Mplayer or xine. Both play mp4 files here with no
troubles.

Aqualung can convert MP4 files to MP3 via the file
exporting feature
(as well as play them, of course), if compiled with ffmpeg (supporting
AAC) and lame.
thanks Dave and Tom, looks like I'll have to cart the PC to the office
for an upgrade/install session as I don't have any of that installed. I
got xine to play the files, but that doesn't help as I need to convert
them into mp3's that the ipod clone thingy will play.
I'd much prefer something command line though....

Hi!
Take mplayer and lame. I use it. Very commandline, easily scriptable.
mplayer -ao pcm:file=output.wav input.mp3
lame [all your options] output.wav output.mp3
Wit a bit of sed and awk you can have a nice script that even corrects
filenames. Because I usually put it in a for-loop like:
for F in *.mp4; do
mplayer -ao pcm:file="$F".wav "$F"
lame [options] "$F".wav "$F".mp3;
done
Hope that helps.
Kindest regards
Julien
