How long until HBO and PBS will be done? What kind of Podcast content is available? I assume I won't be seeing the latest episodes of "Entourage", lol.

HBO and PBS sometime this evening unless something unexpected comes up.
The contents of each channel are listed on my site (http://thenowhereman.com/roku/), but no, don't expect full episodes of hit shows.
One nice thing about the way I chose to set this up is that I can modify channel content in real time without updating the channels themselves. For example, people who have installed the NASA channel might have noticed that I added GLASTcast to that channel this morning. That change did not involve an update to the channel's code. I simply added an entry to a database on my end. So content can easily be kept in sync with what a given network is offering at any given time.

Thank you, thank you! I'm at work so I can't add the channels now but just wanted to say thanks and lobby for nickjr.com or something similar for the grandbabies...
Terry
p.s. NPR podcasts would be sweet, too.

I'm not really technically knowledgeable when it comes to Roku. But why can't full episodes be shown? Are they in a file format that Roku can't play, like AVI?
Also, don't know if it's possible, but is it possible that Gametrailers.com content can be added (like Angry Video Game Nerd, etc)?

Nick is on the list.
Problem with NPR is that most of their content is audio only. So far, I'm trying to stick to just video content, but perhaps at some point...
