Can't convert videos, please help!

Ok, I did'nt get any answers the last time i posted this message, so I'll try again. It would be thankful if anyone answered me.
I have the latest Itunes and an Ipod 30Gb MKII. On my computer I have some music videos and some movies too in the formats .Avi, .Mov and perhaps more. The problem is that when I try to add them into my library in Itunes some won't just add?! And the little bunch of videos that after all do make it into the library won't fit into my Ipod even though I convert them into the proper format with my Itunes. The converted ones says "wrong format" or something. When I choose the setting to manually load my Ipod with videos, the converted videos work on my Ipod, but there's no sound. Why? Please help!

Some MPEG files don't seem to take the audio when you do an export from Quicktime player I've noticed, so i have to extract the audio and video seperately and re-mux them using a program call mpeg works, (all on a mac i'm afraid though).
the best way to make sure you get them iPod ready is to use quicktime to export the files using the iPod export setting. I think you need quicktime pro activated ($19 well spent for loads of video stuff). also you might need whatever the PC version of 'flip for mac' which allows avi and other non quicktime content to be played and edited/exported.....
doubt that helps too much though hey!
good luck.
to be fair, video on the ipod is pretty pants anyway i wouldn't bust a gut getting it on there...
