Has anyone comipiled a list of RSS video feeds that eva8000 can play or know of where I might be able to find any RSS video feeds that eva can play?  The preloaded Nat. Geographic "Wild Chronicles"  is great and I would love to know of other feeds that I can stream to my eva.  Currently, after 3 days of trial and error, I haven't been able to find any other than the 'Wild Chronicles" feed.  Thanks in advance.

There are loads of feeds that you can stream to the EVA8000. Here's a few sites that have feeds that I use:

Revision3 (mature language on some feeds)

DLTV

Cranky Geeks

See my article here to learn different ways to add them once you find them. You will need to determine if the EVA8000 supports streaming the formats that the feeds provide. I find that any feeds that are DivX and WMV seem to work without issues. Feeds with MP4 and MOV are hit and miss.

I did look at your article and it was helpful.  How would one be able to tell if a particular feed has a format that eva can support?  I ask because I didn't see the any format indication on the Nat Geographic site that I referenced. Is it just trial and error?  Thanks again for your help.

Most sites will tell you what format the feed is in. Take Revision3 for example, go to the main site and click on "Shows" in the upper left. Choose a show from the list and you will be brought to the shows main page. There is a tab the says "Subscription Options", click on that tab and you will see all the different formats that the different feeds are in. As for the Nat Geo page, if you look at the feed page you will see the video file listed next to the paper clip icon. Look at the file extension to figure out if the EVA8000 supports the format or not (on Nat Geo, the format is mp4). Or just try the feed and see if it works. Remember, if there isn't an video/audio enclosure on the feed page but links to another page, that feed won't work.
