iTunes videos?

Alright, I need some help in the computing area, and we have lots of computer people here, so I'm asking for your help!

Okay. So my dad got me the new iPod video nano, and I wanted to upload an anime episode I had downloaded onto it. The file type is called .avi, and it runs on Windows Media Player when I double click it. But, I want to move it into my iTunes video library (I have version 7.4, if that's a need-know). Is there any way that I can do this, and if not, how should I go about doing this in the future? :\

Thanks in advance!

Apple has made it pretty hard to get Videos onto their iPods if the Videos are not from the iTunes Music Store, this is because the Videos need to be in Mp4 format, to work on the iPods. Luckily there are plenty of programs out there that convert the video from whatever to Mp4. I use Videora, it seems the best known and most reliable that I've seen.

Basically you download Videora, open it up and from there it's pretty straightforward. It can take a while to convert a video.
