    hi people,

    i have d/loaded a video file and it is in MP4 format.
    I can't even play it on windows let alone my standalone.

    So whats the deal with MP4's?

    How do i play the file on my PC?
    and How do i Burn it to a dvd?

    is it as simple as getting a codec? i've been looking on the net and it hasent been much help

    thanks in advance

    I've having similar issues. I've used DivXtoDVD to create a VOB, however the audio is playing at 1/3 speed. What could be causing that??

    Well now I have perfect audio and the video is jumping every 3 seconds...err....

    I don't get it. The mp4 files play fine on the machine, but when I use DivxToDVD or WinAVI I either loose audio or get jumpy video. Anyone have any solutions to this?????
