(I found this post on https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3046893?tstart=0)

That's interesting, as MPEG-4 (.mp4) videos are the preferred format.

That's the format youtube uses for Apple devices (Normally youtube uses flash, but it's not supported by Apple)

Other formats supported are:

.m4v
.mp4
.mov

If you've tried these, might have something to do with the site you're getting them from. As far as I know, the iPhone also formats as .mp4. Might be a problem with the iPad, so try restoring it (sync first) from iTunes.
