iMovie - Imported home videos not showing there.

I've used Imtoo to convert my camcorder movies to an iPad-compatible MP4 format and then use iTunes to sync to my iPad. The videos are showing on the Ipad under Apple TV - home Videos.

However, I can't see the movies in Imovie or Video Pad as it doesn't show. What do I do to allow the home videos to be visible in these apps?

Is it possible to move a "home movie" from Apple TV to camera roll? I'm just trying to get video clips from my windows desktop into my iphone camera roll. When transferring with iTunes, the video is dropped into the "home movie" section of Apple TV. I need it in the camera roll so that it can be accessed by Instagram. Thanks!

Movies transfered from Mac to iPad show up as music videos I have my ipad connected to my MB pro via usb-C. I’ve tried transcoding the video into several formats that are supposedly compatible with ipad, and have the ipad set to ‘manually manage music videos and tv shows’. drag n drop the video to my ipad via Finder and it accepts the transfer BUT the video appears on the ipad under ‘Songs’ and plays like a music video instead of as a regular movie. how can I get it to show up as a movie? note: I do have Cloud Music Library selected for music which may be causing the problem, I’m not sure. *when I transfer via AirDrop they go to the Photos library which is not what I want either. I’d like them to be ‘Movies’ in the TV app if possible. Mac: MB Pro 2017 Ventura 13.3.1 iPad pro 6th OS 16.4.1
