OK. I'm a bit confused through the thread.

1. do people get playback without the fuzziness? Which features (live? highlights? condensed games?)

2. for people with the less-fussiness issues, what version of MPlayer are you running? From reading another thread, the newest version doesn't seem to render DIVX as well as an earlier version so obviously there can be some major issues version to version. I'm wondering if another, earlier, version of MPlayer may be a better option.

3. Is there another media player better suited to mlbviewer than MPlayer?

4. How dated is MPlayer, anyway? From the maemo.garage page updates, there doesn't seem that much change, aside from being ported to OS 2008, since early 2007.

5. How can the casual user of an N8xx device figure out how well would a video transfer rate over wireless actually be? Is it low enough (on average) to *always* bea problem or should should the 400 level choice of mlbviewer be well within the range of wireless devices (which brings us right back to MPlayer being a problem).

6. The VLC media player? How could/would this fit into this area?
