why does the iPad make a duplicate "Video" album in the "Album" page when importing from a folder on my mac?

Why does the iPad make a duplicate "Video" album in the "Album" page when importing from from a folder on my mac? After i've imported the folder (that has videos in it), I then have a "Video album" in addition to the folder from my Mac. How can I delete one of these? Essentially they're duplicates.

Step01)

Result) Both folders contain the same videos.

Thank you in advanced.

I've the same issue. I think it could be something related to a sync problem because the files aren't using more space (thinking in a duplicate files error) in hard drive (iPad) but there isn't any information even searching in google. If somebody knows how to fix it, I really appreciate your help.

Hello, I realized that it's a way to 'organize' files in iTunes, it seems particularly iOS 7. The files are not duplicated, I tested sync from iTunes and disk space is not reduced, so apparently this is normal. You can create other video albums if you prefer. I don't like this new way of organizing videos :S
