I'm not sure you'd want to -- the image quality would be almost unwatchable on a TV screen.
We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What's the quality like if you hook the iPod itself up to a TV?

Trust my rage
Jessica, I had heard that, but it looks really good on our huge TV. We've been playing it on the Powerbook and hooking that up via S-video. It works okay, but it's a lot of cables.
No iPod video here so we haven't tried ita's suggestion.

I don't have a video iPod, but the size of the clips is just barely a quarter of broadcast resolution.
[eta: Huh. That must be one hell of a codec they're using, then.]

Yeah, we tried it because we were dying to see BSG before it begins again and we were pleasantly surprised.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The screen size of a video iPod is 320x240, more or less the quality of VHS.

HiddenSky, I used your comcast address as my referrer. I hope that was right.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
are the ipod video files something proprietary? Can't you burn them on to DVD media like you'd burn anything else?
I like my new DVD player than can read avi (etc) files that are just stored on the DVD.

Argh. Stupid anonymous LJ posters. Someone posted a comment that I seriously didn't appreciate, anonymously, in my journal (and not some random porn or christian shopping or anything). I had IP tracking on, so I plugged that into a whois thing and found out they're from Cavalier Telephone (which is basically only in Virginia), so now I'm totally going "who is it? WHO IS IT?" thinking of anyone and everyone I know who might be posting from Virginia and pissy at me. Harumph.
(Edit: Needless to say, I've turned off anonymous posting for a while)

Ann, that's a ferret.

Can't help you find the culprit, meara. We don't have Cavalier.
I've heard their ads mostly in the Fredericksburg area, if that helps.
