Loading movies onto Ipad2.5

I want to take the Ipad away when we go on holiday, and would like to load some movies on to it to watch on the plane.

I have the DVD ripping software, and also the conversion software to change to an Ipad-compatible format, but how do I get the movies on to the pad itself.

I thought it would be a simple case of plugging in the photo loading gizmo I have, with a SD or USB card, and either running it directly off the card or loading it onto the pad the same way you do with photo's. Tried that last night as a test but it didn't want to know. Wouldn't find anything on the card.

Would I have to plug the Ipad into the PC and drag-and-drop the movies onto it, or is there another way?

I read that you have to go via Itunes. Is that the case?

Go check out AVPlayer, transfer movies over wifi and thru itunes and plays most video formats.

A review here, but there are many youtube videos that show it in action.
Nothing beats it really.

iTunes it surely is.

Apple do not do copy and paste.

Another vote for AVPlayerHD.

Plays everything you throw at it, and you can transfer videos without using iTunes.
