So, if I click on a "Play" link to a podcast feed I have setup in VideoCenter (the "Cranky Geeks" feed is a good example of this: http://rssnewsapps.ziffdavis.com/audioblogs/crankygeeks/cg.ipod.xml), the player opens, spends a couple of seconds buffering, starts to play (I can see 2 secs of video and sound), then abruptly stops playing with the error message: "File format not supported".
Yet, if I download the same file first, then play it, it plays perfectly!! What gives, and is there a solution to this. I'd obviously prefer streaming to tedious downloading then playing.

I've noticed this samething but I can't remember if I had the issue pre-Diablo? So I gave up on media player trying to play my podcast and just let YouAmp play the files....what gives?

YouAmp is a pretty good media player that works on a tablet. It has been one of my favorites from time to time.
