Pnd_utils is a package which for now only contain a few features, but will grow as i add stuff to it.
the first thing is pqr (pnd_quickrun). its a simple script that will run the first application in a pnd, without having to meddle with the long command line (pqr bleh.pnd) is enough.
the installer also add the mime type for application/x-pnd and the file association so that pnd get opened with pqr.
the second thing is a bit older (i made a post on that one alone a while ago, but now its part of that bundle). pnd_assoc, a script acting as a bridge between the regular os file association, and the pnd system. allowing us to keep the portability / mobility of pnd, without sacrificing the simplicity of clicking on something to open it.
To use pnd_assoc, open your file manager, right click the type of file you want to associate, open with other application. select use a custom command, and in the command type, pnd_assoc pndname.pnd. in some cases, the default runscript wont support having a file directly fed. if that happen, then pnd_assoc also support overriding the default exec script. for instance panplayer is one of those. to associate stuff to panplayer, the command is pnd_assoc panplayer ./mplayer.sh .
pnd_utils installer take care of the video association for you. its more of a tweak than a soft on that side. currently, all video formats i could think off, are linked with panplayer, (they might not all read, i dont know about that, i didnt test them all). but i figure, right now, PanPlayer is pretty much the best videoplayer the pandora has (vlc is probably more compatible if you dont mind slideshow XD).
it also include support for video streaming using regular cookie authentication (so that fileserve, hotfile, megaupload etc all work with or without an account). in combination with specially modified browser, you are able to play videos directly in panplayer, without having to save it to your sd card. (closest i could get from listening to streams, since while flash work now, its still far from stellar).
In a nutshell, any videos with a direct download link, should work (lots and lots of streaming service offer download link to their vids, megavideo for instance, often has a megaupload link in the player itself.
im open to suggestion as to what to add to the package, may that be more association support, or some completely new scripts. I can code too, but i already do enough of coding everyday. So long as the request is somehow scriptable, ill figure a way and make it happen eventually !.

also keep in mind, while i did test it a lot on my pandora. its still a very early beta. i doubt it could make your pandy goes up in fire and burn your house with it, but im not responsible if it does happen !

(not /usr/pandora/scripts/pnd_run.sh) but a binary that do something very similar to pqr.
