In their 'It's only rock and roll' event, Apple officially announced the fifth generation nano, the Apple iPod nano 5G. The new iPod nano, now rocking a video camera, a polished anodized aluminum finish, and a larger screen and also making its debut - FM radio with Live Pause - is still a terrific multimedia device for watching DVD movies, TV shows and videos.
The new iPod nano accepts MPEG-4 format, so you just need an iPod nano converter that will go from DVD to MP4 if you want to watch DVD movies and TV shows on your iPod nano. After you get the output iPod nano compatible video files, you can drag them to your iPod nano 5G with the sync of iTunes 9. Below is the step by step guide that shows you how to convert DVD to iTunes for iPod nano 5G with Cucusoft DVD to iPod Converter:
