If you're talking about the DVD player or the VCR, those are toast.
The VCR, maybe, but it won't be the iPod that killed it.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

So far I just see 5 shows listed. They are Lost, Desperate Housewives, Night Stalker, The Suite Life, and That's So Raven.
For both Lost and DH the entire previous season is available for download.
So, nobody owns or has any experience at all with PCs any more? It's all Macs in this thread?
We're all clueless. My thinking is the easiest fix is a cheap USB hub.
I was going to suggest a USB hub, too. But I know fixing it is cheaper than buying something for it. I wish I had PC knowledge.

Yeah, that'd be my first suggestion. I have no experience with invisible ports.
You might try looking for something called "device manager". I'm on a W2K box right now, I don't know where to find it in XP.
Oh, and what is the image quality/resolution of the downloaded shows? The same as the video iPod? (320x240) "VCR-quality"? What's the file size of a 44-minute TV show? And what is the viewing experience like if you watch in iTunes insteaf of on an iPod?
