    iMedia Player is pretty good. It's free which is good also. When you open iTunes, go to apps and you will see the app. Click on add and just add your files. No need to convert as it will play all types including mkv etc

    +1

    VLC will also work.
    Or you can download any mp4 file, drag to iTunes and sync.

    I use Oplayer HD and it has played everything i have thrown at it and that's on a first gen ipad. Haven't tried 1080p or 720p stuff, but can only imagine it'd struggle because of its age.

    There is a lite version with ad bar down the bottom to try it our

    I use AV player HD.

    Very easy to use app, it only cosy €2.99 if I remember correctly.
