ipod 5 wont charge with new cable

The old cable of my iPod 5 broke, so when I got a new one(couple of weeks after it broke) it wont charge anymore. The first time I plugged it in with the new cable my iPod started up and charging, but when I swiped right on the home screen it turned off, then I could see that "battery low you need to charge before using" screen. Waited for about an hour but it wont start up just black screen. Tried to turn it on with the power button and home button but it doesn't react in any way, and my computer won't recognize the device at all.


The new cable is "Scanpart" "Apple Lighting Kabel". I think it's an official one.


Any ideas? Thanks for help.

iPod touch, iOS 7.1.2
