Modifying file filters

How do I modify the standard file filters? For example, WMP has a filter
"Media Files (all types)" under File->Open, but this filter is not updated to
include file types that are associated with it beyond the defaults - e.g. I
set WMP as default app to playback .m4v extensions to play vidcasts as I hate
iTunes. It's very(!) annoying to have to keep changing the filter to "all
files" to see them in the file list, and of course the library doesn't
auto-update with newly downloaded vidcast files.
