Problem w/ a WMV (plays in WMP but not MPRC1, Zoom, MPC)

[invader zog]

I have a WMV file that plays fine in Windows Media Player 11, but when I try to play it in MP RC1 all I get is audio. When I try and play it in MPC or Zoom Player, it just crashes. I opened it up in Graphedit and it looks the same as other WMV files that do play.

I see these entries in my error.log:

Any idea why it would work in WMP but not in my other apps? I'm assuming that has to be some sort of a codec related issue...
