You can't watch it in full-screen mode? When you look at the attached .jpg of the viewing screen, do you not see the viewing and volume slider (it disappears within a few seconds but you can reactive it by moving your cursor across the window)? To the right are the three sizing options for the screen *and* each of them is dragable (well... except the full screen mode, of course).
Sorry B, about them Mariners, but they can't all be as good as the l'Astros, no? On the highlight reel from the 'stros game two days ago was clip of a fly ball dropping in front of two Astros outfielders

Who looked rather disgusted by the whole thing. As well he should.

Greyhost, what OS do you use on your PC?
For Mac or PC you can download some other viewers to work better on it, if you're trial edition is premium.
http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/subscriptions/download.jsp
Standard disclaimer - I don't do the video myself, so I've no idea if it will work.
All in all, it's the IT am keenly interested in, so if/when the video works on my N810, I might consider keeping the subscription
and as noted, I'll beta test with pleasure!

Another FYI for anyone interested. I just installed v 5-2 and following hvacengi's instructions, deleted the mlb directory in home/user. Unfortunately, this meant that when I launched mlb viewer nothing happened, so I went in to the hone/user directory and created a .mlb directory, then launched mlb viewer again and voila! It prompted me for username and password and, then opened the viewer. xlnt.
I set the video bitrate to 800 but am not sure if this makes any difference. Of course, today's games are yet to be played, but going back to yesterdays games, a click on mlbtv brings up the archived full game, but the video is still garbled. However, the recap (and all the replays) work great!
All this, of course, has had no effect on the Astros, who almost managed to get swept by by the Brewers

I had a similar issue. I fixed it by moving the .mlb folder from /home/home to /home/user After that it opened just fine. Now I have to wait until this afternoon to see how it works.

I was just looking at mlb.com and noticed that there is, in addition to the daily recap, a "condensed game" feed. Do you think it is possible to include this feed in the viewer?
This would really be nice because it's a great way to see the game and if the video works as well as the rewind, well, I'd be a happy camper!

Just got my gameday audio finally working
I deleted the 5-1 version. Rebooted. Went to the first post and opened the 5.2 version instead of saving it to the n800. Rebooted. Checked with emelfm2 for a /home/user/.mlb directory, but was not present. So i created the .mlb directory. Started mlbviewer and everything worked like a charm. WOW.
Thanks a million hvacengi !!! Hope you got your n800 back up and running !
And thanks to all other posters for the useful information
GO WHITE SOX !!

First of all: I don't want to hear you're complaining about the Astros!!!! Berkman beat up my poor pitching staff with his 5 RBI's And don't get me started on Roy "I'm gonna pitch like I used to just for the brewers" Oswalt...
Anyways, on topic:
I noticed the /home/home/.mlb directory on my tablet today too, very strange. My guess is that I messed up when I reconstructed the pypackager folder tree to make 0.0.5-2, since the original was lost in the flash (
)
But it didn't prevent me from getting the program to boot. Which I think is the oddest part. If you don't even get the first config dialog, that means that it cannot create the directory "/home/user/.mlb" but if it doesn't load after that it means that it can't open the config file. So from what you're telling me, for some reason the app had permision to create .mlb for me, but it didn't for either of you....
I'll have to investigate further, I'll look at the owner of my .mlb folder and config file, check the permissions, and then I may ask that one of you use "ls" to do the same as is right now, and then after deleting .mlb again to see if it's reproduced.
Glad its working!
Oh and blade, I forgot to enable the use of the radio buttons for stream quality. You might try editing the config file up from the 400 default and see if it changes (I suspect it will actually be worse, but you never know).

I actually don't like the Silverlight version at all, it doesn't work well for me on my Windows PC (running Firefox, maybe thats why) so I downloaded the MLB.TV mosaic which is much better, since its a separate application.
