Having trouble with enclosures and Dropbox public links...

[Peter Carlson]

We finally got our podcast working with iTunes! Oh wait, no here's more problems...

We finally figure out how to use Dropbox to host our episodes. Then they changed the public link format. So I found a trick... removed "usercontent" from the URL seemed to trick Feedburner into making the enclosure no problem. Then with the next episode this trick isn't working.

Any ideas on getting Feedburner to recognize that enclosure and give us the high sought after "Play Now" link?

Our feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/HoaxerzMustDie

Any help is greatly appreciated. Why does this need to be so difficult?

I have been having this same issue and it is very frustrating. Have you found any solution since your initial posting? Also, are you using Tumblr? I've thought that the problem might be on their end, but it is more likely that it is with Feedburner...

I am having the same problem. Please let us know if you found the answer, or a different thing like feedburner that we can use. Also, it is so annoying that dropbox changed their public links. It used to be http:// but they changed it to https:// meaning that it is pretty much a private thing. I hop that helped, but I have no idea on how to fix it!

Alright guys. We tricked it. Change https:// to http:// and remove "usercontent" from the URL and it creates enclosures fine for us. Hope it helps you guys!
