hi tanja and list, merging both plugins is a great idea! itv plays all rss-feeds vpodcast didn't play (like quarks&co and the german tagesschau). it seems to be more versatile. i also like that itv streams the video and doesn't download it. it would be great if you could choose between downloading or streaming. however, i like streaming more than downloading. imo the "internet tv" menu entry should be a movies submenu. this makes the main menu clearer.
