@Swoxx: It's in how I browse content, I suppose. When I get home from the office, the girlfriend and I browse/watch content from Giant Bomb, Screened and Tested one right after another. To open a different app to reach content from each separate site is one added step that I avoid doing by sticking with the aforementioned Whiskey Media app.

I'm using the RSS feeds with my XBMC add-on; I pass the username and password to authenticate in-line. For instance, to get the Giant Bomb "All Videos" feed at high quality:

https://${USERNAME}:${PASSWORD}@auth.whiskeymedia.com/login/basic-auth/?from_site=giant-bomb&next=/videos/feed/high/

Replace ${USERNAME} and ${PASSWORD} with your Giant Bomb username and password (as opposed to your Whiskey Media username, in case it's different).

Here's the full list of XML feeds that can be used:

I hope you guys get deep into Condemned - I've never found the the time to complete it and watching you guys is great entertainment. Keep going!

I think this is a bug and not on purpose. I dropped an e-mail to support@whiskeymedia.com on Friday about this.

As of about two weeks ago I've started having the same problem - constant buffering of most, but not all videos that I'm trying to stream to my hacked ATV2 running XBMC.

For a specific example, I have to buffer at about the 1 minute mark for the video http://media.screened.com/video/sc_besties_laconfidential_081211_1500.mp4 . On my second attempt, I buffered for an eternity right away when starting the video. The behaviour isn't consistent, but with no hardware changes on this end it appears to be something on Whiskey Media's side.

I've been busy spearheading the creation of an event that I'm now about 24 hours away from releasing this to the general media, but before I do that, I'd love to see if I can also use this as an opportunity to gather a bunch of Giant Bombers together in one place - coincidentally, at an event that will have people from Ubisoft and other video game studios in the GTA come to speak at. Interested? Here are the details.

Inside Toronto's Video Game Development Studios is the first of a series of Ryerson Computer Science Alumni Association (ARCSA) sponsored events. Our goal is to shine a spotlight on the leaders of technology who call Toronto their home, and to provide them with a platform to give back to the city by providing current student, fresh graduates and curious citizens with their insights on starting a career in a highly competitive industry.

We're pleased to announce that speakers from Ubisoft Toronto, Ganz and more have confirmed to speak at our event. Each speaker will be allotted twenty-five minutes: Five minutes to show a demo reel of their studio's recent work, ten minutes to introduce themselves and talk about their experiences, and ten minutes to field questions from the audience. Questions will also be accepted via e-mail, so ask away!

Inside Toronto's Video Game Development Studios will be held on Tuesday, August 23, 2011 at 6:30 PM in the George Vari Engineering & Computing Centre (room ENG103) on the Ryerson University campus. A nominal ticket fee of $5.00 will be required of all attendees. This event is open to the general public.

Guys, that was a terrific podcast. Really impressed by the wit and humour. WM picked well.

" Do you have to be a paid member to get access to these feeds? I can't get them to work in iTunes. After filling in my account data (won't accept username, so using e-mail instead), the feed has an exclamation mark next to it (!).

"There was a problem downloading "http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/feed/mobile/".

The URL "http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/feed/mobile/" could not be found on the server.

I really want this to work! Please help.

Yeah, I cringed inside as I assigned Team BR to season 2, but rationalized it as they did technically start second (and finished last). 

Now that I've got all of my media streaming going through a jailbroken AppleTV 2G with XBMC running on it, I decided to add an entry in TheTVDB.com to get my downloaded Team VJ and Team BR videos to show up in my library.
