When I attempt to create a channel and provide a feed: http://www.msdivine.net/roku/msdivinetv.rss
I keep getting error "Failed to parse the feed with the following XML error: 'Error: Non-whitespace before first tag. Line: 0 Column: 1 Char: {'."
However running this file through a json lint such as https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/, i am able to validate that my format is correct.
Please advise.
By using a ".rss" file extension, you are implying that the feed file is XML based, when in fact, its contents are json based. Try renaming the file to use a ".json" extension.
So now i upload the feed as http://www.msdivine.net/roku/MsDivineTeeHee.json but it says that "No valid items were found in the feed: validate"
I have no idea why. Please advise.
What's the deal with the actual video url (.mp4)? It doesn't seem to play when pasted into a browser, does it?
The link initially had no video for some weird reason. Now I put the proper link and it plays in the browser.
But I still am getting error ""No valid items were found in the feed: validate"
Your feed file seems to validate correctly. If you've used the same name for the feed file after making changes, it may take upwards of 6+ hours for Roku to update your channel.
