iTunes U media kind is not recognized as video on iPad

I've submitted this to Apple via iTunes Feedback. I'm wondering if anyone knows a solution.

When I add an mp4 video to iTunes library and change media kind to iTunes U the video is not recognized as video anymore in iTunes U on iPad. iPad plays audio only.

If I change media kind to Home Video, iPad plays it as video in the Videos app.

I use iTunes U on iPad because it has speed control.

I can still play iTunes U videos where the media kind was set in the previous version of iTunes.

When I set media kind to iTunes U in iTunes 12.0.1.26 it's not recognized as video when played on iPad. iOS 8.1.

It looks like there is a problem with iTunes 12.0.1.26 not setting iTunes U media kind properly.

iPad Mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

II'm having a similar problem: created mp4 files using Premiere and uploaded files in iTunes U. One batch of times play fine. The otter batch will only play on iPod. When using iTunes on desktop, will get warning indicating that this version of QuickTime can't olay on iTunes.

what gives?
