Issue Summary
Hi there,
im running Drupal FileField 6.x-3-1, Views 6.x-2.6 and FFPC 6.x-07. Feeds are shown in RSS-Readers, but when I try to validate the RSS-feed via www.feedvalidator.org or validator.w3.org/feed/ it shows the following message:
Sorry
This feed does not validate.
*
line 18, column 0: length of 361 exceeds the maximum allowable for itunes:subtitle of 255 [help]
In addition, interoperability with the widest range of feed readers could be improved by implementing the following recommendations.
*
line 24, column 0: Missing atom:link with rel="self" [help]
*
line 24, column 0: Missing recommended iTunes channel element: itunes:category [help]
*
line 24, column 0: Missing recommended iTunes channel element: itunes:explicit [help]

In ffpc_plugin_row_podcast.in line 74 has incorrect variable name
Original Code
if (strlen($stripped_item_tex) > 255) {$item_subtitle = substr($stripped_item_text, 0, 252) .'...';
}
else {
$item_subtitle = $stripped_item_text;
}
Change $stripped_item_tex to $stripped_item_text
I'd make a patch but I think this module is dead.

My feed doesn't validate either. feevalidator.org says it's a web page and not a feed. It asks me for the feed address, not the web address.
My "feed" is found here: http://cbcchurchfamily.org/resources/audio/sermons/podcast/feed
It shows up when you enter in that URL as a feed with all episodes present and accounted for. But iTunes can't read it, feedburner doesn't find it, and feedvalidator says it's not a feed.
Any suggestions?

Well, never mind (I think). I went back and changed the Views settings. Instead of setting the style to "Podcast" as the tutorial instructed, I changed it back to "RSS Feed" and suddenly feedvalidator said it was good.

I'll try to make sure this validates before I post the next release. The explicit and category may not be built into the next release, though. Unless someone else wants to create that feature.
Ideally they will use the upcoming hooks that will be added on to alter the feed.

So, what's the dealio? I have the same validation problem and iTunes will not accept my podcast feed (I assume b/c of this).
