I ask becuase the device expects output that looks like this: http://www.w3schools.com/rss/default.asp Open your URL is Firefox > View Source. Ugly eh' You can get this output to work but you'll have to inspect the elements closely to determine where items start and items end. The element names you enter in your control panel are important. Title may be called something else (like summary), link may be called something else (like url). You'll need to organize your RSS feed into something readable to figure out the tag names. Hint: View Source > Copy Paste into text editor so you can 'move things around' while you sleuth it out. Comments Do have any control over how the RSS is output?

Buzztouch should be able to handle this RSS but it can't. Comments Because this is a YouTube RSS I can not change the output. Buzztouch should be able to handle this RSS but it can't.
