 <category title="Bonanza" description="The widowed patriarch Ben Cartwright had three sons, each by a different wife: the oldest was the urbane architect Adam Cartwright, who built the ranch house. The second was the warm and lovable giant Eric, better known by his nickname Hoss. And the youngest was the hotheaded and impetuous Joseph or Little Joe. They all lived and worked on The Ponderosa. Nearby Virginia City helped populate the episodes with guest starring characters from all over America." sd_img="http://griffingatv.website/images/mm_icon_focus_sd.png" hd_img="http://griffingatv.website/images/mm_icon_focus_sd.png">

Trying to load http://griffingatv.website/images/mm_icon_focus_sd.png in a browser fails.
If you can't load a url in a browser with the url you are telling Roku to use, then it's not going to load on Roku either.

Re: The feed wont display

That means I shouldn't load it off my domain?

Re: The feed wont display

All your links are broken on your domain -
http://griffingatv.website/

The only link that actually does anything is at the bottom of the page to install your roku channel.
Your website is screwed up, so your roku channel can't use anything there.  Fix the site and most likely your channel will start working again.  Ask HostGator for help if you need it.
