1 Can I try the trial version before I make a purchase?
Of course you can. iPod-Cloner's trial version can make one full conversion for free.

2 Can iPod-Cloner convert protected DVDs to MP4?
Sure.

3 How long does it take to convert a DVD movie?
Converting time may vary with your computer performance, DVD ROM performance, film size, video resolution, etc. Generally speaking, 40 minutes to one and a half hours is enough for a conversion.



4 Will there be any image difference between the output video and the original?
The standard DVD resolution is higher than that of iPod, of course there will be a little quality loss. But the difference is too little to tell.

5 How high and how wide do I set to the output files?
Generally speaking, 320×240 for iPod is enough. If you want to connect your iPod to TV and play movies on TV, then 640×480 is OK.

6 What’s the difference between h264, xvid and MPeg4? Are they supported by iPod?
H264 and Xvid are two kinds of mpeg4. iPod supports all of them and their output effects are more or less the same.

7 How to transport the output files to my iPod?
iPod-Cloner can transport video files from PC to iPod directly. You needn't install iTunes or other software.
If no iPod is connected to your PC, the iPod icon on the operating interface will be gray.



If an iPod is connected to PC, the icon will be activated. You may click it to select “directly transport video files to ipod after conversion”. If you select it, the icon will turn blue, otherwise it'll be light blue.

 and 

The transporting time depends on the file size.

Note: You need to close the automatic synchronization function of iTunes and select “enable disk use" (you can find it in the summary page after starting iTunes).Otherwise the output files can not be put into your iPod.

2. Open the "Advanced" window to set the Video Bitrate to 1500
