Joel,
Canopus ProCoder can import QuickTime files and output to Windows Media.
The new ProCoder 1.5 even supports 2vuy mode, and so maintains native color
space throughout the encoding process. It's MUCH better for the QuickTime
environment than pre-1.5 releases.
And yes, WMP can't play a .mp4 file, unless the Envivio plugin is
installed.
If you need compatibility with older versions of WMP, I'd use WMV8 and
WMA9 encoded in 2-pass CBR mode. But that's probably a question for WMTalk.
