Any time I try to watch a video the sound plays but the screen just displays a picture...no video whatsoever. Any ideas?

what codec are the videos? Sometimes incompatible, or barely compatible, codecs get screwy like that

huh, they're itunes vids, eh? I would restart the ipod, then if that doesn't work do a factory restore and put the videos back on after that...that's probably the first thing an Apple store person will tell you to do.

Go into video settings on your iPod and find "TV Out" and make sure it is off. The setting you have it on is for hooking your iPod up to watch it on the tv.

You should also make sure you are starting the videos from the Videos section on the iPod. Playing a video from the Music section or the Playlist sections will only get you the audio.
