All we need is a plain text list of the links to paste into UKTUBE.
Love to watch your site with my N800. Good idea ..:

There is a difference between streaming and dl. UKMP/UKTube is a good idea for a last resort AND a small youtube file, but not practical for a 200 - 300 MB media file of a 15 min TV program, I trired to explain the difference,


[QUOTE Just to make sure i am not confusing anybody. Streaming video means video starts to play almost right away after a few seconds click on the media, similar to waiting for a browser page to load, this includes files as big as 300 Mb, and it does NOT leave a copy on your device after finishing watching. While, dl means one has to wait for the whole file to finish dl to your device and then able to watch, a small file like 10 MB will usually wait around 5 min to finish dl and the button changed from a white 'Download' to a green 'Play'. I usually click 2 to 3 files for dl altogether. Sometimes all 3 dl finish, sometimes 3 files dl sent the 770 to twilight zone, never have problem with 2 files dl. QUOTE]
