New Post: MCEBuddy video files won't import to iPod Nano via iTunes

Hi,
I am running MCEBuddy 2.3.13 and the latest version of iTunes (11.1.3.8) with a 5th Gen iPod Nano. I have tried the MCEBuddy MP4, iPhone, M4V, and Zune profiles and have a problem with all of them.

Videos get converted properly with MCEBuddy and I can import and play them via iTunes 11. When I go to the iPod sync section and choose the video and "Apply," it doesn't do the normal adding video message. It just says finishing sync and nothing gets imported to my iPod. If I then have iTunes format the video for iPods/iPhones and import the video to my iPod, it goes through successfully. If I compare the stats for both videos, it looks like the main differences are in the bit rates but it's hard to believe that would cause the issue.

Up until now I have used MC-TVConverter (apologies) and never had a problem importing the videos to my iPod, but now I need a program like yours that can manage all the conversions for me overnight. I am guessing the problem is with video containers or the like.

GSpot reveals the following info:
NON-Importing Video (MCEBuddy)
isom: MP4 Base Media v1 [IS0 14496-12:2003]

• iso2: MP4 Base Media v2 [ISO 14496-12:2005]
• avc1: MP4 Base w/ AVC ext [ISO 14496-12:2005]
• mp41: MP4 v1 [ISO 14496-1:ch13]
  

Importing Video (MC-TVConverter - different source video file)
mp42: MP4 v2 [ISO 14496-14]

• isom: MP4 Base Media v1 [IS0 14496-12:2003]
• avc1: MP4 Base w/ AVC ext [ISO 14496-12:2005]
  

Importing Video (iTunes modded MCEBuddy)
M4V : Apple iTunes Video (.M4V) Video

• M4A : Apple iTunes AAC-LC (.M4A) Audio
• mp42: MP4 v2 [ISO 14496-14]
• isom: MP4 Base Media v1 [IS0 14496-12:2003]
  

Could it have something to do with "mp42: MP4 v2" (MC-TVConverter) vs. "mp41: MP4 v1" (MCEBuddy)? I know there is a profiles.conf in my User folder so is it just a matter of editing that somehow or would MCEBuddy not be able to work with my iPod do you think?

Thanks in advance!
