Are you encoding your own lossless files? Are you running Apple software or Rockbox? I know that if you run Apple you must be using M4A and the iPod will not like a lot of files if encoded at a sample rate of 48,000 and will try and skip them. You need to use 44,100 which is CD quality. iTunes...

I have only worked with 5g and 5.5g video iPods so I can't say what will or will not work with any of the classic models.

Actually the only one I really like is the 2000mah. The 1300mah is OK but I am going to buy a few from some different suppliers and see if I can find out who has a better one as I do not think what I have is anywhere near 1300mah, probably 900mah to 1000mah max.

I doubt any of the batteries are what they say they are but I have no way to confirm they are not. I do know that the one I ordered that was listed as 1300mah does have more battery life than the smaller mah varieties I have tried. I do know the flat batteries claiming to be 2000mah run for a...

For 256gb I would do an sdxc card as it costs less and uses less power. They are also more user friendly. I haven't done the ssd version yet but I believe you can do a 2000mah battery with them while you can not with an sdxc (adapter is too thick) however the sdxc should still have similar or...

You might be fine as there is that black foam gasket around the window or at least there is supposed to be one. If dust does eventually get on there you can take it apart and clean it off easy enough. I won't know if it is a problem with the aluminum version until I see for myself.

I want both. Either is easy to do but I haven't found the right parts to do both yet. Maybe it isn't possible with the adapters out there now. It looked like the adapter I had was going to work until it started song skipping.

Did you buy a plastic version of the classic front? I almost bought one on accident from eBay but I noticed the description said it was plastic and kept looking. I plan on modding an aluminum one to get it to fit a video frame. It looks easy enough and I have a lot of tools for cutting and...

I see the ridge you are referring to. The OEM ones are not all that flat either. The ridge you are referring to is a result of shrinkage when the part is molded as the plastic is thicker in that area. The picture frame you can see in the light is a result of the same thing and is present in the...

Wow. Just wow. I feel like such a noob. I tore off the protective layers when I first got them. I took another look and sure enough there was a second one that was on the plastic before it was machined so it had no overlap and was not as obvious. I guess the good thing is I have some extra...

I bet your back will be just fine. Every place I have ordered a back from including the custom ones have been all good for me and some even come with screws and the frame around the dock connector. It is when you order the fronts that the quality is all over the place from what I have seen. I...

I am planning on doing an msata version now and am thinking of using a samsung drive. I read that the 840 evo works but has anyone tried the newer 850 evo series? The 500gb version costs less on one but the 1tb version costs less on the other version, at least on amazon anyway.

You must have missed the part about the 2000mah battery.
