Custom RSS feed

Post by sasquatchua »

Hello! This year Maximumfun.org split how they deliver paid-subscriber-only "bonus feed" podcasts - one is the list like they had before, where every episode from every show is jammed into a single feed. The new feature is where you customize which shows you listen to and then they give you a URL with a custom-generated list of episodes. If I open my customized rss URL in Firefox, I do see an rss formatted document that is about 5000 lines long. When I subscribe to a new podcast feed in Media Monkey and give it the same URL, it says the feed has 0 episodes, even if I set preferences to "show removed episode links". Also, even in the original bonus feed there are episodes that don't show up in Media Monkey; my phone podcast app shows that feed has 660 episodes, while Media Monkey (again when showing removed episodes) has only 596. Is there any way to assess whether Media Monkey thinks the rss file is invalid, like a debug mode? Are there formats of rss that are knowingly not supported?

I'm currently on Media Monkey 5.0.4.2693 with a Gold license, although this problem has been occurring ever since Max Fun shipped this feature earlier in 2023.

Thanks, I will open a support ticket since I don't want to post access to premium-gated content here.
