The container that lavf produces doesn't work with B-frames. Use MP4Box
instead. You should be able to take that file and do:

mp4box -add /tmp/test.mp4 -new /tmp/test_.mp4

and get a usable file. I don't deal with MPEG-4 video much (especially
in an MPEG-4 container), so the process /might/ be more complicated than
that. If that doesn't solve your problem, I can't really help since I
have no experience with WMP Mobile.
