For the un-initiated the simple solution is to score a 4.0.0 version of MKMerge, load up the file in question and just "remux" it (there's a button on the bottom left). Since 4.0.0 has no support for the compression that causes the problem the file comes out playable on the WDTV (at least on my WDTV Live). I looked through the docs on the 4.2.0 version (latest) of MKMerge and I couldn't figure out how to turn off compression. I'm sure there's a way, but for those of us w/o knowledge of how to work these things the 4.0.0 solution is easiest.
