For WindowsMediaPlayer and other players: www.3ivx.com.
Otherwise use QuickTimePlayer or RealPlayer which both have
internal support for .mp4 files.

It works pretty well for me.

Hope this helped

DVD is MPEG2, btw, Windows Media player should be able to play MPEG4, since
there are the codecs for it...
That is different of course if it's some other variant (QT, RM, Divx, X-vid
or *ivx)...
You can also try looking at www.doom9.org for more codecs...

Thanks for the correction.

Is there a short example of a mpeg4 file on the net
somewhere that I can use to test my WMP setup?

MPEG4 is pretty old, i can't remember any place still using it...
You can convert to MPEG4 some clips you already have with a software like
VirtualDub though---
