Would it be possible to have a template that adds other file types such as .mov to the web pages that are automatically generated by bbpro?

I would particularly like to have qtvr .mov files that launch when you click on a thumbnail. I suppose this might be technically quite tricky if suitable data has to be extracted from a mov file to produce the thumbnail.

The current workaround is to produce a dummy html page in bbpro then hand edit in the thumbnails produced in another program and hand edit in the links.

Currently it only supports AVI files. Thumbnails are a problem. If the AVI file is from a Canon camera BBPro can use the THM file for the thumbnail (and the shooting data) otherwise it just displays "AVI" in the web page.
