You ask for the parse_engine of a feed, but it's never acted on - you hardcode SimplePie, with no capability to tweak the settings it offers.

Title: parse engine is stub code that doesn't work » Pre-package mutliple parsing options (not just simplepie)
Category: bug » feature
Priority: Normal » Minor

Simplefeed Item at the moment uses SimplePIE exclusively. Other parsing engines could be written and used by the system. Simplefeed_item is a quick, easy, all in 1 package that handles parsing and storage via SimplePIE and node creation of feed_item. Simplefeed_Item provides simplicity, but if you wanted to write a handful of parse engine options, you could use any of them....at the moment, Simplefeed is packaged with only a single option.
This is more of a feature request -- to pre-package more parsing options.

SimplePIE is always used in the #validate, not the selected parse_engine.

The misplacement of the SimplePIE code in validate has been corrected. Validation is now optionally performed by the parsing engine which puts this back at the desire to have pre-packaged parsing options

Closing - I never wanted "more" prepackaged options - only that the capability worked as advertised. With the #validate correction, I'm happy.
