Hey Zachary G.1, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
With camera uploads, you should be able to upload the videos in your camera roll to your Dropbox automatically.
Would you mind attaching the screenshot you linked to your next reply, as we can't access it through the link, due to security reasons?
If you can also attach some more screenshots, showing your camera uploads settings, where options are grayed out, etc, it would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your help.
