If you had a player (such as the Roku box or the xbox 360 after the Nov 19th dashboard update) along with a Sling Box, could that be a possible work around? I'm unfamiliar with the Slingbox although when I get my Touch Pro, I will be getting a Slingbox as well. If I understand it correctly, you can view not just your set top box (Cable Box, Sattelite Box) but your DVD player as well. Would it then be possible to Sling your Roku box to your phone for example? Or am I way off?

I would think this is possible as the slingbox just transmits whatever audio/video you connect to it.

You might have issues making the RF work, but the video would work I think.

So he used the Roku box directly without the Sling Box? Was this over Wifi at his home or over the cell network? If you could post a link that would be great. To have 12,000 movies available instantly on your phone would be so monumental I would really love to track down a way to make this work.

I'm pretty sure the Roku has only video outputs. So this would be impossible without a Slingbox or video capture device.

Does anyone know how to fix framerate issues with coreplayer? I was watching and .avi and it was skipping like 2/3rds of the frames.
