You should respond with this link, hoping it will be escalated to a real engineer...
[EDIT]

Here, VP8 is specified but not VC1
Yep, I didn't figure that I would get anything other than a L1 support answer and I plan on pushing the issue to see whether it is supposed to be supported or one of their marketing team was just over zealous. It could be that there might be plans to add this in FW updates and someone included it in the specs before they should.
In my question I did link to the discrepancies between what they had on the product page and the dev page, which why they gave me the reply of "I'd like to apologize to you as this information isn’t mentioned or made clear on our developers website page.".
I just thought everyone might want to know what the response I received on this matter. I'll update on any further responses I receive as I try to get this escalated, if anyone's interested that is.
Right now it's not that big of a issue for me as it's not something that I really use, I more concerned at the moment about getting the mkv/h.264 stutter issue resolved. But I know this is a concern for others that I know as they don't like to re-encode their vids and why I was attempting to find out if Amazon was misrepresenting the Fire TV. Before I push it any further though, I need to do some more tests.
