The iPod video is known as the last generation of iPods, which surprised the market and the sales since its appearance. Basically, this new device is able to play videos. If this seems like fun, the technical part might need some guidance.

Firstly, you should know that both the PSP and iPod can play H.264 / MPEG-4 encoded videos with AAC audio tracks. Due to this fact, the resolution is rather limited, together with the limitation of the bit rates that you can use on the device. For the new iPod video, this limits means (for the H.264 video) up to up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240 and 30 frames per second. For the MPEG-4 video, the limits are up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480 and the same 30 frames per second. Even more, the AAC audio bit rate is around 160 Kbps. After establishing these limits, the next step is to establish the source of the video, which can be either from a DVD or a video of the computer.

In other terms, the company Apple claims, in a purely informative ad which is posted on the official website, that the new iPod, as they call the new iPod video, can store 15, 000 songs, 25, 000 photos and not less than 150 hours of video.

If wanting to get a video from a DVD, then the first thing you should do is to insert the DVD in the device. After this, you should open (in case it doesn’t immediately open by itself) the DVD, using file and open DVD from the menu. Check the options in the DVD menu, to set up everything as you like, meaning language, subtitles or chapters. Begin playing the movie, using the DVD menu to navigate. When the movie begins, you should press the record button and select the folder in which you want to store the recorded files. When you want to end the recording, simply click the stop button and if the recording goes well, there will be a screen confirmation that you have converted your file successfully.

If you wish to convert a video from your computer to your iPod video, then the first thing that you should do is go to the menu file and click open video file. After this, your video is supposed to begin to play, the perfect moment to adjust the video as you like. Also, you can set the perfect moment to start the recording, using the bottom playback controls. When you decided this, click the button record and feel free to stop it at any time. After recording, just like in the case of importing videos from a DVD device, there will be a message on the screen saying that everything went on successfully.

If respecting these basic rules, the videos and movies will be stored carefully in your iPod and you will be free to watch them, at any time. Still, be aware of the fact that the iPod offers limited space and resolution, which means that you should be picky when deciding what to keep and what to delete. The new iPod video is a challenging and innovative product that combines music with images, offering, for the first time, the possibility of playing video on such a small digital device.

The new iPod video has a wide range of new qualities and among these, the most important is, without any doubt, the video feature. Due to the fact that the market already had a small and portable device which basically played games, but also played videos, the new iPod video was released with some suspicions of the critics. The video iPod is hardly the first portable video player on the market, as the device belonging to Sony claims to be the number 1 portable video player in the world, but it is principally used to play video games. Even so, the sales of this new product turned out to be surprisingly high, a fact which was obvious shortly after the first semester.
The main concern regarding the product was the fact that due to the small screen, the people willing to watch a serious movie on it would be limited. In fact, studies show that most people prefer to feel the actual movie, while watching it in front of a big screen, like the one in the movie theatres. Even more, the new cell phone with a video feature which was so famous in
Asia was used for watching movies only for a few minutes, considering the fact that it had a small screen which couldn’t allow catching all the quality details of the movie. The critics even mentioned the fact that, while being on a bus, in a cab or waiting in line at some office, the video iPod with its tiny screen might be a good solution, after all. This is due to the fact that this activity is considered a great snack or a great break. Based on this, the analysts mentioned that if Apple wanted to really hit the market, they should opt for an iPod with a bigger screen, so that customers would be eager to watch even the long movies on this device.
Another aspect which was highly debated was the fact that the battery life of this new device lasts less than expected. While the play station portable has a battery which lasts up to 8 hours while watching a movie, the iPod video only provides 2 hours of battery life, which is a big disturbance, when trying to watch a full length movie on this small digital device. Another
thing that the critics attacked was the fact that the iPod takes too long time to download various movies. If for the play station portable, this task is doable in less than 3 hours, while the QuickTime 7 Pro took almost 12 hours to encode the video in an iPod-friendly format.
The sales of the new iPod video show the fact that the public accepts and wants this new product with a lot of interest, due to the fact that it can play music, store pictures and play movies at the same time, a fact which makes it a multifunctional device. Even if the new item received many criticism, the shirt-pocket-size new video iPod, seems to be one of the most
preferred objects of the teens of today, as they use it to store and listen to thousands of music and other audio files downloaded straight from the Internet or from DVD’s, cameras and from the computer files.

As far as marketing of iPod is concerned it is very good in spite of no research made in the market for the customers needs and requirements.  It is basically sold to people who are mostly teenagers or the people who are very busy and travel a lot. The negative advertising has been done by people who have criticized the easy scratch surface, and the screen vulnerability to name a few. For iPod Nano model is the all time favorites in the market which the online store of Amazon shows.

The Nano being the smallest is the most popular and the sales are more than expected and most of the stores outsell their popular model. It may be due to high storage capacity, video features and reasonable price. Till now Nano has been more appreciated by MP3 player. That is the main reason for the high sale of Nano.

The other main thing which will result in high sales will be no competition as the iPod Nano does not have any competitors which match their technology. Also they are good for people who like to not miss their favorite TV shows. People who do not want to miss the TV series such as “Lost” and ‘Desperate Housewives’ has contributed to the success and great sales of the new edition of iPod.

The iTunes music stores also contributed to the sales of iPod. Here you can store you can buy episodes of famous TV series. Music videos or pictures. The handheld video device and the special store for it - is a great achievement.

Besides, the iPod is the best selling music online store and it will probably be the best music video online store. The sales may also rise due to the new available TV series or TV shows of the famous TV channels. Since the iPod is the best seller in the United States, and the most successful music player, it is easy to see that the iPod will have high sales. The prices were lower as the lower-cost players were introduced
on the market in the last years, but the nano edition has increased the prices. With the new iPod video the price has been pushed beyond the average selling price.

Most of the stores in United States see 100 iPods nano every minute may be surprising and 14 million were sold in the first quarter of the fiscal year 2006 are very good. The sales f iPod will definitely rise throughout the world as the popularity increases.

This model Nano has doubled the sale sof the company Apple. You can attribute the increased sale to new video feature, long battery life, and extra memory space for more music. TV shows and episodes and lot of photo saving in photo album. These aspects and others (games, possibility of checking the e-mail, possibility of finding out the time in other cities and other useful features) suit very well the contemporary lifestyle.

The technology of iPod in the market has been since their appearance since 2001. Listening to music and watching the video has changed and has become one of the favorite activities of any individual. The constant evolution of the device is an important aspect of iPod with the new features, accessories and capacities.

Comparing the iPod video with the TV 27 FPS or the movies 24 FPS, it is obvious that the small device it is much better.
Regarding the audio qualities, comparing to a CD quality, the iPod video is superior. On the other hand, the MPEG-4 video supports a bit rate of 2,500 kilobits per second and pictures as big as 480 pixels wide by 480 pixels high, meaning three times the size of the actual screen (in comparison with the H.264 video, which supports pictures the same size as the screen pf the iPod).
The market reviews are excellent and the quality of the images is great and has perfect colors even when it is connected to an outside device like a TV to watch the video. The battery power lasts longer and it actually works for 20 hours, which is an feat in itself since the last iPod model, while watching movies or videos the battery may not last that long.

The Apple Ipod since has been introduced in the market has come up with the new design and new advertisements, out of which some are fake and the other authentic. The people were not at all ready for a video Ipod and therefore there were many advertisements which appeared on the internet and were like a teasers for the real product. The Ipod itself was an invention which was well received by the people but a video attached to it was a very new thing and hence the advertisement were very unique in their shape and design.

Since the product was not yet introduced and not yet in the market people had to do with the teasers of the shape and design which they thought would be. The teasers on the internet were just for fifteen seconds and showed the devise in computerized manner which made people more curious as to the product.

The internet advertisement showed the music video and the rhythm was very good and the people listening to the Ipod video were dancing in the car and then the slogan was displayed showing the new hand held video.

The advertisement was focused on the screen of the Ipod video which was shown as very big but like other Ipods the screen is over the buttons. The many advertisement viewed by the people the world over many few were authentic. The Apple people wanted to show to the people that the music can be seen and heard and they have double fun of watching and listening to the video.

age groups. The manufacturers and the wholesellers managed to rope in some artist for the advertisements which symbolizes the different generations. The iPod`s video ads show that the product has definitely evolved, has a more mature image and optimized new features.
