When using Google Reader to subscribe to the 'News & Blogs' rss feed, I get duplicate entries in Google Reader. It seems that one is in english and the other german. I'm not sure if I have something wrong, but the link I use in Google Reader to subscribe is:

MediaPortal News and Blogs

In addition, regardless of which article I click on, some of the website (dates, etc) are in German, although the url is MEDIAPORTAL - a HTPC Media Center for free! and not de.team-mediaportal.com.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Well, there are still problems and I still see errors with the validator.

    I think you should replace this:
    Code:
    <rss version="2.0" xmlns:mtree="http://www.mosets.com/tree/rss/">

    With this:
    Code:
    <rss version="2.0"
    xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
    xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
    xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"
    xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
    >

    And this:
    Code:
    <author>NAME</author>

    With this:
    Code:
    <dc:creator>NAME</dc:creator>

    And this should also be done:

    AW: Duplicate Entries in RSS Feeds

    yepp, but as thats 3rd party software...I usually try not to change too much in SC as long as its not causing showstoppers. Otherwise it ends at a point where we can't update any soft without 500 edits each time.
    As thats a minor change...feed is valid for now.

    Well, it's still not right. The last entry in the updated extensions list in Google Reader is "PurevisionHD Metro" of 25 January, and in the actual feed there are a lot more recent items.

    I think the feed is right now.. but still, the MediaPortal feeds are the only feeds I have with problems.. I may contact Google soon about this.

    Or maybe there is something wrong.. For instance, when I browse to this url, I get some german stuff which I wouldn't expect, since the 'lang=en' flag is set in the url.
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <rss version="2.0" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
