mp4 is like avi just the container - the used codecs in it can differ.
but there are already many many maaaaaany threads about it.
try to install "decoders support" for additional codecs.

To make it short: MP4 can have different profiles and containers for audio and video. Use hexedit, mplayer and avinaptic to find out what sort of video format you have.
"the N900 supports the Baseline 3.0 profile"
Reencode your videos in case your format is not supported:
