1) What is the Codec
2) Did you try placing it in a .MOV container?

..also please stop posting Mac questions outside of the Mac forum. Move requested.

MediaInfo, google it or search on sourceforge. MP4 is not a format, it's a file extension that describes a bunch of loosely similar containers, each with different codec support. It's actually quite hard to arbitrarily support ALL MP4 files.

I presume Hatt was talking about. He was suggesting you just install windows.
