I use Qik.com and stream videos from my cell phone to Qik.

But I am not able to view the videos from Qik on the N810 itself.
While the Qik site seems nicely formatted on my N810 (using iPhone useragent), when I click on the video it tries to open it in Media player and then says format (mp4) not supported.

Why is it so difficult to use the N810 for some internet sites ? (I know its also upto these web sites to allow common formats unlike mp4 - it goes both ways).

Has anybody tried any other video blogging sites (like seeismic etc) successfully ?

If you install the mplayer plug-in for microb you will be able to view the videos in the browser.

The deb:

The needed lib (you already have it if you installed xkbd):

Install the lib in red pill mode.

Here's the author's page with explanation for the config options:
