Publisher's description
From Google :Our mission is to organize the world's information, and that includes the thousands of programs that play on our TVs every day. Google Video Viewer enables you to search a growing archive of televised content; everything from sports to dinosaur documentaries to news shows. Just type in your search term (for instance, ipod or Napa Valley) or do a more advanced search (for instance, title:nightline) and Google Video will search the closed captioning and text descriptions of all the videos in our archive for relevant results. Click on a video title on your results page and you can view still images from the video and, where a transcript is available, short snippets of transcript text.
New version features include a fast download (~1 MB), the ability to play any video available on Google Video,. and it won't interfere with other video players on your system.
After you install the Google Video Viewer, simply play the video you selected.

Version: Google Video Viewer 1.0 beta
"Plays only GVI (Google Video) files"
Pros: Fast loads, plays while downloading. Easy instal.
Cons: Everything worked up to clicking on the video at google.com. It would not play it at all. The graphics were messed up completely. Even after completely downloading it, it still is messed up. Trying to go into full screen, it came up with an error about directx and closed the program, and I have directx 9.0c.
Also it only plays GVI, which makes it useless except for the video.google.com site.

Version: Google Video Viewer 1.0 beta
"good, although only for google"
Pros: It does not asks you annoying questions. When you click to download GVI video it starts download in background. Few seconds before download finishes it starts playing. Or if you click it to play. If you interrupt download, next time you click on hyperlink or open unfinished file it would continue download.
Cons: It's part of video.google.com which is excelent! So any software that's part of it can not be as good as site.

Version: Google Video Viewer 1.0 beta
Pros: For others who don't know how to use it, go to Google Video's home page, and click on a video with a blue triangle next to it. It plays in your browser automatically. There is no shell for the program.
