I guess I should have also added.... Ideally, (best case scenario) is not to have to make a separate parser for it as I would like my script to be "smart enough" to detect media content in feeds and auto generate the link to play the content. Similar to how I have it working with YouTube videos (like their video feeds), if it picks up/detects a YouTube video it will auto generate an extra link to play the content.
Your suggestion may work quite well for another idea I have based off one of my gadgets is a sitemap generator. It currently is mostly for Google Pages and Hosted Apps sites and will take the Google generated sitemap and output the links from it. This was mostly from them mapping to the long ugly hosted names and not your domain name, my gadget fixes this issue. Thanks again for the suggestion, but let me know if there is another way to trigger that from what I have. Cheers!
