I had the same problem when the file was called .mp4, but it worked when
it was .m4a. iTunes played it, and I could drag it to the iPod.

The iPod played both the file I created with faac/mp4creator and one I
made with Quicktime. I couldn't seek on the faac file though, it didn't
display any time elapsed/remaining.
