After some digging I found out it's an MPEG4 Audio codec.
This one did it for me.

You might also need a avc1 codec which you can get at...

Well, glad you got it working. It strikes me as odd that you needed a weird codec, though, since aside from XVid (and maybe that's the trick, I don't know), everything I have installed on this machine (my work laptop) is pretty much bog-standard.

(That said, I do also have some MP4 apps installed for converting television shows to something my iPod can play, so maybe that had something to do with it too.)

For what it's worth, the machine I'm on now, a Power Mac G4, has just recent versions of QuickTime and iTunes (one version behind the latest ones).  It doesn't have any oddball codecs, most of which aren't even available for the Mac outside of specialized standalone freeware applications.  Yet I had no trouble with the videos.  Who knows?
