Hi there,
The older berries (anything pre-bold) are generally bad at playing video podcasts (I also have an 83xx). Some (rare) will work if they're encoded just the right way, but the majority are encoded such that our berries don't have enough horsepower to decode them. That doesn't stop them from trying, though, and they do all sorts of weird things trying to play them (rebooting, skipping, sync issues, freezing, etc).
Wish I had a better answer, but the Storm, Bold and Curve 8900 are the only ones right now that can play most podcasts (and even they have trouble with some).
