What's new in Episode 219
STUFF
• Scott Asnault moves on to the set to be this week's Co-Host.
• Our Viewer Tech Pic of the Week is from Alex of Lansing, MI.
• Hulu.com. A new video content site that is streaming premium and current on-air content. And we have 100 beta invites for you the DL.TV viewer.
• Hulu.com side note...Scott misspoke about the Codec used by Hulu.com, but he was close. The FLV codec is the On2 VP6 that is supported by Flash 8 or better. Hulu's SD files are streamed at 480kbps and 700kbps. SD videos have a 288 and 360 vertical resolution while HD videos are encoded to 720p. Wanted to make the clarification.
• For This Valentine's Day: PJ Jacobowitz, PC Magazine's Product Review Coordinator, checks out a few gifts that'll win over your sweetheart: Customized M&Ms, iPod Nano in pink, Motorola S9 Bluetooth headset, Vudu, Motorola RAZR2 Luxury Edition and the Nokia Vertu.
• Folding@Home Update: The PS3 has had a software update. A little bit of background music for you and more. Click here for the PS3 update information. we are holding steady at 13, but moving up quickly. The DL.TV team has the most active users and in the top 5 for daily points. Go DL.TV!
• Next week: A little Game Developers Converence, Firefox Extentions. It's tax season! We will have a Tax Application round up for you and much more.

Hulu censors the reviews of the shows if they are negative[deletes them],just thought everyone should know.

When are the content owners going to realise that until services like hulu are available worldwide, people like me (from the uk) are going to continue getting their shows ad-free from bittorrent and usenet?

Robert you and Scott make a good team. Let Scott out from behind the camera more. Hulu was more interesting than I had heard. I like the idea of the content going to stream after it hits the US market in broadcast.

I thought the show worked really well today with Scott, perhaps he could be the permanent replacement for Roger given that he'll be available for pretty much every show? Keep up the good work!

Hi there from Bangladesh.. I have been watching from all over Asia as I work in the developing worlds, you blokes keep me in touch with whats hot and whats not.
I would go mad otherwise.
Keep up the great work and can I just say, as a MAC user it would be great to see something in each show... maybe just a little something...

Perhaps I'm a bit of a n00b here, but I was totally lost with the folding story. What is folding, folding@home, and what does it have to do with the PS3?

@ mark: Check out: http://folding.stanford.edu/
Basically this is the largest distributed computing program in the world and is run by Stanford University - it models folding and mis-folding of proteins. Anyone with a PC (or PS3) can contribute to the project.

Enjoyed the show tremendously.
I watched a bit after Patrick left and I drifted away even though I was a bigger fan of Heron.
With the once a week schedule, Ive put it back in my rotation and I have to say Im happy with it now.
Is it me or is Robert physically morphing into Patrick that that he has his chair?
Asnault was excellent at the 2nd seat. Speaks well, knows his stuff, knows when to shut up, wife thinks he's hot so its gotta help to double your female viewership. Only thing I can say bad about him is that he doesnt know how to spell his name. Be proud of the Arse.
Love 3 games, 3 mins,.

Another vote for Scott as co-host - he and Robert work well on-screen. That Valentine 'in-the-doghouse' segment was absolutely nauseating and annoying - please don't ever do anything like that again. Please? :-)

another way to access Hulu content is through the Veoh TV Player (http://www.veoh.com/veohTV/getStarted.html ).
The interface is Clean and easy to navigate through.
also a tip for Non US Viewers, Veoh TV + Hotspot Shield = Great TV
Enjoy
