Windows Media Center Unable to Play One Video

I have been using Windows Media Center to stream my videos from my laptop (running Windows Vista) and so far it has worked like a dream. Then I encountered one problem. I went to play a video (an MP4) and I get the message of "Video Error: Files needed to
display video are not installed or are not working correctly. Restart Windows Media Center or restart the computer." I did try the suggestion of restarting and it did not fix my issue. This video file is the exact same format, and in the exact same location
as other videos that run perfectly fine. I do not understand why this particular one is giving me trouble. I have tried removing and adding the xbox to my streaming media devices twice. The video file plays perfectly fine on the laptop but just won't play
over the Xbox.
