Are the jailbreaks worth it? Untethered or tethered?

Untethered as far as I know and works on mine. But the apps...well that's a different thing altogether. I've just restored, synced the fresh install (with my Wi-Fi settings included) and gonna re-try it now, hoping not to lose half my default apps from the home screen.

Works for me too on the new touch. But the 3G remember it uses older hardware so it's gonna have problems being a bit slow and all, which is ridiculous considering it doesn't get all the features we were lucky enough to get e.g. wallpapers, app switching, Safari auto-fill etc etc so it should run the same, if not better. I still think there's a serious memory leak issue on 4.0.

So do I have to do a restore on my iPod before I do this? And if so how do I do that?

But not only for converting DVDs into MP3 files, imToo has different programs (over 40) that can do virtually everything you ever wished with any kind of multimedia file. Extract the audio from a 3GP video? Convert from FLAC to mp3? Burn MPEG files as a full DVD? Extract single chapters of any DVD as AVI files? **insert whatever function you want here**.......... Everything can be done with a imTOO program, if you know how to: Moreover, all imTOO programs are (:Xmore or less) free!!

Plug in your iPod and on the main menu for the iPod on iTunes, there should be a button with says 'Restore'.

Awh right ok, I'll found out if I actually have to do it lol Does that wipe everything off it then and I have to sync everything back on?

I downloaded a torrent of Muse's Glastorbury show to put on my ipod. Unfortunately, the file was an .avi file and it had no audio when I played it on my Mac. So, I transfered it over to my Windows XP laptop and put it through a program called Any Video Converter and it spit out a .mp4 file with the audio. However, the audio is a bit muffled and distorted when I watch it on my Mac, and it gets progressively more and more out of sync as the show goes on. Uprising is near perfect, but by Knights of Cydonia, the visuals are well behind the audio. The weird thing is, when I watch it on my PC, it's great audio quality and no sync issues at all.

Any ideas on how to make this work?

EDIT: I checked a Coldplay show I ran through the same program (Any Video Converter) and it seems to have the same problem. Spotty audio and out of sync. LAME.

2nd EDIT: Alright, tried it with iSquint, and it worked perfectly.
