Find a band that has a better name...

But all kidding aside: try "311 avi" or "311 asf" or "311 mpeg"...

I guess four characters is just an arbitrary choice to limit stupid search requests like "mp3" which would yield a gazillion results and thus bog down all the servants it goes through.

Cool
just put the "311" between brackets, thus typing :

(311)

should work fine, I use it to find Star Trek filenames, they are 3 caracters too ; TOS - TAS - VOY - DS9 - ENT - TNG...

try it.
