It will be nice, if the Firmware will be integrated apps for the ZDF Mediathek (in germany), a Trailer App (for cinema Trailer) for europe users and youtube HD function.

 

That is what i am missing in the firmware.

 

Another cool App will be an Amazon LoveFilm App or for example a VideoBuster App to stream live from my video shop.

Is this so difficult?

This is exactly that, what I'am missing. "ARD"- and "ZDF Mediathek".

I strongly support this idea!

Don't bother about that anymore.  Europe has now adopted the "HbbTV" standard from the European Broadcast Union (EBU).  This does away with the need for all these different "Apps" to access streaming content.

 

HbbTV does it all, is provider independent, and is taking the world by storm.

 

 

Go HbbTV young man.   http://www.hbbtv.org

To be honest, this feature was the only reason why I bought a second (Android) mediaplayer. The WD Live Streaming is a great device, but direct access to the Mediathek is really missing.

A implementation of the ard/zdf/arte ... mediathek would be awesome

 

HbbTV is a hybrid system, AFAIK you always need a DVB input to make it work (so this impossible on the SMP), and also it is not the full mediathek that is available through the webpage.
