Videos
iTunes has a special interface for organizing and playing your video files. Your videos will also be listed in your library and, if you subscribe to any video podcasts, in the Podcasts section.
 |
You can identify video files by a small monitor symbol to the right of the title. |
Highlight Videos in the source column. The Videos window has a special bar at the top of it that allows you to sort your video files and display them in a list or icon format.
List view includes textual information about each track in a series of columns, just like the displays of audio tracks in other sections of iTunes.
Icon view displays the same information about tracks alongside a small icon, usually a still from the video.
Playing Videos
Playing a video in iTunes is much like playing a regular audio track. The play/pause, back, and forward buttons all behave in the usual manner.
When you play a video, it will first appear in the bottom left corner of the iTunes window in the Now Playing area.
 |
When you begin playing a video, an extra button will appear in the lower left corner of the iTunes window. This button enlarges the currently playing video to the full screen. Remember that, at such a large size, the video's resolution may be very poor. |
Videos can also be played in a window separate from the main iTunes interface. Once you've begun playing a file, click on the video in the Now Playing area (the cursor should become a small hand, as if you were hovering over a link). The video will now open in a separate window. The main iTunes controls will still work, but you can also use the progress bar and other controls on the video window itself.
To change the size of the separate video window, simply resize it as you would any other window. As you resize the window, the size of the video will change with it.
