hi paul some info here for u mate
How to put videos on iPad, play videos on iPad?

i personally use WinAVI 3GP/MP4/PSP/iPod Video Converter then would place into your itunes and sync

1) You can use cinexplayer. It plays most avi's with no conversion required.
2) You can use air video to stream from a pc

both work well.

O player HD is the best I've found. You can also stream avi over http without conversion if you've got a server set up on your nas or pc.

The best thing that just came out is VLC media player for ipad, allowing it to play many video files, and it is free on the app store, just connect ipad to pc, go to apps tab scroll down to file sharing, place the movie files under vlc and done, this is i think the best way of doing it, no conversion required or internet, just drag and drop.
