Hello all,
Just to let you know the BBC News team have just released some RSS feeds for the audio/video news within the BBC News Player.
We'll be adding this to the backstage.bbc.co.uk site tomorrow, but we wanted to give you guys an immediate heads-up. The feeds are as follows:
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/front_page/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/uk/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/world/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/business/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/sci-tech/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/health/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_uk_edition/entertainment/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/front_page/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/uk/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/world/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/business/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/sci-tech/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/health/rss.xml
http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsplayer_world_edition/entertainment/rss.xml
At this point in time these RSS feeds link through to an HTML page containing an embedded media asset.
We're in the process of negotiating a special backstage.bbc.co.uk feed that links to the media assets directly within the RSS, but in the meantime there are also some unofficial feeds on the net that offer this functionality (http://www.blackbeltjones.com/work/?p=1112).
