How do I upload videos onto iTunes?

I'm using a PC and I don't know how to get videos onto iTunes (and then onto my iPod)

First of all, what are the types of video files that are compatible? I've tried .avi, .flv, and .mpg, but only .mpg worked so far (BUT! it wouldn't upload onto my iPod??)

Can someone please help me with this?? iTunes made me delete all my music on my iPod in order to sync videos, but what's the point if I can't put any videos on there anyway?

I believe only .mp4 will work. Not 100% sure though.

The file must meet the following specifications to play correctly.

H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
-or-
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats.

I guess all I needed to know was what file format I needed to use (.mp4)
