Moving Pictures

An iPod nano cannot play videos.

Wrong!

It can, thanks (yet again) to RockBox. How? Easy!

The plugin needed is already included in RockBox. All you need to do is
  1. Go here and download WinFF
  2. Install WinFF
  3. Download the presets.xml from the RB wiki and put it in the WinFF folder(replacing the old one)
  4. Open WinFF, choose your player and the video file to convert
  5. Drag'n'Drop the converted video on your player
  6. Open the file through the File Browser (make sure you go to Settings>General Settings>File View>Show Files>Supported, I almost gave up on the whole video idea after two hours of trying to figure out where my video went)
You can read everything else there is to know about RB and video here.
