Hi !
First thank so much for this fix ! Really Good job !

I plan to use it to repair my iTunes Podcast system.
Do you know how to install it on a web hosting ? Cron tab ?
I never used something like that before ! I just can't use it on my
computer because i'll give the feed url to Feedburner to convert it to
iTunes podcast users.

Thanks again !

I setup mine via rdp on a windows server hosted with my ISP. I opened
the required ports on the firewall and adjusted the podcast URL feed
to match the public ip details.

Regards,
Brian Gabriel

That's because u have a rdp access to ur web hosting.
I have only access using ftp or ssh to mine. It's a basic mutualised
hosting at ovh.com.
Do u know how to without rdp ?

You will need some kind of java - is it available or can you install
it?
Yes, I can create GUI-less installation and will describe it on the
site.
I'll post comment here once it will be done.

Generally, this application is not suitable to work as server as it is
now. Problem is that with latest YouTube update, they allow to
download videos only if request for page was made from same network as
request for video, so for example if your server downloads page (RSS,
YouTube page, etc) from address 123.123.123.123, but client is with IP
45.45.45.45, YouTube will disable such request. Network mask is quite
liberal (if server address is 123.123.123.123 all clients with IP
starting with 123 will be ok), so if your server is local it even may
be not problem. But for global, international sites it is not ok.

What I can offer you, is that I will add special option to the program
that will allow to proxy videos by this server, so all videos will be
sent through program.
But this will create huge traffic, so if you pay per Mb keep it in
mind and use wisely.
I'll create new issues and will do updates on this weekend and post
comment here, once it will be done.

I have very small limits with my provider, I was exceeding them with
simple RSS download, that's why I removed descriptions from video
feeds. There is no a chance that I will proxy videos, it will eat
monthly limits in 1 hour :)

It is hardly possible without scripting. You probably, can create
valid download feed with some RSS altering service like Yahoo Pipes,
but I guess, anyway, you will need some script that can proxy real
videos from YouTube, and this will require some scripts and
programming.

I have updated program with updates I promised, so, now there is
option to run serer without GUI, you can read description about it at
http://code.google.com/p/rsshandler/wiki/CommandLineMode
And there is option to run as proxy, it is also described at that
page.
This is included in version 2.0, and it is not featured yet, so you
have to download it manually.

I finally bought my own private server to run java and your app.
Is that possible to run your app to proxy 2 Youtube favorites video
feeds at the same time ?

Thanks !

You can run any number of feeds, favorites or any other type in
parallel.
Did you had any luck with running app on hosting?

Hello dima,

When I try to start the command :

java -cp -jar servlet-
api-2.5.jar;rsshandler-3.0.jar;miglayout-3.7.2.jar;jetty-
util-7.0.1.v20091125.jar;jetty-servlet-7.0.1.v20091125.jar;jetty-
server-7.0.1.v20091125.jar;jetty-security-7.0.1.v20091125.jar;jetty-
io-7.0.1.v20091125.jar;jetty-http-7.0.1.v20091125.jar;jetty-
continuation-7.0.1.v20091125.jar
com.rsshandler.com.rsshandler.PodcastServerImpl

I've got this error :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: servlet-
api-2/5/jar
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: servlet-api-2.5.jar
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:307)
at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:301)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:248)
Could not find the main class: servlet-api-2.5.jar. Program will
exit.
-bash: rsshandler-3.0.jar: command not found
-bash: miglayout-3.7.2.jar: command not found

The problem isn't the "-jar" but i'd like to know if there's default
value for proxy_mode or port.
By the way, how to fix this problem?

Thanks !
