convert videos for iphone/ipod

to load videos on your iphone or ipod, the video must have the right format.

since video-converting under linux is not that trivial, mvPod is a gread solution to bypass this especially for iphone and ipod.

installation is easy, follow the guide.

after converting the vid, you can load your movies and videos on your portable apple device.

iphone 3gs, itunes 8, linux, vmware (xp)

yee, my iphone's here.

to register it, itunes is needed. didn't get it quickly to work with wine, so i tried with vmware xp.
installing itunes in my guest xp was no problem. but plugging my iphone and enabeling it in vmware resulted in a fancy bluescreen. yay!

searching the web gave me the solution:

Success came when I enabled the XP image for USB 2.0 by adding the following lines to the VMX file:

ehci.present = "TRUE"
ehci.pciSlotNumber = "19"

OLE!
