RSS Player Opml Creator


I have been having a lot of requests from users asking me what the easiest way to export all the podcasts from iTunes and import into RSS Player. Until now, you had to export from iTunes as an opml file, upload to a public server, then enter url into RSS Player to import. As you can see, this method was slow, hard to explain and problematic.

This brings me to the program I just created to help automate this process. The app creates an opml file from your iTunes podcast list and then gives you a tinyurl you can enter into RSS Player. This is not the ideal implementation and i'll keep working on it. ultimately, my goal is to import directly the RSS Player from this desktop app. That is coming in the upcoming weeks. I will also put out a mac version. If you have any questions, please email me.

RSS Player Opml Creator is available now at http://rssplayerapp.com/opmlcreator/win/

    Any chance you will have a Mac OS X version of this trick available soon?

    Yes, I am currently working on a mac version. Give me a few days. RSS Player 1.3 is still priority to me.

    Why if I open archive and try to run the .exe it says required file is missing thus cannot be downloaded.

    @Almerica: No problem sir, I fully understand that the iPhone app is your major focus. I was just curious.

    My Bad! I have not submitted 1.3 yet. It worked good today so I might submit tomorrow. Then it takes about 5 days.
