Media RSS and Audio



Hi all, I would make an MRSS with mp3 audio files, but audio doesn't play. My mp3 format is the following: Format : MPEG Audio Format version : Version 1 Format profile : Layer 3 Mode : Joint stereo Mode extension : MS Stereo Duration : 5mn 3s Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 128 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Sampling rate : 44.1 KHz Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 4.62 MiB (100%) My rss format is the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <rss version="2.0" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/"> <channel> <title>Custom Audio MRSS template for BrightSign Players</title> <link>http://10.28.98.60/brightsign/test.xml</link> <description>Audio Test</description> <ttl>2</ttl> <item> <title>Audio</title> <link>http://10.28.98.60/brightsign/audio/audio_1.mp3</link> <category>Audio</category> <description>audio</description> <guid isPermaLink="false">0001</guid> <media:content url="http://10.28.98.60/brightsign/audio/audio_1.mp3" type="audio/mpeg" medium="audio"/> </item> </channel> </rss> Does the brightsign support an mrss audio playlists? As an alternative, is there a mode to play an audio playlist updatable by rss? Thanks in advance Mauro

    I am not sure about this. I'm checking with our developers. Please submit a ticket to support @ brightsign.biz, and I'll reply to that once I get the answer.

    The unit is definitely capable of it, but I don't know if the current mrss code in our brightauthor script looks for mp3s.

    I know this is an old topic, but I'm wondering if there is an answer.

     

    The BrightAuthor manual says that audio feeds via MRSS is possible, but it doesn't specify file formats, bit-rates, etc. :

    https://docs.brightsign.biz/display/DOC/Media+RSS+Feed

    What is the appropriate setting for audio MRSS feeds?  

    Thanks!

    I just did a test and yes this does work.

    Any format MP3 that the player can play should work.
