Yes, and this behaviour is clearly documented in the kino man page.
Therefore I'm downgrading the severity of this bug to wishlist. I agree
that it would be nicer if kino detected file types automatically. Alas,
at least in the case of raw DV, there is no easy to parse header to
determine the file type, and autodetection will get messy.

I can try bugging the upstream developers about this feature request.
However, lately they've put kino into bugfix-only mode because they are
working on a new replacement. Wishlist items are very unlikely to get
addressed these days. That said, if someone manages to cook up a clean
patch for this feature, I'll happily apply it to the Debian version.

Regards,

Daniel.
