That is not quite true concerning Earthtouch.com

Earthtouch rebuffers for me on both channels. So I don't (personally) see a difference. Not sure if SS attempted different setting to try to fix it since I've tried it though.

The iPod feeds would probably work with no issues.

Their HD feeds are probably not configured to be streamed.

Someone can ask them to fix this.

I have no idea which feeds they are using. However, the picture quality looks the same as the Earthtouch stuff I watch on my AppleTV, and I know that is HD.

Edit: Just out of curiosity, I enabled playback debugging and it indicated the episode (River Floods After Heavy Rains) I was watching was only 1.5 Mbps. That is the 5th or 6th video I have watched and I have only had one re-buffer during one episode. I would be curious to know why I am having virtually no problems and others are having similar issues as they do via Mediafly. With Mediafly, these same videos re-buffer every 2-3 seconds for me.

Crackle

FEARnet is a website created by Lionsgate, Comcast, and Sony Pictures Entertainment.

Crackle is country-limited multi-platform web television network and studio, administrated by Sony Pictures Entertainment (SPE) and formerly known as Grouper.

I think these two sites count as commercial websites.

Blank RSS feeds also don't count as a working RSS / Podcast / Vodcast feed in my opinion. Regardless I found the following Podcasts on iTunes:

• Crackle: Off The Hook!'s Crackle - Off The Hook!:
• Crackle: Standup
• Crackle: Wet Paint
• Crackle: Scrambler
• Crackle: Firehouse

If the american movie classics is based on this site: http://www.amctv.com then I can't even find an RSS feed, supersecretusername?

Isn't it Archive Movie Classics?

Yes you are right. I just figured it out (Archiveclassicmovies.com).

They have podcast page which comes up in iTunes.

A little note to the forum:

The ACM has links to their Podcasts that appear in iTunes.

Example: itpc://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/acm.rss

Now if you replace the “itpcâ€

it seems like my post is completly corupted

[campbellwang]

I cannot remember everything I wrote in the previous corrupted post but it went something like this…

Archiveclassicmovies.com have a podcast page. Each link you press will launch in iTunes.

If you replace the “itpc” with “http” then you will get the XML RSS feed.

The ACM podcast
itpc://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/acm.rss
http://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/acm.rss

The Adventures of Superman
itpc://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/superman.rss
http://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/superman.rss

The Hall's of Ivy 1949-1952
itpc://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/the_halls_of_ivy.xml
http://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/the_halls_of_ivy.xml

The Shadow 1937-1954
itpc://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/the_shadow.xml
http://www.archiveclassicmovies.com/the_shadow.xml

All videos on this site seem to be hosted on “Archive.org” which is very handy (http: //ia300219.us.archive.org/3/items/aces_and_eights_ipod_version/aces_and_eights.mp4).

If you want to watch videos from their “Movie Library” page, someone would need to create an RSS feed.

I hope this helps.

We have developed 10 channels for the Roku. We enjoy making these channels available to the Roku community and would like to be able to continue to develop more, but the development is time consuming.

We think these types of devices are going to change the way we watch television!

We are also really busy with stuff that pays so we thought we'd try the donation method........

[Edit: Follow the redirect back to the channel code after you make your PayPal payment to display the code.]

Donate any amount via PayPal (pay what you think it's worth, don't be so cheap 🙂 and we will send you the "Private Beta Channel" code for the channel you donated to. You can immediately install the channel by visiting "https:// owner.roku.com /account/ channelcode and putting the code in. Tell your friends! If we can get to the $$ goal on our channels, we'll be able to devote lots of time to creating new and interesting channels for your box.

Visit http:// www.vid points.com /donate/ to check out the channels and donate.

When we reach our goal, we will start the publishing process to be available on every Roku.
