I found a cool website, http://imovies.blogspot.com/ with free full length movies in mp4 format. What do i need to stream them?

For simple offline playback of mp4 files I usually recommend QuickTime Player, the mpegable DS decoder, or VideoLan. I don’t think the mpegable DS decoder supports streaming, but I think the mpegable player does. I don’t know whether videolan or quicktime player support streaming though.

I should append to this: I don’t think mpegable distributes their player for free anymore. You can find it lying around the web by googling for mpegableplayersetup.exe
