iTunes and video's

How do I get iTunes to play normal .avi video's? All I have managed to do so far is play .mov files...
I'm asking because I've recently gotten a new iPod and I'm kind of clueless on how to get video files onto my iPod.

I've talked to other people and they told me to just go to Film in my library and select add file to library, but that only adds .mov files and just doesnt do anything at all when I try to add a .avi or .wmv file.

Thanks in advance.

PS. If anyone knows of a better/different way to get video on my ipod that would be appreciated aswell.

you have to download a program called "Videora" , it converts movies to mp4 format and then to your iPod already, you just have to update it :) GL HF with iPod
(there's no other way to play ur movies, avi files are not able to play on ipod)
