Sorry, it is not possible to play these videos in VirtualDJ v5 limited DJ Console Edition because these files use a newer encoding method that is not supported by this older version of the software.
To play these videos, you will either need to upgrade to the latest VirtualDJ Pro v7.0.1 http://www.virtualdj.com/buy/index.html or convert the videos to another supported format for v5, e.g: MPEG2

If they were purchased in the iTunes DRM (Digital Rigts Management) days, they would say "Protected MPEG-4" Show below:

There is no way to play or convert these videos for use in anything other than iTunes (fault Apple and the RIAA for that).
BUT there may be hope! iTunes often allows you to purchase an upgrade to the DRM free version of your previously purchased "protected" videos. Go to the iTunes store and on the right under quick links, look for and select "upgrades" (I think). It is about $.60 a video and the DRM free, iTunes + files play in VDJ just fine with no conversion needed. I have well over 200 of them and mix with them at clubs all the time. Good luck!

Is video enabled? I had it disabled for a while when I had a slower computer and it did not even see the videos.

Not really man, I need more details, screen shots, anything more than "I go to the video folder and don't see anything". I am out of guesses.
