Ah, I misunderstood your iPhone report before, thanks for clearing that up.

I connected to my iPod through iFunbox, created a DCIM folder in the root, copied over one of my already processed for iPod anime episodes, and connected my iPod to the iPad again through the camera connection kit. It worked the same as the iPhone; the Photos app came up and I was able to import the video. Of course any video in the DCIM folder of the iPod cannot be viewed on the iPod, so you are trading iPod space for portable iPad storage space. But at least it works as expected... the iPod can be used as a portable self-powered external video holder for the iPad.
