   I'm trying to find a way to post Videopress or Youtube/other videos on my blog and then create a Media RSS feed.

   The mRSS feed would deliver the video to a mobile device and play within the device. What I'm trying to do is different from browsing a html5 page.

   I've been able to validate my RSS feeds, and I do see thumbnails for my video when I test a feed in IE. (My videos are currently embedded via Youtube.) I've also tried to make a mRSS feed via feedburner, and still I cannot get the desired effect:
   A video-play icon should appear on a video that will play on a mobile device. Then the video plays directly on the mobile device via the video stream.

   My feed: http://zpix.wordpress.com/feed/

   My prefered solution would be: Make a valid mRSS feed from Videopress. IF anyone have any (feed & blog) examples -- please share!

   The blog I need help with is zpix.wordpress.com.

   @timethief or anyone else: Can you (or how do I ) submit this idea to Videopress/WP for further development?

   I tried that, but I'm a newbe to WP and this does not garner much clout here.

   They said they don't support mRSS.

   I doubt they really considered that this would be a quality add-on to Videopress.

   I'm sorry this was a "no go". Best wishes with your blog. :)
