Copying DVD audio files to Ipod!
I have searched but cannot find this particular situation discussed. I have non-copyright 60 year old Old time radio programs on DVD Audio discs. I am talking hundreds. As a newbie I expected them to be displayed in Itunes to be copied in the usual way. I should have known it would be different. I can copy them direct from disc to Itunes and listen, but there appears to be no way to copy them to my Ipod that is obvious to a newbie.
I expect the solution to obvious to everyone else or impossible anyhow!!

if you dragged the files from the disc to the iTunes interface and they appear in iTunes... then when you plug in your iPod, assuming you have enough space in it, they should just sync. up...
is that not appening?
Outside chance that that might have been a punishiment for not doing something the right way. I doubt it but did not want to mess up again.
I will follow your suggestion, thank you. I did do some searches but saw nothing to inspire confidence ( at my level).
hope it is useful to u!
You should be able to use MPEG Streamclip or FFMPEGX (check versiontracker.com) to reencode them as MP3s or AACs. However, if there are more than 2 channels, you might run into a problem (doubtful for a radio show).
