i've been trying to learn more and more about and the current functionality in the february ctp, so i decided to jump on the create-a-video-player-skin bandwagon and mock something up.

i thought it would be quite the incredible thing (read: couldn't think of a better idea) to show a player...so whoala:

and when you click 'start player' (yes i know it would be cool to show the player as a playlist and use the normal zune buttons, but c'mon, v.0.0.3 here...work with me people) it rotates to show you the video (if you don't own a zune, the player shows videos landscape rather than portrait).

anyhow, i'm hoping to evolve this a bit more when i have some more free time -- there is a small bug in the stream downloading calculations that i'm hunting right now.  in case you haven't seen the default video playing, it is the red vs. blue of .  here's the link to my zune miniplayer.
