HD100 .HDMOV Playback?

The HD100 faq lists "Quicktime" but isn't specific about .HDMOV. I've placed several in a media folder but the extender doesn't recognize them as useful media files.

I updated this line in Sage.PROPERTIES but it didn't help:
seeker/video_library_import_filename_extensions=.mpg,.mpeg,.mp2,.mpeg2,.mpe,.avi,.
divx,.mpg1,.ts,.wmv,.asf,.wm,.tivo,.m2t,.m2ts,.vob,.flv,.mp4,.mov,.hdmov,.trp,.m4v,.ogm,.3gp,.mkv,.dvr-ms


I also tried finding the files through the Imported File Browser. When changing the "File Types Shown in Browser" option I get the error "The option has been set on the SageTV server to allow clients to brows all file types." I searched around but I don't see where to adjust that on the Server.

I'm using the most current stable versions of the server/client and the HD100 firmware.

Thanks. Any help would be appreciated.

Why not rename the extension to just .MOV? I've never even seen an HDMOV file but from what I can tell by Google searching there is no difference between the two. Apparently the extension change is merely to differentiate it from the rest of the Quicktime standard which could be using any number of different compression techniques. HDMOV files should always be H.264 video and AAC audio. Both playable by SageTV and the HD100.

BTW, what is the source of your file? If this file was a purchase made through the iTunes Store it is DRM encrypted and is not playable by SageTV. SageTV can only play DRM-free content.
