hi all- im trying to copy non protective dvds to my video ipod. i open the copy disc box,and find the sourse,which is the dvd. the destination cant find my ipod to copy to. am i doing anything wrong?

This is not the correct forum for your question. You don't even state what program you are trying to use.

i apologize. ive never used roxio message boards before. im using roxio easy dvd copy 2, with a windows xp mediacenter.

I am having the same issue. There is very little documentation on the ipod, and it is advertised as a primary feature of DVD Copy 2. Should I see the device, or the drive letter for the disk access on the destination?

I am very disappointed with my $50 purchase. This capability was oversold on the site.

Easy DVD Copy 2 Deluxe/Premier includes the Disc Copier component of Easy Media Creator 8. Posts for this would be most appropriate in there.

Without having it in front of me right now, a brief overview of the steps are as follows:
1) Launch Disc Copier (Start --> Programs --> Roxio Program Name.....)
2) Click on the video compilation tab in Disc Copier and be taken to that screen
3) Add your source video to the source area using the "add movies" button
4) On the destination area on the right, change the "Output to:" selection to File/Folder (unless there is a portable device selection) and choose the appropriate format in the pulldown list.

You should be able to go from there, choose your options, and "burn" the file which once completed can be added to your iTunes library and synced to your iPod.

thanks for the help- still doesnt help. i ended up buying a program from pinnacle.sold at best buy for 29 bux.easy to use. ill still use roxio for disc copying though.
