When I feed the following Sparkle update url to RR

http://www.iffmpeg.com/iFFmpeg6.appcast

it complains

[ERROR] I wasn't able to determine the name of this app, so I can't make any recipes.
[ERROR]

This puzzles me because in the appcast file there is a

<name>iFFmpeg</name>

entry. Am I missing something here?

Hi @workflowsguy - I've never seen a Sparkle feed formatted like that, and I'm not surprised that Recipe Robot is having trouble parsing it.

However, I do see a download URL listed in that feed that looks exactly like a "latest version" zip: http://www.iffmpeg.com/iFFmpeg.zip

Additionally, on the iFFmpeg home page there's a link to a dmg download: http://www.iffmpeg.com/iFFmpeg.dmg

Try running either of those URLs through Recipe Robot and see what you get. ;-)
