Q: I've downloaded a whole season of SD TV shows onto my computer, but they won't go onto my iPod classic

For some reason, they are not syncing at all. They're all in SD format and I can play them on my computer. Help!

 

Thanks

iPod classic, Other OS

    What are the file formats of the files?

     

    iTunes can read, write and convert between MP3, AIFF, WAV, MPEG-4, AAC and Apple Lossless (.m4a). iTunes can also play any audio files that QuickTime can play (as well as some video formats), including Protected AAC files from the iTunes Store and Audible.com audio books.

    Thate what I want to know. Does it say what format iTunes has downloaded them as?  Surely if it was bought from the iTunes Store it should be able to be played on one of their devices?
