creating a rss

[Wingsgb]

Can some clear this up for me, iv tryed checking on the w3schools website but can find anything.

I have been creating some of my own .xml files to have the channels were i want them, also i can update and move things round if need be. Some test files iv uploaded work and some dont soo...

first dose it matter if i save it as a .rss or .xml

I understand the rest of the code apart from the below line

<media:stream url=" swfUrl= pageUrl= playpath= live=1" type="video" />
----------------------------------------------swfVfy=0 live=1" type="video"
----------------------------------------------swfVfy=true live=true

Why are the last three codes different on each rss feed iv downloaded to use as a template, dose it depend on the link or just 3 different way to write it.

i take it live=1 is the same as putting true? but what dose swfvy indicate?

thanks in advance

Iv noticed some links have playpath with them so take it you ad it were necessary , what dose advanced -v ?

I cant figure this out its very strange.

I open up Dreamweaver, create a new .rss file and add the below code

  Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/">

<channel>

<title>News Channels</title>
<link>https://sites.google.com/site/wingsgb22/LiveFeeds_News.rss</link>
<description>News Feeds</description>

<item>
<title></title>
<link></link>
</item>

</channel>
</rss>

This shows up fine in the online folder on my tv but as soon as i start adding ANY feed, even ones that are online and working the folder completely disappears.

  Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss version="2.0" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/">

<channel>

<title>News Channels</title>
<link>https://sites.google.com/site/wingsgb22/LiveFeeds_News.rss</link>
<description>News Feeds</description>

<item>
<title>BBC News</title>
<link>htpp://bbcnews</link>
<media:stream url="rtmp://fr-par-2.stream-relay.hexaglobe.net:1935/rtpeuronewslive swfurl=http://www.euronews.net/media/player_live_1_12.swf
pageUrl=http://www.euronews.net/news/streaming-live/ playpath=en_video750_flash_all.sdp live=1" type="video" />
<media:thumbnail url="http://thestreamdb.googlecode.com/svn/logos/8gbjlj.png" />
</item>
</channel>
</rss>

Why wont it work, im trying alsorts of combinations, not just the code above.

If i go to xml for serviio and copy the code it works so im at a loss.

Should work fine, in fact I have added your "Euronews" link to the Online Library . Check the log. Ensure there is no line break after .swf . There is if I copy the code from your post.

[Wingsgb]

yes it should but dosent

Can you enter https://sites.google.com/site/wingsgb22 ... s_News.rss into your serviio and see if it works? Im in Dreamweaver and theres no break all the below is on line 14

  Code:

<media:stream url="rtmp://fr-par-2.stream-relay.hexaglobe.net:1935/rtpeuronewslive swfurl=http://www.euronews.net/media/player_live_1_12.swf pageUrl=http://www.euronews.net/news/streaming-live/ playpath=en_video750_flash_all.sdp live=1" type="video" />

Iv attached my server log, what am i looking for? i see alot of errors with plugins.

https://sites.google.com/site/wingsgb22/serviio.log

Your log contains no reference to LiveFeeds_News.rss.
You need to add it to Serviio before it will display.

[Wingsgb]

it is added my friend look



I have restarted my machine, force refreshed.

[jhb50]

I have no idea what you added under "News" but it was not "LiveFeeds_News.rss" Once you do the log will show it as added and report any errors in it.

[Wingsgb]

I can assure you that the link was right its what I posted above!

Here's my solution.





Don't worry I have reinstalled serviio. Installed plugin, updated java and...... It's working how very strange.


Thanks for all your help. I will post my channels up for everyone soon with custom thumbnail logos.
