[FFmpeg-user] iPod 640x480

[peace at aleksandrsolzhenitsyn.net]

Can someone explain to me why my iPod can't handle videos at 640x480 
when the spec's for it say it can?

On Apple's website it does say about the display- 320-by-240-pixel 
resolution at 163 pixels per inch.  But, it does say in the spec's it 
can handle 640x480.

Videos at 320 x 240 work perfectly, thanks to all of your help, but for 
whatever reason the 640's don't.

Being that I'm so stupid about this sort of thing I'm sure there's an 
easy explanation.


The spec's for the iPod Classic (160G) are below.
