A great program to use is called HandBrake. It’s available for all operating systems, doesn’t take hardly anything to run, and is really easy to use. It even has presets for iPods. You can find it

Just download the GUI link :)

Handbrake to create MP4 files, and iTunes to sync them over to the iPod. Hanbrae creates files that iTunes recognizes as movies by default, so you may want to edit the movie info tags to something meaningful.
