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!
Thanks to both of you!
Anyone use Skype? Thoughts?
Hmm. Guess I'll just wait and deauthorize if it becomes a problem.
I'll try out Senuti--have you used it, Daniel?
Oh, weird. Hooked up my iPod prior to trying senuti, and iTunes actually said "you have purchased music on your ipod that's not on itunes, do you want to move it to itunes?" and DID IT! Yay. I may have had other stuff that wasn't backed up, but those were the things I really wanted or knew about...

Yeah, that's a new feature.

I have. It worked well for me, to get all of my nephew's old music from the iPod he gave me into my own iTunes.

So, Handbrake does seem pretty straightforward to use. But 25 minutes to encode an 8 minute video? Yowch. The tutorial on iPodLounge did warn that it would probably take a very very long time, but wowza. It's going to take all day to encode Beetlejuice, drat it.
Yeah, video encoding in general is really slow.
