If it's just this one movie maybe the file is corrupted.

Update the firmware on the MP3 player itself. Look under "Support" on the Ipod website.

So you converted it to mp4 and you can play other .mp4 movies on your ipod but not this particular one?

Purchase?! Forget that. I will now never ever be buying an ipod. That is a complete ripoff. All other companies give it for free. I just did it on the GF's sansa and it was painless and free. It's thought of as good customer care and standing behind your product. So the lesson is, stay away from apple. Get a zune or something lol

You shouldn't have to pay

http://support.apple.com/downloads/

And there's plenty of free converters out there too.
