Roku Developer Program

[mindtv]

Hello,

We've developed our own RSS 2.0 feed (using the XML standards) to feed other platforms (such as the Miro community, etc). (http://www.mindtv.org/rss.xml) [that is just a hand-built example feed, the actual RSS feed will actually be deployed on Friday].

We are looking into developing a Roku channel with this same VOD media. I noticed the MRSS code examples, but the documentations specifically says : "MRSS should not be confused with iTunes style podcast. While this template does include rudimentary support for RSS enclosures, its main function is to deliver content via MRSS."

Has anyone gotten a traditional RSS 2.0-formatted xml feed working? If so would you mind posting your code examples so we can take a look? Or any other suggestions on where to start? Thanks!

Technically, MRSS is RSS 2.0. The difference between MRSS and a podcast is the use of the <enclosure> element. Have you tried your feed with the MRSS sample to see if it works?
