Miro 2.0 pre-release adds support for web video

For the most part, Miro 2.0 works like Miro 1. It lets you search for and download video podcasts from a variety of sources. If the podcast you're looking for isn't in Miro's directory you can add any RSS feed and automatically download and organize audio and video attachments.
Aside frm a new color scheme, Miro 2.0 also adds an integrated web browser and the ability to add a link to any web page to the program's sidebar. In other words, if you want to be able to watch videos from Hulu, YouTube, or another online video site, just add a link to your sidebar and you can open the web site with Miro.
What Miro 2.0 doesn't do is let you add sites to its search engine. So if you do add a page like Hulu to your sidebar, you'll have to conduct your search using the intergrated web browser, not the Miro search box.
