Sony BDP-S780 - AVI format

Hi,

I've always had a problem streaming AVI files to Sony BDP-S780 player (Blu-ray player) with an "unsupported format" being displayed on the player whenever attempting an AVI format file. I'm using the "bdp2011" profile and to fix the issue I have changed the mime type to "video/avi" (added media format profile section, see below) and this fixes the issue.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has this issue? I would have thought that Sony would use the same mime type for all there products and everyone else would have the same problem.

  Code:
   <Profile id="bdp2011" name="Sony BDP-Sx80/SMP-N200 (2011)" extendsProfileId="bdp2010">


      <MediaFormatProfiles>
            <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/avi" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>
...
