'm looking for one that maximizes the screen real estate.
