HOW TO - Creating Video for iPod

Apple posted a HOW TO on getting videos on a new video iPod - With QuickTime 7 Pro, you can create your own videos that will play on the new iPod. Already have great home movies you want to play on your iPod? No problem. QuickTime 7 Pro helps you easily convert them to a format that iPod understands. Just follow these easy instructions and you'll be watching your own video on your iPod in no time. Link.

Looking on the Quicktime import format list, I don't see .tivo files (TiVo ToGo). However, since they are just wrapped .mpeg files, does Quicktime recognize them? I suppose the DRM could just be stripped, but I'd like to keep things both simple and honest; taking shows I've legitimately recorded and putting them on my iPod.

This probably isn't the forum for a in-depth technical discussion on the subject, but I thought Make readers might also be interested in getting their already recorded TV shows in their new video iPods.

Thank you for the useful info.
I think 'Wondershare iPod Video Suite' is also a good choice. You may download for a trial. Here is a detailed guideo about this software.
