[mythtv-users] MP4 Videos

[jim scott]

Are you using the internal player or mplayer? The internal player should
play anything ffmpeg can handle on your system. Try ffmpeg -i <filename> to
identify the streams in the file and ffmpeg -formats to see whether your
ffmpeg can decode the streams in the mp4.
