Thus, the whole idea of 'download videos to have while on the go' doesn't work.

My memory card is a 4gb card in the internal memory slot. Anyone else had success with downloading to an internal memory slot card?
Yes. Be sure that you didn't do anything stupid like use symlinks on the card forcing the program to go into an infinite loop (as several people here have done in the past).

Wrong. This is NOT the same application that's on the S60 platform and this one was probably done by an entirely DIFFERENT set of developers than the S60 Podcast client team.
I know. I use the S60 v3 podcast client on a daily basis for both audio and video podcasts. It's pretty damn rock solid even though it could stand a few minor "tweaks" like an "Update All" function instead of having to select all and then update.
This thing is so beta it even says on the website.

I don't know how significantly licensing these formats would raise the price of the NIT, but it would definitely be worth it to make it more attractive to a larger audience IMO.
While that is very, very true, MPEG-4 p14 support is trivial to add to the current video center application when compared to licensing and coding in WMV support.
Not only that, I wouldn't be surprised if Nokia's working harder on the WMV support since that is what their new music store launching NEXT MONTH will be using. Of course, they'll probably do a proper cost-benefit analysis on the WMV licensing and find that it does NOT benefit them monetarily now to get 'er done for the N800 due to the low installed userbase so hopefully they will fix MPEG-4 p14 video streaming support.
Nokia's a business first and to them it's all about the dolla' dolla' bill, yo.

Artur Souza (aka MoRpHeUz) of INdT has announced Video Center for Maemo. Video Center transforms the Nokia Internet Tablet into a video library that lets you catalog videos stored internally and in MMC cards, as well as connect to other video sources such as RSS video feeds, internet TV, and connect to devices that support remote EPG. Myth TV support will be added in a future release as well as remote access to video files in other computers via FTP. A known osso-media-engine buffering bug/limitation currently prevents Myth TV to work properly on the N800. Check out MoRpHeUz' demo of Video Center: A beta version of Video Center can be downloaded at the Maemo Garage.

I saw a few mentions about catalogs. I've never gotten into the whole podcast/video thing so I don't really have a good idea of whats out there, or whats cool, etc. Anyone have a list, or their favorites etc. Along with how to set them up in the player?

Also, in the video I saw mentioned it'll do MythTV. I'm guessing thats still a bleeding edge feature?

Thanks

Hi,

i cant seem to get video center to acknowledge the existence of my 8gb internal memory card with... Only the device and external mem card come up. My internal card works like a dream on everything else... any pointers from the more computer literate would be appreciated.

cheers.

I think the developers of Video Center should have their styluses confiscated!!!

Please make it more finger/thumb friendly
