Twonky 5.1.6 on HP EX470 and EX485

Two questions:

Question 1: I have an HP EX485 (running WHS 2.5, not the newer 3.0) which came with Twonky. Not sure which version (and I'm not at home so can't check), but it doesn't support .MOV files. Does Twonky 5.1.6 support .MOV files? And does 5.1.6 work as a direct "add-in" on my EX485, and without purchasing a new license key? I have read some of the many posts here but it is not clear to me. It does seem clear that I could attempt to remove the current version of Twonky, purchase Twonky 6.0, and make that work, but with some "challenges" regarding Media Streamer, etc. I would like to take the easiest path to being able to view .MOV files, and it would be great to hear that 5.1.6 does that and is a simple "add in".

Question 2: My son has an HP EX470 (running, I think, WHS 1.x) that came with PVConnect media streamer. Would the 5.1.6 add-in version of Twonky work on this EX470?
