Ideally, aggrigators would correctly recognize what part of the url is a filename and what part is a query string (and correctly follow redirects before bothering with any of that)
right, that would be ideal.... but it can get messy. and if i wanted to display the filename by pulling it out of such a url, in the feedburner case... the filename is fake ( channelname.ext).
anyway, i just added quick fix based on mime-type from the RSS.
which is another chaotic mess!! totally not reliable.
ie. to initiate Quicktime... i'm checking for one of the following:
"video/quicktime"
"video/mov"
"video/mp4v"
"video/mp4"
"video/x-mp4"
"video/x-m4v"
"video/m4v"
"video/3gpp2"
"video/3gpp"
"video/mpeg"
"video/avi"
this is what I use in my vodcast playlist generator which uses SMIL/QT.
am I missing any :) where is the best master list of media mime types?
At least feeds like spainful films now work -

I have never encountered this issue here. We should still be able to
download the files using that URL convention.
My feed recently updated to this sytesm:

I did note that feedburner was not technically doing anything 'wrong' but its definately an annoyance.... one resolvable by simply adding the filename with extension at the end of the url string. why is that not less acceptable?Actually ideally both would happen so that all parties are trying to be as widely useable as possible. I guess my thought is having feedburner do this as a fix is less acceptable because it only 'fixes' one feed source (that wasnt really doing anything wrong anyway) ... there are bound to be others and more and more and more in the future.
