In the interest of delivering fast and reliable downloads, our titles are currently available in Portable Video Format only (320x240 pixels).

There are two media types to choose from:

  • mp4 (H.264 encoding) - optimized for iPod and iTunes.
  • wmv (Windows Media) - optimized for PC playback and any portable PlaysforSure device.

Which format should I choose?
For iPod, use the mp4 format (regardless of whether you are running iTunes on a Mac or PC).
mp4 files are optimized for iPod and will also play flawlessly on stand-alone Mac systems and laptops.
mp4 files will also play on stand-alone PC systems and laptops with
Quicktime installed, but we have found that audio and video are slightly out of sync on some systems. It is not an optimal file format for playback on a PC (although it will play fine once transfered to your iPod).

For this reason, wmv (Windows Media) is also offered.
Use this format if the media is to play on a Windows PC or laptop.
wmv files will not play on an iPod.   wmv files are designed to play on any portable PlaysforSure device.
