System Info:
New 24" iMac (Fall 2007)
New 160GB Black iPod Classic
8GB iPhone

I have tons of old music videos that I'd like to play on my ipod. I have them in iTunes, but they do not sync when I connect my new iPod classic. I found out that they are .mpg format, so I right clicked on them and selected "convert to ipod/iphone". iTunes converted it, but the resulting file had no sound. What am I doing wrong, because I tried several different files and had the same result.
