How to Play Videos on a Monochrome iPod Mini

Requirements:

• Monochrome iPod with Rockbox firmware installed

• Computer

• Video file (240p or lower)

• FFmpeg or a Video Converter website

• FFmpeg or a Video Resolution Changer website

How to:

1. Downscale the video:

Once you obtain the video file, you have to downscale its resolution, so it can fit on the small iPod screen. (In my case it's an iPod Mini so video resolution must be set to 138 x 110 pixels).

You can use FFmpeg or any online video resolution changer to do that.

2. Convert to .MPG:

The file must now be converted to .MPG so Rockbox can play it. Use FFmpeg or any other online video converter.

Voilà! Just place the .MPG into the iPod directory and play it through the Rockbox files menu! 

Hope it's been useful :)
