[mythtv-users] MP4 Videos

I'm going insane with this!  I'm fairly certain that the problem is with
Myth, NOT with ffmpeg, as I can play anything (and correctly) using Totem,
but in Myth I either get mp4 vids that won't play at all and certain avi
vids that won't play correctly, even though, again, they play perfectly fine
OUTSIDE of Myth.

I've scoured this forum and the other main Myth forum, I've googled like mad
and I've read through the wiki, but I cannot figure out what the problem
could be.  I thought about removing ffmpeg and reinstalling, but that wants
to remove so much that I'm afraid I'll break my Myth install if not my
entire OS install.

I've taken out the word "Internal" everywhere applicable (that I know of)
and unchecked "default" for all file types, as per the wiki.  And I've set
the internal player (in TV playback settings) for mpeg2 videos to use
"Standard" which SHOULD be using ffmpeg, though I don't understand how this
would affect any other file types other than mpeg2.

Someone has got to know more about this than I do!!  (ha...)

Thanks.
