Hiya
I need some help with adding videos to the ipod, I dont know how to do it, so does anyone have a useful guide sheet or something on how to do it?
also can you add normal DVD's to it, as I have Bad Girls the Musical that I want to try and put on there but when I put it in my laptop, it will only play it doesnt let me view the folder to copy to my laptop
I hope this makes sense

This site may be of use to you, if only for the information on it. It has a free download option but I believe you have to pay for the full version. Take a look so you understand what you need to do, then use google to find the program you want to use to do it.

dont worry it says iPhone, its the same format.

To add videos, they need to be in the mpeg4 format. If you have mpeg4 videos on your laptop, then just open iTunes, click file and then add file to library.

When you have done that, go to your iPod touch where it shows up in iTunes, and go to the videos tab and choose which ones you want to synch.

To convert existing videos, and rip dvds into file format, I'd use Handbrake (free)
http://handbrake.fr/

This can convert files for you, and has a Touch preset.

To rip dvds, you need an extra program
http://www.dvd43.com/

If you install this and run it just before you open Handbrake, you'll be able to rip any dvd you want.
