oh yeah, I gave it a try once. IMO this is really strange project. These 
guys are trying to make their own player instead one that already works 
reliably. Democracy lets you pull the .flv and .mov video files from 
subscribed channels but does not play any of these - just crashes. In 
the same time mplayer, xine and vlc play those videos reliably so why 
not to use them as a backend?

Looks like someone is trying to invent another wheel...
