Matt, can Google Calendar import RSS feeds? I haven’t found any info about that.

If I ever redirect the feeds it will be to an equivalent feed provided by MySpace, if they ever get around to doing that. The dates go to 1969 when it can’t figure them out. Looks like the feed you pointed to is working okay now.

Thanks for the info TB. Hopefully someone will make a web-based RTMP-to-FLV converter eventually.

I can get a nice RSS feed of my MySpace calendar, but trying to bring the URL into Google Calendar doesn’t display anything.

First of all, you are awesome!

Also, You not gonna like redirect my feeds to porns sites or anything are you? LOL This is for a Christian Artist…

Real Question:

http://makedatamakesense.com/myspace/event/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.myspace.com%2Fsmichaelp&format=rss&style=simple

Why is the starting date in 1969???

It shows once you subscribe to it…

It does this on it and the blog myspace one as well…

Also, feed validator catches it… http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmakedatamakesense.com%2Fmyspace%2Fevent%2F%3Furl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.myspace.com%252Fsmichaelp%26format%3Drss%26style%3Dsimple

THANKS A LOT! YOU’RE GREAT!

Hi Scott,

I saw your post at http://makedatamakesense.com/download_daily_show/

Basically the new system at thedailyshow.com and tcr are rtmp-streams.

By logging the connections that the browser makes, you see redirects to urls like this http://www.comedycentral.com/sitewide/video_player/shared/data/flv_xml_gen.jhtml?ml_video=172071&hiLoPref=hi

That, if you follow them, include a rtmp-url where the videocontent is streamed.

You can use tools such as orbitdownloader.com to save the streams to a FLV file.

All the best,
TB

amp, I haven’t been able to reproduce that error. Can you post more details about where you’re seeing that?

This is an awesome tool… so glad someone took the initiative! When trying to export a myspace blog to RSS feed, I get these errors on your page:

Warning: require_once(INCLUDE_PATHabstract_db_object.class.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/.evans/smreynen/makedatamakesense.com/include/url_cache.class.php on line 3

Great tool. Only have one problem. The feed ascends from new to old. Problem there is events in the future are on top of upcoming events. Anyone know how to change this? Please let me know.

Sorry, I didn’t know where else to post this. On the feed generated for my blog, the entry’s ‘Category’ and ‘Current mood’ are included inside the XML item->title tags, making the Category and Current mood appear alongside the actual title in an aggregator. It’s not supposed to do that, is it?

You can check out the feed at
