    1) Can you play the videos with both video and audio on iTunes?

    2) the general limits which the iPod carries~

    H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320x240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats.

    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480x480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats

    3) Update your iPod software

    I have the same problem. The videos are single frame and I hear the audio. Something gets corrupted because it video will work fine when I first put it on the ipod. Somewhere down the line the files get corrupted and I get the above problems. Any help..

    Could it be because you have a trial version and you wont get all the video until you purchase the full version?
