Hi Group, As far as I have been able to tell this API just does not properly support media feeds like podcasts and vodcasts.
I know Blogger will give/generate special podcasting enclosure links for podcasters and Feedburner has its own way of detecting media content (and tools for podcasters) so it would only make sense to want to see this ability on the AJAX Feed API. Sample from BMW >> http://vodcast.bmw.com/rss will generate the enclosure tag but the feed API does not return data (the url) for this tag. Anyone else wanting to get more from feeds? I had added a temp workaround method for podcast feeds in my API toolbox but when pushed/ syndicated through feedburner it has the opposite effect of breaking podcast feeds with this current API. I use the Gadgets API for fetching XML content (over feed data) to side step this issue on the gadgets platform (and a very popular gadget also!) but this Google feed API does not support fetching XML alone as far as I know. My own server side feed/JSON/JSONP API script does this but I have been migrating over the the Google one and don't want to run multiple back end services that do similar things. (mine also handles xspf >> http://www.xspf.org/) So, Please Google, give the villagers access to enclosure or media tags or something as part of the REST/JSON/JSONP portion at least ;-) I have some neat plans for it. Many thanks in advance. :-) Cheers!
