    That's funny. The official website lists mp4 as one of the supported formats.
    Have you checked to see if there is a firmware update for your player?

    MP4 is just a video container. It's likely the codec your video is using is not compatible with the player. A re-encode to something more standard h254 (I think? :) ) for e.g could sort it
