Ipod Touch Question

ViperVX · October 31st, 2009, 7:18 PM

Just got myself a new 32gb touch 3rd gen, got a question.

How do i add a folder with video (or a video playlist) inside the thing, rather than having everything inside one Video 'folder', accessible from the main screen?

If i simply copy (drag) video files to the "Movies" directory in iTunes, it just puts everything in one giant video folder. It also allows to add video files to music playlists, but on the phone, they of course appear in Music -> playlists, rather than Video.

Basically i have a number of tv-shows and movies on my pc that i want to store on Ipod, all in proper format and so on, but there's no point in it unless everything is properly stored in separate folders or something like that.

I think that when you have a TV show in iTunes, what you do is you right-click, get info, and you set the name of the TV show, season, etc. That way, when the video is transferred to your iPod, it will be grouped according the show and what not. Think of it as what you do with your music, only with video files. Hope that helps.
