Those aren't DV files. For some reason Quicktime thinks that .map files should be associated with it so you get those icons for them.

You really should change your Windows settings to show the file extensions. Doing so gives you an extra bit of information that can help you track down and resolve little problems like this. It's especially important when so many applications try to take over other extensions for their own nefarious purposes -- like Quicktime aparently has for your interior files.

mapped the xported format to Quick Time.
Follow Scott Burns info, hes right. Choose to see you file extensions in your windows o.s.
Dont rely on Double clicking to get you to the right APP. I found while installing all the stuff you need for
Torque that the OS can get confused with all the file extensions.
Just because the Quick Time Preview
Icon shows, does not always mean its for that program.

Hammer is exporting the right files, you just arnt seeing them because youvemapped the xported format to Quick Time.

In Windows Explorer, go to Tools -> File Options on the menu. Click the view tab. Make sure the Hide Extensions for Known File Types is NOT checked. Next, click the File Types Tab and scroll down to the MAP, select it, and click Change. Select Hammer and you should now have the .map files pointing to Hammer instead of Quicktime.

Where did you read that Hammer should produce a DV file?
Because it does not, as far as I know. (:
