Nasty to handle indeed. It may be the best we can do initially
at least is user_definedN or similar. No way of constraining
users from uploading something really odd that we can't define
an interface for (hopping whilst holding a phone in

Sadly there probably isn't much we can do about the format being custom.
Best bet would ultimately be if there was at least a standard tool
to generate the files for different devices...
