Sharepoint 2007 ignores IIS MIME types

Question

I have two WebSites configured in my IIS 6.0. The first is a regular WebSite, and the other is a Sharepoint web application.

To configure the MIME type for .mp4 files, I went to both WebSites properties and under the HTTP header. I clicked the "MIME Types ..." button and entered:

Extension: .mp4
MIME Type: video/mp4

It works great for a regular website. But the Sharepoint website seems to ignore this configuration (the header field of the HTTP response header is missing).

Is there a way to set up a Sharepoint web application to understand different types of content?
