    "I see play episode as:" followed by a combo box with three different formats to choose from: flv, ogg and mp4.

    Also, off to the right is "Files and Links." I expanded that and right clicked on the ogg links and am downloading about 5 videos now. I plan to watch them with totem.

Things like removing keyboard and mouse input from it are music to my ears.
