I’ve just finished version 0.2 now - It’s automated. I’ve used Ant build.xml scripts to generate an executable jar file that does all the parsing. Then I configured Windowz XP Scheduler to automate execution of the jar. I’m still tweaking the frequency.

Next steps are concurring the date bug and the comments for version 0.3 due later this week.

0.4 will include some server side caching stuff (on my side) to eliminate unnecessary ftp uploads.

So there’s a bit of a work to do to get to version 1.0. Once 1.0 is ready I’ll release the source code for download. So keep checking back.

I’ve isolated and corrected the problem you were having - it was totally not your fault. It was the result of a last minute ‘optimization’ gone awry.

There are 2 known issues right now -
1) I don’t seem to be ignoring commented html. So some links like the link to the high-definition Serenity trailer that doesn’t work - shouldn’t even be there since it’s commented out on apple - probably for a reason.
2) The second issue is the post dates. They all seem to be in 1970 - probably because of the quirkiness of the Java Date class. I’ll try to fix these this weekend.

Glad to hear you’re (trying to) use it Megan.

Thanks for letting me know about your issues!!! Let me know if you find any others.

I too am a avid trailer watcher and I’m excited about your RSS reader. However I can’t get it to work on Bloglines. It comes up but none of the links work. Is there something I am doing wrong?
