transcoding on transfer (iPod Touch)

titchard · 30 Dec 2008 at 17:12

Hi!

On my shuffle, when I transfer my lossless tracks, I have the option to transcode to a more travel friendly 128KBPS on transfer - now for Christmas I was lucky to receive an iPod Touch, but this option seems to have disappeared.

Is there anyway I can enable this feature for the iPod touch? Would be great if I could!

Thank you in advance!

Hmmm appears that it is only an iPod Shuffle option - it's a shame really as I reckon my entire collection would fit onto my iPod Touch in 128KBPS.

No one know of a solution? I don't want to have to transcode my entire collection.

I've never ever seen it on anything other than the Shuffle Hindy!

Nothing in iTunes Preferences?

Nope, scoured them my friend! Gutted if I can't!

Will possibly fire off an email to the Apple mothership if I can't get it sorted!

This is not available on the touch, only the shuffle.

Pity as it would be very handy.

I am going to have a look around at other apps to transcode my music to give me a bit of space for some videos.

Just as a guessed - oh well, it's a pity - looks like I might have to transcode my collection then!

Thanks all the posters in the thread for any help
