It doesn't support it because the hardware doesn't have a built in mpeg4 decoder and the cpu isn't fast enough to decode it by itself. The windows based software does it by transcoding it on the server and serving up mpeg2 to the device. There has been talk by several people of working on a transcoding server that could convert a divx/xvid on the fly and feed mpeg2 to the mvp, bu so far noone has done it.
