Streaming issues, "Insufficient Bandwidth", Kinoma fix or better player??

[deadhook]

I currently have Kinoma on my 700P with Sprint because I heard it was a great way to stream media. Unfortunately I find that an enormous amount of the files I d/l or try to watch give me the "Insufficient Bandwidth" error and don't play properly. I also was largely unimpressed with the Kinoma Media Guide because it's a bunch of random TV and Media streams I've never heard of and wouldn't use.

I know that there are other players out there, is there anything that will suit my needs better? I'd definitely get rid of Kinoma for something else if it was better and would work better.

Is there anything I can do to fix the "Insufficient Bandwidth" error or is it just stuck. It seems that anything I try to d/l that's over 2.5M doesn't play right.

Also, I have downloaded several videos and a few of them showed up in my "Pics & Videos" folder, others though did not. I couldn't find them anywhere, even when I hit "All Photos & Videos." Eventually I found that if I opened Kinoma and went to Video, there they were.... why does this happen?

Thanks for any help, I really know very little about this stuff and am trying to get the most out of my Treo that I can.

Can you share some specific URLs? I'd be glad to help you understand why this happens.

I'm sorry it's disappointing you. There's more great mobile-ready content in the Kinoma Media Guide than you'll find anywhere else, and lots of our customers use it every day (sometimes for multiple hours per day).

We're always glad to get feedback on how to make it more useful. In fact, v4.4's new search features came directly from customer suggestions.

The size of the media generally won't make a difference. We have many customers that regularly watch full-length movies with Kinoma Player.
