Hi !

It seems that your MRSS from http://www.veetubes.com/media/feed.xml are not
standard compliant. There are <sy..> tags that are not defined by the standard

and <content:description> value must be entity encoded.

Good Day

My name is Gina and I am conducting a study into the effectiveness of current
interoperability protocols.

If you have worked with interoperability protocols (such as OAI-PMH and RSS),
please complete the short questionnaire at:
http://banzai.cs.uct.ac.za/survey/index.php?sid=97137&lang=en

This questionnaire is expected to take only 5 - 10 minutes of your time.
This study is conducted as part of an MSc degree in the Digital Libraries
Laboratory, Department of Computer Science at
the University of Cape Town.

hi.

so i have found i had a small issue with my mrss file.

i have now fixed it, it had to do with <media:player... its all proper now.

but the entries that have been indexed by yahoo are not fixed.

will yahoo videos make changes from the updated mrss file?

thanks.

Hi,

I'm putting http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/ into my browser, which used to display
the spec and have the correct namespace on the page. At the moment, I'm getting
a 302 back to

Location: http://video.search.yahoo.com/mrss


and that URL is used as the namespace URI in the rendered specification.

Anyone else noticed this and know who to raise it with? I don't want any more
ambiguity in the world as to the correct namespace URI for this extension!

Cheers,

James

Folks,

I apologize for the issues on behalf of Yahoo.
There were indeed some problems with the spec. This happened when we were moving
the spec to the Video Search servers so it would be easier to respond to issues
and requests henceforth.

In any case, we have reverted back the spec. We are also working on a newer
version of the spec that addresses some concerns this group had pointed out
earlier, as well as some enhancements that we felt would be good to have.

We will send that out for review to you soon.

Thanks,
Sapna

     It looks like Yahoo once again arbitrarily changed the spec without
     telling anybody.

     As of the last update that anybody was aware of, we had:

     03/12/2008 - Namespace corrections: [1.1.2]

         * Added trailing slash to namespace


     The correct namespace *should* be exactly what you posted.
     Apparently, Yahoo thought it'd be a good idea to change the
     namespace again and break all sorts of parsing software. It is
     embarrassing how badly they've bungled this spec.

     Once upon a time it fell to Jeremy Zawdony, but he's left Yahoo
     since then. From what I can tell, nobody at Yahoo is paying
     attention to this spec.

heya!

so i like things to be perfect.

and a byte saved, is well... a byte saved.

so for the good of both my server, and yahoos servers... i would like to remove
all the whitespace in my mrss files... just the tabs and linebreaks between each
line.

will this break an mrss file?

thank you kindly,

tomek.

Hi,

Just curious, where all are you removing your white spaces? For example :
if you convert  <rss version="2.0" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/">
to  <rssversion="2.0"xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/"> , then its
going to break your mrss file, as it breaks the xml structure itself.

If you are keeping the xml structure intact, and removing white spaces only from
your content, then it should be fine technically, but then your content might
loose readability. For e.g., removing spaces from the title of your vides would
absolutely make no sense.

Thanks
-Nilesh

heya!

i think i mis-termed that.

what i meant, was for example:

<media:content ... </media:content>[LINEBREAK]
[TAB]<media:rating .... </media:rating>[LINEBREAK]
[TAB] .... [LINEBREAK]
</media:content>

converting that to:

<media:content ... </media:content><media:rating ...
</media:rating></media:content>

basically removing all the line breaks and tabs BETWEEN each tag, but of course,
not altering the contents of the tags in any way.

i havent done this yet btw, wanting to get a heads up from you guys first.

i have already spoken to the folks at truveo, and they have told me as far as
their parser, it will not break things.

lemme know.

thanks!

Hi everyone.
  I'd like to know how to access <media:content...> tag while parsing an xml
file.
I have a lot of <media:...> tags, and I need to get their content.
Thanks for any idea.

Sincerely.

I am using php5.
I apologize if i forgot that information. But if anyone get a solution within
any language, i'd be happy to know it.

heya!

since yahoo is working on spec 1.5 (according to this email i just got...) i
thought i would throw something out here...

why does mrss not have a published date / date added element?

google's video sitemaps use this as a marker to show the user when the video was
published / added to the parent site.

i think this might be helpful.

maybe i missed it? i see <dcterms:valid> in the spec, but this is for when to
display the content rather then when it was created / added.

just a thought.

Folks,

In RSS, the <item> element has a subelement called <pubDate>
(http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#ltpubdategtSubelementOfLtitemgt),
which is used to specify the published date.

Thanks
Sapna

Subject: Suggestion for namespace conflict resolution in mRSS.

Again, this email didn't go through :(. Can you send it to rss-media?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\
--------------
Hello rss-media,

As you people might have noticed, the mRSS spec is hosted at
http://video.search.yahoo.com/mrss/,   instead of
http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/.
Currently the old url redirects to the new mRSS location. Going forward,
http://video.search.yahoo.com/mrss/, is where the mRSS spec will be
hosted at.

Now, the mRSS uses http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/ as the namespace. So,
we wanted to ask what would be the best way to handle this namespace
conflict -
1. Should we just change the namespace to
http://video.search.yahoo.com/mrss/ in mRSS-1.5.0 ?
2. Should we support both the namespaces for a while and then deprecate
the older one? If yes, then how do you suggest we should support both
the namespaces?

If there are other approaches, please do share them.

Thanks
