Sounds like a reasonable plan. Certainly it is worth trying. Flip4Mac has always provided a number of WMF codecs for Quicktime.

As to the "files" OS X is calling them "files" because it cannot identify a player and/or a codec to play them. Possibly because…
  1. There is no player or codec for Autodesk Animated Movies installed on your system so OS X does not know they are movies or what to do with them or…
  2. …the file headers are damaged in some fashion that prevents their being properly recognized.
Autodesk Animated Movies were originally used in Windows games back in the early 1990's. I was able to find a player for Windows (most of them pretty old), but a quick Google search was unsuccessful in turning up anything for the Mac. Perhaps someone else can come to the rescue with a player for you.

If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
