Spot on!

And, how the "doesn't play in "Media Player" manifest itself, exactly?
MP just spins the five dots forever.

No error message, just five dots. For as long as I leave it. The longest I've tried was about 2 hours.

They are all MP4 files. Some of them play in MP, some don't. I can convert them to MPG with ffmpeg but the quality suffers.

The nice thing is you can still play these files in cutetube, though. Is there a reason you need to play them in the default media player?
Organization. I have a bumch (hundreds) of cartoons for the kids organized in folders by the show name. It is rather inconvenient to go to CuteTube just to play a cartoon, not to mention that CT does not know folders.
