    I have an ipod video that when I play a movie it will paly for a few seconds then pause then play again but with no sound. If I fast forward it will then again play with sound but only for a few seconds then it mutes again. Any Ideas?

    Is your iPod software 1.1.1?

    What kind of response is that? I am having the same problem, what is causing the problem? Does it have to be 1.1.1 or is that what the problem is?

    no, but the 1.1 ipod firmware version has alot of problems with playing videos. I keep hearing that 1.1 version is very unstable, especially for the video iPods. I would suggest either downgrading to the 1.0 firmware version (From what I hear, it is the most stable) or you can just download a new version from apple.com

    Here is a link for many Ipod updaters: http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369

    Sorry, I dont know what one is 1.0, but if you google it or somthing, I sure you will find it. Or maybe lethal B knows the link.

    Good luck though!

    I would suggest that you guys update your iPod Firmware to version 1.1.1 to stop this problem, since there are no known bugs with it yet.

    Use the iPod Updater to do this: http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/

    @Jazo

    I thought that the 1.1.1 firmware versio was the one that had all of the problems? Is 1.1 the same as 1.1.1?

    Just wondering

    No mate, the 1.1 is the faulty one, and the 1.1.1 is the fairly new one released from apple that has all the little bugs fixed. ;-)

    Oh, thanks alot! I was allways geting mixed up. But is 1.0 the version that is still "the most stable"?

    Not really. I think that they are both equally as stable at this point. I would go with the 1.1.1 updater as this one is the most current one and has no problems at all. http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/

    1.0 is better. It has proven to be stable, and, although 1.1.1 doesn't have any major issues, it's response time (at least in my case) is poor. I provided a link in the above FAQ to v1.0 if anyone is interested.
