many (in particular video) streams have very windows-centric proprietary formats with DRM strings attached - so far, the stes I found that fail to play on the 770 for other reasons than bandwith or size won't play on my linux desktop either, at any rate unless I use some linux-wrapped Win or binary only codec (which are no option on a ARM box).
We'll have to hold our breath until the codecs have been reverse engineered into open source - by which time the stations presumably will have moved on to the next generation of locked and inaccessible MS or RM codec...
