cat don't know anything about mpeg, it just displays the data it read (in 
this case to a file instead of stdout).

You could process the mpeg stream and split it into two strams 
(audio/video) with transcode and then reboot into microsoft to do the 
rest, if you don't want transcode to do the job for you.
I have used streams made with help of cat in avidemux2 too without any 
problems. I would think it's more a bug in that software you use in 
microsoft.
