Bif metadata xml example needed

I have the Burning Bush Software to create bif files. I created bif files for my .mp4 files and now testing it out. But, now I can't seem to get the bif to show. I place the paths in my xml and the video plays fine, just no trick mode bif on FF/RW. I am using videoplayer and would like to know if someone has a sample xml file with the sdBifUrl and hdBifUrl in it and the location. I searched the forum and saw one example but that did not work on my Roku XS 4.8.

Update: Got it to work above the media tag in xml and I was missing
      o.SDBifUrl = xml@sdbifurl
o.HDBifUrl = xml@hdbifurl
in my categoryFeed.brs file and
        item.HDBifUrl         = validstr(curShow.hdBifUrl.GetText())
item.SDBifUrl = validstr(curShow.sdBifUrl.GetText())
in showFeed.brs

And in my xml file:
<sdBifUrl>http://www.xxxxxx.com/roku/bif/testvideo_sd.bif</sdBifUrl>
<hdBifUrl>http://www.xxxxxx.com/roku/bif/testvideo_hd.bif</hdBifUrl>
