ITunes Help: Importing Video from Computer?

Question

I recently downloaded a video off the internet. I wanted to be able to see the video on my iPod, and decided to import it into iTunes. When i tried, it gave me an error message reading : "The file '[file name here!]' cannot be imported because it does not appear to be a valid exported file"

I've heard that I can change things on the computer so that it will allow me to import, but I haven't figured it out.

Anyone able to help? I'd rather not change the format,

Oh, it is an AVI File, and is 607 MB [[it's a pretty big file!]]

I always use Aimersoft iPod Video Converter to convert avi video to MP4 video, it also embeds an iPod manager that can transfer video to iPod directly without iTunes.
