RSS upload for Truveo, Blinkx...

**chadon** · 10-13-2007, 06:55 PM

I tried to submit my videos in some video search engines like Truveo and Blinkx but I need a special kind of RSS feed and I don't really know what to do with their instructions.
Maybe this can be included in a future version.
Here is the instructions:

We will add support for mrss format in next release.

Hi,

Yes I would just like to second this, as its not possible to edit the rss.php myselfe if you could add support for Truveo in the next releaese that would be great,

Thanks :D

All that is needed in order to submit and have your site work with TRUVEO and Blinkx are RSS enclosures.

Here's what I got when trying to upload my RSS feed.

If Admin can add the enclosures, then everyone can happily use these services to promote their sites & videos... otherwise, if you can't wait for vShare 2.7 release I'd recommend paying a freelancer to write you a separate RSS writer that uses the proper media content enclosures.

However, I'll leave this info here because it may still be useful for others...

Hmm...I believe that admin said they'd add this capability before the 2.6 release, but I didn't see anything about it being added. Hopefully in 2.7.

mrss need direct link to media file, this is why we do not include mrss in vshare. Most of the users don't want to provide a direct link to media file. Even youtube do not provide feed in mrss format.
