The problem (for me) in using Blip's feed is that I have only one account @
Blip and all my media plops down there first, including the audiobooks,
poetry and political stuff, most of which never gets posted to my regular
Faux Press vlog.
Now, if I could create different shows @ Blip, each with a
Andreas, just following up on this. I re-read all your comments in the
thread and I think this just about sums it up. Let me know if I'm
wrong.

Having some sort of wrapper around it is optional.
Optional for the author, but it must be required of the parser that it
understands the wrapper. Otherwise it will not be able to match thumbnails
to video files (or blog posts)

Then it will show fine in browsers, be XHTML compliant, and easy to
scrape while generating a feed.

Could you expand that a bit?
How easy is it for a layman vlogger to set a thumb in their post, then
have it come out in the media:thumb element on their feed? I am not
being sarcastic, I haven't played with mediaRSS as a content creator and
am curious about the workflow...I'm still green in
Well, the truth is that both approaches should be used.
So if the effort can encapsulate supporting mediaRSS and rel=thumbnail then
we'll be in great shape.
Wordpress etc should natively support mediaRSS output. But a plugin is a
good start. It could insert the rel=thumbnail and the feed could
Yeah, I'd give one of my toes (maybe even two...) for Ro's source code.

class=media-thumbnail ?
Yes, I think a class attribute on the image is good -- all that is
needed is standardization on the class name.
Also, it would make sense if the image were contained within some type
of block that refers to the video, like this:
a href=http://link/to/video.mov;
Although I agree with you Josh, why is class=media-thumbnail better than
rel=thumbnail in this example?
(It's consistent?)

Mike, if you read my more recent response, you would see that I pointed out
the need for a plugin for blog engines, though it should def be a core
feature, to output proper mediaRSS including thumbs. And I mentioned it
wouldn't hurt to also include rel=thumbnail in the posts markup.
of course

So why not wrap the image in an anchor tag
Yeah, although it would work, I think it's a bit more of a kludge (no
offense in that term, btw) than using a 'class' in the img tag. (imho)

It involved mediaRSS and Drupal. I think it was the thread that Mike Hudack
