WFM on Windows 8 but not on Win7. Windows Media Player on Win7 can't play that file either, this must be a limitation of Win7's Windows Media Foundation, there's not much we can do about that. :(

Looks like Firefox/Android cannot play this file too

Bug 863033: Three basket fixes

1) When language, country, or format is not yet set in ET, the database
   there will have NULL and ET will return None. Fix that to '' so
   we can use it later without worrying about whether it's None.
2) Only set CREATED_DATE_ in ET when we create a new user in ET, not
   when we create a new user in Basket.
3) When the user changes languages and subscribes to things at the same
   time, use the new language they chose when sending their welcome
   messages.

I'm not longer interested in this (the attached file still does not play). The intent was to play generated fmp4 files in MSE -- http://areweflashyet.com:8082/mse/demo-mse2.html works in Nightly on Windows.
