EDIT: Additionally, using your methods listed above (and the internal player), the CBS videos say "unsupported format".
"unsupported format" means several things, unfortunately. One of them, is streaming is not working will give the same stupid error message. Did you check whether your media player is set up correctly? I have zero problem with CBS, including face wthe nation with bob schiefer. They looked as if played with DVD, fantastic. Discovery Channel is a hit and miss, 50% stream and 50% needs to dl then watch. Postback if you have problem with CBS.

When you said videos are choppy, do you mean stuttering or the video is poor quality? The discovery channel when they work, they also crispy clear like DVD quality. BTW, I dl some videos and watch at the PC monitor. Surprisingly they are quite hi quality and is even watchable on a 1280X800 PC! I guess the 770's resolution of 800X600 is really not bad especially when cramped into a small screen as the 770.
