And you know this, man

I ripped the movie Friday to an iPod compatible file using HandBrake and Sara and I watched the first half of it on the tv connected to the iPod. Unlike the home movie that I tried before I could see no compression artifacts. It looked pristine to me. HandBrake must do a very good job of encoding. I couldn't tell the difference between it and watching a DVD (on my 27" tv). Now I can carry my entire music collection and 40 DVDs in my pocket.

I want one so bad. But I think I'll end up getting a Nano just because of the price. I'd like to see for myself though what a movie looks like played through the iPod.

I changed domain registrars today, so the gallery was down for a while. It's working now.

How did you hook up the iPod to the TV? Does the headphone jack do video output?

Yes, this page explains how to do it without paying for Apple's special cable.
