Annoying Import Video Issue

[MacVDS]

I don't know if this has been addressed already, but I don't understand why I can import and play on the iPad MP4 videos my camera creates (in an .AVI container) using the camera connector, but those very same videos will not transfer via iTunes unless I physically convert them to MP4 files first. Isn't this something that can be fixed in iTunes or is this not possible? It wouldn't be a big deal if the iPad would let me just move the videos from the "imported" album to another album already in the photo section. I wonder if iPhone4 OS will allow for moving and organizing photos/videos on the iPad itself?

Apple has been terrible regarding this. the videos I take using my new iPhone 4 also don't sync via iTunes...
