Watching Videos on a TV Connected to iPod touch
You can connect iPod touch to your TV and watch your videos on the larger screen.
Use the Apple Component AV Cable, Apple Composite AV Cable, or other iPod touch
compatible cable. You can also use these cables with the Apple Universal Dock,
available separately, to connect iPod touch to your TV. (The Apple Universal Dock
includes a remote, which allows you to control playback from a distance.) Apple cables
and docks are available for purchase at www.apple.com/ipodstore.
Video Settings
Video settings let you set where to resume playing videos that you previously started,
turn closed captioning on or off, turn widescreen on or off, and set the TV signal to
NTSC or PAL. See page 80.
Set Video settings
m Choose Settings > Video.
Deleting Videos from iPod touch
You can delete videos directly from iPod touch to save space.
Delete a video
m In the Videos list, swipe left or right over the video, then tap Delete.
When you delete a video (not including rented movies) from iPod touch, it isn’t deleted
from your iTunes library and you can sync the video back to iPod touch later. If you
don’t want to sync the video back to iPod touch, set iTunes to not sync the video
(see page 6).
If you delete a rented movie from iPod touch, it is deleted permanently and can’t be
transferred back to your computer.
Setting a Sleep Timer
You can set iPod touch to stop playing music or videos after a period of time.
m From the Home screen choose Clock > Timer, then flick to set the number of hours and
minutes. Tap When Timer Ends and choose Sleep iPod, tap Set, then tap Start to start
the timer.
When the timer ends, iPod touch stops playing music or video, closes any other open
application, and then locks itself.
