Michael, thanks for testing it. That is correct, you'll have to
transcode mpg files to mp4 format yourself (for now). If yours are not
working then I have to assume its a transcode error or something.

The main reason I wrote this was so I could access my own mp3
collection from anywhere (it works great on edge). The other stuff
that safari can handle is just an added bonus. I would like to write
the ability to transcode from the UI eventually.  Theres not *a lot*
of work here. It only took about 2 hours to write, and maybe 4 hours
to package up the code, create the google code project, website, and
youtube video.
