Convert Mov To Itunes Video Format

[JohnnyJoMP]

Just starting out with Toast 11 Platinum. I converted some Utube music videos to mov format, but the file sizes are so huge (2gb+ each)that I want to convert them to smaller files to put on my iphone. When I converted them to iPhone format, iTunes put them in as TV shows rather than movies. Copying the files to the movies folder has not helped. Going back and re-capturing the videos from utube is a possibility if it will result in better quality. How can I get itunes to recognize them as music (preferred) or as movies (2nd choice) instead of TV shows?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I found an iTunes setting to change the "type" of file.
