The thread you are refering to, was really aimed at the problems of converting videos to a format friendly to iPod.
It assumed that users were already familiar with audio iPod, and, not having used the video iPod myself assume that it is pretty much the same procedure to get the files into iTunes for video and audio.
But, as I assume you are not familiar with audio ipod, I suggest you go to the following link and read LOTRs instructions for the audio ipod, and acquaint yourself with them. My assumption is that loading videos will be a logical extention of the audio method if not the same.

I hope this helps, LOTR is the master at writing step by step instructions, but as yet does not have an Video iPod. Now if we could arrange a quick whip round.........
