    Just got a 30gb black ipod video about 3 weeks ago

    it was fine and played videos

    then i tried it today and none of the videos would work

    it would go to a black screen and just stay there

    ok you need to reset your ipod completeley and then put all the stuff back on and that should work.

    Yeah, get the iPod updater from here, then when your iPod is plugged in select restore. This will restore it to factory settings. Then just copy all of your music over again and it should work. If it still doesn't then maybe you've damaged the video decoding chip in it.
