transcoding to m4a for ipod nano

[Robert Hogan]

Hi there,

The transcoding options for transferring files to a player allow you to 
transcode files 'compatible' with the player. In the case of the ipod nano, 
this appears to be m4a. However, the m4a files created by transkode, while 
they play fine in amarok itself, do not play on my (wife's) ipod nano.

Has anyone else experienced this? Anyone know why they don't work on the ipod? 
My workaround is to transcode (from ogg) to mp3 before transferring, but it 
would be nice to figure out what I need to do to transcode successfully on 
the fly.

Finally, is there a reason you're not allowed to select the format you'd like 
to convert to when transferring to a player?

Robert
