The remote is awesome. I love the option where I can play m4v files from a link I clicked on the phone onto the main system. Can we somehow expand the format for the file types that Android is not supporting (read: Quicktime).

Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words!

We currently "intercept" all content based on these mime types:
Code:
audio/*
image/*
video/*

Unfortunately, only mime types known by the android framework are hijackable using this approach. It would seem that whatever extension your qt files have does not map to a mime type defined in the android framework.

Never fear, though. It is a rather trivial matter to expand our "intent filter" (as its proper name is) to match on url patterns i.e. extensions as well.

The reason we went for mime types is that we could keep the filter definition pretty damn short - basically the three lines above.

Could you make a feature request on the tracker and list whatever extensions you'd like us to snatch?
