Apple now allows VLC Video Player

Wed, 09/22/2010 - 4:46am — Smartmom

Well in a surprising step Apple is now allowing users to use VLC video players with their apple products. If your not familiar with VLC then I can tell you its one of the best video players out there and it supports a multiple different types of videos. VLC is my current default video player on my PC. In the past with Apple you have been limited to what kinda videos you could use on your ipod's, iphone's and ipads so this is a big step for apple users. Basically it means no more converting if you want to watch videos that are not MPEG4 or H264.

ipod Compilation or Custom Playlist?

Mon, 06/14/2010 - 5:05pm — STaRDoGG

So I've just replaced my older 30GB iPod 5th gen with a newer 80GB iPod Classic, and I'm organizing/transferring all of my old stuff plus new stuff onto it. Now, I'm trying to figure out what the real difference is between making a custom playlist of random songs OR setting those songs as a Compilation instead.

Anyone know what the real difference is between the two?
