Video Fast Forward Bug?

Problem turning off ipod

i own a black 30GB that i purchased on the online store because they hadn't hit canadian stores at that point. i just tested everything on my ipod with a 45min episode of friends and it works fine.

i usually click the center button and scroll through the time like you do when you FF a song or add stars. this is faster than holding the skip key. my screen didn't black out and after a short delay, the video jumped and started playing as usual. this worked even when skipping 20+ minutes.

holding the skip key also worked the same although the FF rate was much slower.

the ony issue was turning my ipod off afterwards. there was a lot of battery drained and holding the play/pause key to shut off was unresponsive. i tried playing a song and then pausing and shutting off but that wasn't working either.

i eventually went back to the main menu after about 45 seconds and managed to shut off from there.

hope this helps.

Hi Jing. I have encountered the problem of not being able to turn off my ipod video several times. Is this normal or it just happens when you've done lots of things with your ipod? Other times theres no problem at all turning off my ipod.

Anyone eles who has come across this problem?

I have a 2.5 hour video transcoded with 3G at 768K MP4. I was skipping long commercial breaks using scan and FF methods. At about the 2 hour mark, skipping the commercials resulted in freezes and reboots consistently. Another transcode at 600K AVC of the same video had no skipping problems at all. I plan to try a transcode at 512K MP4 tonight to see if the problem is purely an MP4 issue.

I have a 30 GB video ipod and.......

- When I play a long clip, (about 20 min or more) and it ends, it shows the apple icon for about 10 seconds before going back to the menu, is this normal??
- Also, sometimes it shows the apple icon before the video is even over, and even when I try to fast forward (press center button, and then scrolling), which is extremely annoying.
- I have converted videos using the program Jodix Free Ipod Converter....

Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

I am glad I am not the only one with this problem! When I fast forward, I either get kicked out of the video entirely, or when I am finished fast forwarding the video simply jumps back to where it left off. It's very frustrating!
