OK, I'll try it.

I was using SimplyMepis...just playin' around before I had to do (another) Windows install.

That White Sox video plays for me too, but when I try to connect to a stream....nothing.

Mlb.com is exclusively Windows Media now, so you'll have to cobble together some sort of hack or emulation to get Linux to work.

I just tried viewing video from MTV's website and here is the message i got.

Detecting OS...

In order to offer a broad selection of full-length music
videos on-demand and free of charge, MTV Overdrive uses
Windows Digital Rights Management (DRM) to protect videos
from unauthorized re-distribution.

Unfortunately, Microsoft's Windows Media Player Plug-in for
Unix does not support Windows DRM. If DRM support becomes
available, MTV will develop a version of MTV Overdrive
that works for your operating system.

Good 'ol DRM....
