 In media.php on line 1080, there is no such thing as video/m4v mime type
 that can be used in the video tag. This essentially breaks all .m4v files
 from showing up, regardless of the mime type its delivered with. This
 should be changed to either {{{video/x-m4v}}} (non standard, but Apple
 recommended) or more appropriately the standards recommended mime
 {{{video/mp4}}}.

 Apple's .m4v files are essentially mp4 encodes wrapped with a different
 file extension.

 This is the video I'm testing with.
