RSS Enclosures

[iso3200]

Hello. This is my first post. I just wanted to say PS3 Media Server is awesome!

Will there be future support for RSS enclosures? I'm trying to add a videofeed.Web entry in my WEB.conf file for the RSS feed at http://revision3.com/tekzilla/feed/quic ... efinition/. PMS reads the feed but tries to pass the value for <link> to mencoder.exe instead of the value of the url attribute of the <enclosure> element.

Here's a sample <item> from the feed:

The debug.log file shows:
[win32/mencoder.exe] INFO 20:29:09.714 Starting C:\Program Files\PS3 Media Server\win32\mencoder.exe http://revision3.com/tzdaily/2009-01-27links -prefer-ipv4 -quiet -oac lavc -of lavf -lavfopts format=dvd -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vbitrate=4096:threads=2:acodec=mp2:abitrate=128 -ofps 24000/1001 -o \\.\pipe\mencoder1233116949663

So of course this results in an error "mencoder.exe has a return code of 1! "

Am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: This occurred in version 1.03

I can't get the Tekzilla feed to work either.

I am trying to add this feed also and it will not show up on my PS3.

And

I think for feed items with both a <link> and an <enclosure>, PMS should prefer whatever's in the url attribute of <enclosure>. I think most feed authors conform to the spec: http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#ltenclosuregtSubelementOfLtitemgt. Hopefully PMS will include the fix in v.Next or whenever.

I have not been able to get Tekzilla working ... I see it listed on the menu but when I access It error mesage "The Data is corrupted"

Has anyone been able to get Tekzilla to work?

just done it and I've fixed the code

[xman]

Thanks you guys are the best...
When do you think the updated code will be ready?

[iso3200]

Thanks. It works!
I had a feeling it would be an easy fix:
This must be it: http://code.google.com/p/ps3mediaserver ... /Feed.java
I can't wait for the next release.

I downloaded Eclipse, and a SVN client to checkout the code. I ran it in Debug mode to see the changes.
I'm new to Eclipse (and Java in general) so I'm still learing the IDE and trying to get Ant setup to build the exe. It says I'm missing a Javac compiler? Does anyone know how I can build the project?
