Mp4

My daughter gave me a link to Google where she posted a video of my grandson's Christmas. I downloaded it and it seems to be MP4 and won't play on Media Player. Is there an MP4 player I can download so I can watch it and save it to disk that anyone knows of?
Just in case it is important, I'm running Vista and I did download the Windows Essentials Codec Pack which doesn't seem to help.
Thanks

OK, mp4 files are for players like iPods & PSP's.

A player called VLC will play them according to this article.....

http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/arch..._mp4_files.cfm

There's a link there to download it as well.

Good luck
