Subject: [videoblogging] RSS feed help
I am having problems with my new wordpress blog for some reason
my feed
it coming back as invalid when I tried to create the feed using
feedburner I got this error message
The URL you entered does not appear to be a valid feed. We encountered
the following problem: Error on line 2: The processing instruction
target matching [xX][mM][lL] is not allowed.
Does anyone have any idea on what could be causing that? Any help
anyone could provide would be appreciated

[videoblogging] RSS Feed Distributing Wrong Video
Hi Everyone, I know this has been addressed in the past, but I can't seem to find it in a list search. I just realized that my RSS feed picked up a video I linked to on Jan McLaughlin's fauxpress.blogspot.com in a recent post instead of the video that I actually made. When I open up my RSS reader the video that plays in my feed is Jan's and not mine. Here is the link to the post to which I am referring: http://realitysandwich.wordpress.com/2008/01/13/bold-statements-all-around/ I can't figure out why this might be happening. I have not linked directly to Jan's video url in my post, but to Jan's archived post url instead, so I know that isn't the problem. Any ideas why my feed is not picking up my video? All I can think of is that there is something wrong with the way I embedded the vid on my site using blip.tv. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Tim realitysandwich.wordpress.com

How do you determine the RSS feed of a podcast on itunes? With friendly greetings, Linton http://counselingexam.com

Re: [videoblogging] RSS feed
Hi, Two ways that I know of. You need to subscribe the podcast then... 1) select the little 'i' icon on the podcast once it's subbed and it's listed under the title and above the description. You can't copy and paste it tho! 2) drag the podcast out of iTunes and onto your desktop. This will create a .pcast file on the desktop, which is just xml. Open that file in a text editor (TextEdit works) and it's there as the 'href' attribute of the 'link' tag. And you can copy and paste :-) (I've only tested that on OS X, don't know if it works on Windows.) On 4/17/07, Steve Garfield [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: good question!

In windows I right-click on the podcast, and choose 'show description' ...and it's at the top of the new pop up window that displays. Thanks, Devlon Steve Garfield wrote: good question!

[videoblogging] RSS Feed
Still trying to get a handle on this RSS feed. I was attempting to add my Video Blog, http://funnytheblog.blogspot.com/, which has an RSS feed, http://feeds.feedburner.com/FunnyTheVlog, to MeFeedia, but it says that it's doesn't contain links to the URLs of the movies. I'm not quite sure how you do that. When I to go Feedburner to create an RSS feed, it says there appears to be no "style" associated with the link and I don't know what that means either. Can anybody enlighten me? Thanks! (I also tried adding my BlipTV site to MeFeedia and that doesn't work either) -Bev SPONSORED LINKS Individual Fireant Typepad Use YAHOO!

Log into FeedBurner and enable the Smart Cast option... not Smart Feed these are different things in FeedBurner land. Check out http://FreeVlog.org and go to step #6 to learn how to do this.

Re: [videoblogging] [RSS] Feed is too long?!
RSS is not an archive format. It is used to provide recent updates to your site. This often means that it contains something like the most recent 15-30 entries on your weblog. As for the description elements, yes you can include the full text of your entries there. -Josh On 8/1/05, David Meade [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all.

That feed is fucking huge. I think you've missed the entire point of RSS. Have you used an RSS Aggregator? Check out Bloglines (http://bloglines.com/). Also, check out other people's RSS feeds for examples (there's generally a link on the main page of the blog). RSS is a mechanism of distributing information about new updates to a site (with the number of posts arbitrarily picked by the publisher, but the idea being it should be up to the number of posts a person wouldn't have seen if they hadn't checked your site in a day or two). You've got stuff going back to 2002. I limit mine to the last 20 posts, including full text of the postings in the content:encoded tag.
