Factory reset gone wrong. Is it bricked?

I did a reset in my ipod to restore it to factory settings, and i unplugged it midway. Since it had a bad battery, it lost power. After giving it a new(er) batt, whenever i plug it in, it goes to the apple logo for about 15 seconds, then shuts off. Power and home button both (seem to) do nothing, and i cant seem to get it into dfu mode to restore it. my windows pc also cant seem to find it in device manager. Did i brick my ipod?

Example video of how it responds:

(idk y this vid doesn’t wanna work)

Update: I was able to get it into recovery mode and seen by iTunes. When restoring, their servers for the software don’t exist, so i have to use my own ipsw file. No problem! iTunes, however, says that it was in and wants the iPod to be in DFU mode. (vid 2) I don’t know what’s wrong though since it gives the same message when an iPod is already in DFU mode? (vid 3)

iTunes seems to give the same DFU error when restoring either iPod, so I’m not sure what the problem is. I’ve tried reinstalling iTunes, using different versions even(both new and old). Both iPods and pc have been restarted multiple times, to no avail, even different usb ports.(I don’t have a mac to try this on, or else i would have) I truly believe that my iPod is more than a paperweight, but there seems to be a large corporate entity standing in front of me. How do I solve this DFU problem?
