VERY IMPORTANT: in the Video Output Settings section of the primary Handbrake window, you MUST click the checkbox "iPod 5G Support" (if your version of Handbrake has this). For higher resolution, choose the "iPod Legacy" preset at the bottom of the list. For normal iPod resolution choose the "iPod" preset near the top of the list. There are two options for the click-wheel video iPods: smaller files that exactly match the small screen resolution of the iPod, and larger files of roughly double that resolution that will play better on an external TV connected to the iPod (useful if you travel a lot and want to plug into hotel televisions, otherwise not needed). If you don't see it, go to the Window menu and click on Presets Drawer to make it appear. Open Handbrake, load a video file you want to convert, and make sure the Presets window shows to the right of the primary Handbrake screen. (I had Handbrake on my old Windows XP box, but never installed it on my current Win 7 PCs, so can't remember if there are interface differences.)
I'm using an older version of Handbrake on an old Mac I dedicate for running old gadgets, but current Windows versions should be similar. Handbrake is the easiest, most foolproof way to convert videos for these ancient iPods- but you need to know the preset tricks.

The screen is small and its annoying to carry an extra item, but its worth it for the reliability and quick navigation compared to dealing with frequent SD expansion card corruption that plagues Android phones. I still use an 80GB iPod 5.5-Gen as my everyday music & video jukebox.
