I have a question, and you're the man to know, John

I've been serving media to my Xbox from Windows Home Server (for which I'm a beta tester). I know the Xbox can play mpeg-4, and I regularly have it do so from thumb drives and whatnot, but I can't get it to see the mpeg-4 files I've saved on the server (it does, however, see the wmv files).

Do know if this is a problem of WHS not having the necessary codec, or is it just a file association issue (WHS doesn't know what those mpeg-4 files are related to)?

The reason I ask here is because I could see this becoming an issue with the new Media Center Extenders if the host computer doesn't know what to do with those DivX/Xvid files.
