My mistake, Jon. I was not paying attention

try this:
ffmpeg -i programme.mp4 -vcodec mpeg4 -acodec libmp3lame -sameq
programme.avi

Thanks. Well, that did not yield something that my TV could play.

I was wrong. My TV _can_ play this file, but I had not given the file an avi extension (duh!)


Mmm.  ok. Try this then:

ffmpeg -i programme.mp4 -vtag xvid -vcodec mpeg4 -acodec libmp3lame -sameq


This also plays fine, providing I give the file an .avi or .mov extension

Looking at the grid again ( http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4679516/codecs-table.GIF ) , it is somewhat obvious that if the program pays any attention to the file extension then the MPEG-4 variants that it can play are going to be AVI or MOV. Sorry for being a bit dense.
