Guys,

Has anyone gotten YAHOO TV to work on their n800?

I could be mistaken, but isn't that WMP format? If so, it'll be a cold day in hell when that works on the N800.

Yeah, definitely flv, and it doesn't play too well in browser using OS2008 on an N800, might help a bit if ads were blocked.

mplayer might do a better job playing the flv, but it looks like it's using the rtmp protocol for streaming, which mplayer doesn't support..

Might be fun to try downloading first with something that does support rtmp, and then play on the tablet.
