Please describe your bug

Create a Music Video library with a few .mp4 video files and a single .ogg audio file.
Use DLNA browsing from VLC to list the content of the "Music Video" library.
Notice that VLC skips enumerating the folder completely and proceeds to play the first file in the next library.

During a short investigation I noticed that DidlBuilder WriteItemElement attempts to call AddVideoResource for the ogg file as it's media type is treated as a Video.

I would expect in the worst case for the file to skipped instead of breaking library playback completely.
