Default A way to upload any file to a zune30

I have no idea if this has been done before, but I was playing around with the zune30 I purchased from a friend the other day and some software on my computer and I found what seems to be a way to upload any file to the zune hard drive. My zune has the latest firmware (3.1) and my zune software on my pc is up to date.
I would like to play around a little more before I post a well written how to guide, but first: does this interest anyone? and second: do you guys know what video resolution and frame rate the zune can display using the TV out? my initial idea for this is to save higher resolution video than the zune software will allow for use with the AV cables (arriving off ebay in the next week)

Indeed, this is interesting. So far no one been able to add files to the Zune's hard drive itself directly from their computer except through the Zune software with the latest firmware.

I'll be outright and tell you that so far this is rather limited but I have a few ideas that are quite promising.
Currently Im mostly just trying to get higher res and faster framerate videos to run but I need my new AV cable to realy test anything. This may prove to be a godsend to people who put video on their zune and have to wait hours for them to be transcoded, or it could be useless.

It seems like you are saying you found out a way to put videos on the Zune without it converting them.

Thats exactly what I'm saying (among other things), have tested on a five minute snippet of TopGear that went on without transcoding, have to say I was pretty bloody happy when it opened on my Zune
