View Full Version : DVD to iPod with Chapters - Position Resume

Hello,

I was hoping someone could answer a couple of questions for me -

The first one is whether or not the iPod can remember the position a movie converted was stopped, so that when it is resumed or played again, the movie can begin to play from the last stopped position. I assume this is something that has to do with the iPod itself, but since it can do it for podcasts, I was wondering if it might be related to encoding.

My second question has to do with converting using CloneDVD Mobile. I have tried the trial version and can't find a away of encoding a DVD along with chapters marks within the file, to allow me to skip to the next chapter when viewing a movie with the iPod. If this is possible, it would ease the pain of the previous problem.

I have tried a couple of programs, but can't seem to find one that can do it.

BTW, I have a gen 5.5 iPod video.

TIA

I do not have a I-Pod but I do have a creative Zen Vsion W and the full version of clone DVD mobile and to save space I assume you can not include chapters when using clone DVD mobile. My Visiom W will resume where I left off when playing a movie unless I open a different movie then it will loose its place. I hope this helps

The iPod remembers the playbackposition for movies & tv just fine. I don't know of any software that adds chapters, but you can add your own with quicktime by following this guide : http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/chaptertracks.html
