The RSS channel reads and displays RSS documents that comply with RSS 2.0 and "Media RSS". The following presents details of the RSS document specifications.
◆ Character Codes
Only UTF-8 is supported.
◆ Text Format
Character data in tags must be plain text. Even if HTML or another markup language is used, it is processed as is, as character data.
◆ Restrictions on the Number of Characters
The maximum length of the value of an XML tag depends on the tag, as shown below.
| XML Tag | Maximum Size | Maximum Number of Characters | Supported System |
|---|---|---|---|
| <title> | 768 | 256 | 2.60 or later |
| <description> | 1020 | 340 | 2.60 or later |
| <copyright> | 768 | 256 | 2.60 or later |
| <link> | 256 | 256 | 3.10 or later |
| <author> | 768 | 256 | 2.60 or later |
| <url> | 256 | 256 | 2.60 or later |
| <pubDate> | 64 | 64 | 2.60 or later |
If a value is larger than the maximum size or if it exceeds the maximum number of characters, then if it is used as character data, the part over the limit is displayed as "..." If the data is used for internal processing, it is treated as an invalid value.
◆ Displaying Tag Information
The following table shows whether an XML tag applies to a <channel> tag or an <item> tag, and where it is displayed.
| XML Tag | <channel> | <item> | Screen Where it is Displayed | Supported System |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| <title> | O | O | XMB™ channel list Channel information screen Item information screen |
2.60 or later |
| <description> | O | O | Channel information screen Item information screen |
2.60 or later |
| <copyright> | O | – | Channel information screen | 2.60 or later |
| <link> | O | – | Channel information screen | 3.10 or later |

| <pubDate> | – | O | XMB™ channel list Item information screen |
2.60 or later |
| <media:content> (url attribute) |
– | O | Item information screen | 3.30 or later |
◆ Item Extraction Conditions
Whether or not an item is extracted is determined by the <enclosure> attribute and <pubDate> value. A single channel can include more than one type of format.
(1) <enclosure>/<media:content> attribute
If the url attribute extension or any MIME type in a type attribute is supported, the corresponding item is displayed in the item list of the RSS channel. Supported extensions and MIME types are shown below.

Priority when there is an <enclosure> element and a <media:content> element within an <item> element
The <enclosure> element takes precedence, and the <media:content> element is ignored.
Priority when there are multiple <enclosure>/<media:content> elements within an <item> element
For systems: 2.60, 2.70, 2.71, 2.80, 2.81 and 2.82
The first <enclosure> element that satisfies the extraction conditions is extracted.
For system: 3.00 or later
The <enclosure> element having the highest priority is extracted, based on the priority order shown in the above table.
(2) <pubDate> value
The value of the pubDate tag determines the order in which the items are displayed in the item list of the RSS channel. The latest 100 items are displayed with the most recent item displayed first.
An item that does not have a legal pubDate value is not displayed.

The image file of the url attribute is used as the thumbnail image for the item that is displayed in the item list. The supported image codecs are as follows.

The size of the image file must not exceed 200KB.
The size of a decoded image must not exceed 160 pixels vertically and 120 pixels horizontally.
◆ XML Entities
The five characters shown below have special meanings in XML, so they must be replaced by the respective XML entities when used in character data (these are defined in 4.6 Predefined Entities of Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Third Edition)).

|---|---|---|
| & | ampersand | & |
| < | less-than sign | < |
| > | greater-than sign | > |
| ' | apostrophe | ' |
| " | quotation | " |
All other characters can be directly entered in an editor that supports UTF-8. The entities can also be specified by a numeric character reference that identifies the Unicode value of the character. Some examples are shown below. (For more detailed information, refer to Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Third Edition): Appendix D Expansion of Entity and Character References (Normative).)
| Character | Name | Numeric Character Reference |
|---|---|---|
| © | copyright sign | © |
| ™ | trade mark sign | ™ |
| ® | registered trademark sign | ® |
