Well, it didn't work as espected, NT registered .oggvideo (instead
.ogg.video). After a hack in the registry it did work as long as no
.video was registered. But I seriously doubt that the behaviour is
the same in Win9X and 2K. The dot is the problem, not the length.
the - is accepted without problem, but spaces are not. I suggest
not to use a dot (in the extension) even if somebody manages to
get it work on all Windoze just in order to avoid (future) 
problems.
