With the iPod connect to the computer do thevideo show as being on the iPod?
Is it also true you have no photos or songs on the iPod?

Maybe you are just not getting an error message.
What is the source of the movies that you are trying to sync?
What is the detailed format?

See:
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
There are many variations of mp4 format and the iPod, especially your 2G iPod will not play all.
