Here's what gets me. It's *getting* a content type that should be appropriate. And it's having trouble enclosing a JPG and can't tell you why.
Have you tried refreshing this feed? Here's the relevant portion, saying "Content Type reported: video/mp4" and "Media enclosure not created because: The content type returned from your hosting server was incorrect for your SmartCast settings." FeedBurner: " * Link: http://blip.tv/file/get/Jumplive-CCWS05LBGPSatAutographsessionSebasteinBourdais779.m4v Content Type reported: video/mp4 Media enclosure not created because: The content type returned from your hosting server was incorrect for your SmartCast settings. * Link: http://www.jumplive.com/champcar/sbourdais1.jpg Media enclosure not created because: A general error occured creating the enclosure. We sincerely wish we could provide more concrete detail, but alas. It eludes us."
