There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you.

Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your MP4 file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to MPG4 on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the MP4 file in its original format (without conversion to MPG4 file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
