Sorry about documentation, both my partner koos and I, none of us want to do the dirty job of writing a manual, I apologize for both of us :)

You just type the 1st letter, it will take you to the channel of the 1st letter, e.g typing U will jump to UK, and typing US, will take you to USA etc.
The jumping thing, I do not experience any, I guess koos is working to get the bug out, I got a better version you can only jealous :) , it will be taken care of soon..... BTW, are you using your fat finger or stylus, I carefully touch the title and did NOT experience any of those jumping. We will take a closer look

Each URLs costed quite a lot of time and energy to dig out and test etc. And some links I threw away for the N8x0 turned out worked beautiful in the N900. My point is, when a channel does not work right, it could be the limited by the tablet. The way I am using WorldTV99, I found the station I like and streamed good, good quality etc, I added to the favorite, and I turned to favorite to watch programs. Hope this helps somewhat, I really do not want to take links away unless it is proven "dead"

Other than Comedy Central, the next runner up for the most requested channel is................................................ ........................................

Bloomberg. Well, I have spent enough energy on Bloomberg, I think it is a goner. It now ask for subscription, and I am NOT going to spend any energy on it any more. Sorry, there is only so much time I can invest on one topic :(

well if you are not going to write a manual (strange) then make the app intuitive enough. :) what's with the need to double tap to open a folder? why is that needed?

We have some instructions with the release upcoming and we love to answer questions and feedback, I will try to finish it today. No. there is no need to double tap. A tap on the screen brings up the user manual. The flower sign at the right most is the favorite button to add your channel to the favorite, that is the way I recommend to use WorldTV99, otherwise, too many channels that one may NOT interested.

Feature request is the time now...................

Well, it's my first time using it in a while, so I'll keep the proverbial eyes pealed and see which break again.

I've got a rather interesting glitch here. This one appears to be date stamped, because I've tried it a couple times and got the exact same 1min 15sec update brief, but never anything more. It might be a date specific feed, so you may want to dig into that a tad more. ^_^ Either that or they've just been really lazy about updating it.

Oh, and one more question. Do you have any video streams from the east coast? All of the streams I see are west coast stuff. :(

I am watching it now, msnbc, mine is 1/20/10, well, 9 days old. You can always get the newsfrom cbs/nbc/abc, only 3 hrs from updating. 3 hrs is still news.

West coast, east coast, I dont think I have that luxury! I would take any local station as long as it is streaming with good video quality. As a matter of fact, the upcoming update, is going to lose quite a lot of local stations for news. They become dead links. This update is more geared towards entertainment channels, ssssh, let me tell you a secret, Victoria is coming to WorldTV99. Who is VIctoria? Cant tell you, it is a secret :) And for the sportfans, we have the swimsuit issue coming too............ :)
And for comedy, we have 5 comedy central channels, not 1, not 2, 5 altogether

KMPlayer itself has no special support for subtitles. MPlayer does, and there was some discussion on this topic on this forum. I guess you can search for it if no one else responds.
