That's a joke, I hope there's a way to circumvent that eventually.

Use Mplayer & Kmplayer. You can play lots of different videotypes with mplayer and videoperformance is better with mplayer. Of course not "Superbetter" :D

Is a pre-compiled version of MPlayer for Harmattan already around somewhere?

And yeah, some videos that worked (badly) on PR1.1, just error on PR1.2.

Which reminds me of an N8 -- how difficult can it be to get it all right in one device...
Add a few cm's of silicon FTW :confused:

At least the N9 is available for purchase, the Raspberry hardly ;)

now you all know why i told you, why nokia didnt give it latest chipset? omap4 will be so f*ckin cool, no offende here, just a lil bit dissapointment, if this is they(nokia) last maemo device, why dont they give it at least some mid chipset? sorry if my quote sound like an hater, but fyi i love maemo. ..

Yeah I know about them but still, wanted to see improvements w/the stock app, not regressions.

I found this thread cause i discovered all the videos I transferred from my N8, taken from my N8 are not playing on my N9. I knew it was somewhat laggy on Pr1.1, but PR1.2 changed it to show that stupid message. Like it plays part way and then suddenly the message appears.

Man Nokia, make it so I can play N8 videos at least!
