As for performance, my experience is that MPlayer is the best way to play videos on the tablet, although for some formats, the built-in Media Player works better. /.../ Another option that I wanted to do some time but did not get around to do yet is to provide a webservice that acts as a "filter" for normal video podcasts and that uses tablet-encode to dynamically convert videos to a format perfect for the tablets, so if you would want to use http://example.com/podcast.rss as a video podcast on the tablet, you could add http://example.org/service/tabletvid...om/podcast.rss to gPodder and that would contain the same content as the original feed, but with the enclosure URLs changed so that a download would trigger a server-side video conversion and then you always have a well-playable video on your tablet, independend on how much bandwidth the original video has.
