Here's the video-blog:


There are 2 videos there..both are sitting on Blip.tv servers.  They both download OK.

However, the problem is with the Feedburner RSS feed.  The 1st one is generating an enclosure, but the 2nd one ISN'T:

Content Item: "start of Lap 1: S. Bourdais, et al [ CCWS '05 LBGP ]"
Content Item: "S. Bourdais @autograph session/Saturday [ CCWS '05 LBGP ]"


I just looked at the SmartCast settings, & the only thing I could find was:

"Create podcast enclosures from links to   "any rich media file"   "
"include Media RSS information & add podcast to Yahoo! Search"

I'm thinking of changing the 1st one to "video only"

I could use some help from you Multimedia experts, I'm a little new to this thing..

In the past, there have been some hiccups on Feedburner side (just look at their forums, it's loaded with frustrated users w/complaints).

Hey,

This is very strange.  What's wrong with a video/mp4 mime type for a
.m4v file exactly?  As I understand it "video/mp4" and "video/x-m4v"
are both acceptable mime types for a .m4v file.

I think this is just FeedBurner being wacky.  Do you have any special
settings on your SmartCast that would prvent a video/mp4 file from
being included?

That's what I was just looking into.

Why would one blip.tv video "work", & another one "not work"?

There's a forum for Feedburner probs, & man is it loaded with complaints.

I think you're right, it's a Feedburner issue.

But, wait.

I solved the above problem recently, by uploading my videos to my *own* server.  THAT, would imply it's a server issue on Blip.tv side.  I dunno.  Could still be a Feedburner idiosyncrancy, though.

I am looking into the SmarCast settings right now, will report back.
