CatchMeIfYouCan631 Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I don't know if this is a problem everyone has or its simply how my settings are... but i put some music videos on my iPod. the list goes as follows: "Like Toy Soldiers" by Eminem "Lollipop" by Lil' Wayne "Welcome to Detroit City" by Trick Trick "You Don't Know" by Eminem the problem is it only reconizes "Like Toy Soldiers". Before I put that one on it only reconized "Lollipop". For the other ones it says at the bottom "No Name No Title" and i only get a black screen...but all their artist names are "Music Videos" and they have the same settings. It's like it only reconizes the video at the top of the list. Anyone have an idea? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HiFiSi Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 You remember that topic I posted about the NO NAME NO TITLE info not clearing off the screen? This is exactly what happened. I go through the menus and select one of the videos to watch, and click it to play it. But it seems like nothing happens, just a black screen. Then, I touch the screen so the play controls come up, and hit the play button, then hit the hide button to hide the controls (I don't know if this actually does anything or not, but since the video's not playing, I guess I've gotta do something, right?). Now, just WAIT. The video will start playing, but not immediately. It seems to take a minute or more before it starts up when there is more than a small amount of video data on the ipod..

HiFiSi Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 It skips to the next chapter in the movie when I hit forward or back. I don't know what it does if the movie isn't broken up because all my movies are DVD rips so they have chapters in them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HiFiSi Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Like I said, I don't know. But even if it doesn't skip forward to the next movie, it's easy enough to just hit menu to take you back to select a different movie. Not that big of a deal, really. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigPHIL18 Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I have the same problem... My fix... choose the video you want to watch. The video will be black screen if its not number one. Use your pioneer button and push the knob left for back... it will then play and show Artist and Title. Hope i explained that clearly enough. It seems instant too... on full movies as well. No waiting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
