Jason posted how to do that three months ago in the mediafly shutting down announcement - Here is what he posted via cut and paste -
To export your existing OnAir subscriptions into an OPML format, just follow these steps:

1.) Go to onair.mediafly.com and log in to your OnAir account.
2.) In your browser address bar, paste the following link: onair.mediafly.com/opml.aspx
3.) You will be prompted to save or view the xml file, which you can then import into your preferred podcatcher.

If you experience any issues please let us know.

According to the Mediafly Website:

"Over the next three months, we will be releasing a way to download your existing subscriptions into an OPML format which can be imported into any number of Podcatchers (iTunes, Doggcatcher, PodTrapper, etc.)."

So, where is it???? Have we been abandoned???

Thanks for the link Wigster as I told the makers of the squeezebox radio the same thing and they told me to submit the bug but I never know how to report stuff using such forums.

One other thing I was thinking of doing is to use Yahoo Pipes to create a combined RSS feed of all my (say) music feeds and sort it chronologically. Then I would subscribe to it from the Squeezebox.

At least you can play all the feeds in one go, even if there would be no way of marking them as heard, or deleting them off the list.

Here is a feature request for the Logitech to do something about MediaFly on the Squeezebox. The more people vote, the higher up it will appear on the devs' priority list.

I've just come across this: it seems very similar in idea. If it were available for the Squeezebox, it could be a complete replacement.

I agree with you there. I did prepare my squeezebox by adding all my mediafly rss feeds to the podcast feature of mysqueezebox.com but that is no good as the way it plays podcasts with the podcast player is it plays 1 podcast from the list you subscribe to and then it repeats that same podcast over and over again until you stop it.

They really need to work on it to make it work right.

Not done anything yet - head in sand i'm afraid. I am needing a solution for my squeezeboxes but am not holding out too much hope. I wish they could leave the infrastructure in place and just not support it anymore rather than pull the lot.

So far I have found a way to juryrig a mediafly type setup. First I download all my new podcasts each day using feedemon for windows to itunes.

Itunes puts all my podcasts in to a special smart playlist that removes any played podcasts from it.

Then I use that computer with a copy of plex media server to play the itunes smart playlists in the plex app on my google tv :)

How is everyone else coping with the upcoming loss of Mediafly?

Beginning about 6 weeks ago all of my Chumbys stopped loading channels. Stuck on the "loading channels" message. This happens with multiple accounts and multiple models of Chumby.

Unfortunately, ViewSonic currently does not have a way for users to manually remove preinstalled applications at the present time. We will keep you posted with updates from the ViewSonic team. Thank you for your patience.

Thanks for the reply Trallyus. All I can say is it looks like the ignorant Roku users got what they wanted. Now they have nothing. I would not mind advertisements since it is (was) a free service. Sad thing is I will not watch any Mediafly branded material and the so called 'Enterprises' will be the ones who will suffer. Again the Enteprise funds would have been able to support the free service to consumers, but Corproate greed and $$$ got in the way. Such a shame when these compnaies fail to see who got them pretty much where they are today and this is how they treat them. I have since found another service, so good riddance to you Mediafly! You don't even have the decency to reply. Good Bye! And yes thanks for your service while it lasted. You blew it!

Technically they tried advertising in the past and a lot of the users were not pleased with it - specifically roku users were quite vocal in the past about having to watch car commercials before their episodes of twit.tv so that may be why they are not responding.

It may not sound right to us since all this time we enjoyed the service for free but they have to make money somehow so I can see why they are going the big business route and not supporting the old free user base .

Snapstream did the same thing with beyond tv as well in the past. All I can say is good luck in your future ventures Mediafly/Onair.

Trallyus

You call Viewsonic (who will laugh at you)

OK, I have enjoyed using your product and in fact have told everyone I know about it, they have also become registered users. It has been a great product with a unique niche!

I think you are making a grave mistake killing OnAir as you could continue servicing your many fans and followers perhaps with an advertising model as I for one would not mind using the product and seeing occasional avertisements if this were to keep the product alive! In fact I think you could easily continue to grow the product well beyond your existing userbase and easily fund it as well as becoming profitable.

Such a shame that greed and $$$ may have made you arise to this decision. Surely the income the enterprise business will bring in would have been ample money to support the OnAir product.

I will make sure to not use any products branded by Mediafly in the future. Thanks while it lasted. Now off to find a comparable RSS Media solution that will also let you keep your profile for your many platforms and devices. Anyone have any suggestions?

I guess there are two overall features that MediaFly will cease providing:

1) Building channels out of RSS feeds, so that all you, say, music-related podcasts are together in one feed, and you can browse it chronologically. I think that Yahoo Pipes can be used to build a single, processed RSS feed, which will look like a MediaFly channel (say combining a bunch of other feeds, only the last few weeks' content, etc). Then you can subscribe to that from whichever devices through the appropriate podcasting solution.

2) Synchronising between devices: what would be needed would be some way of removing an item in the above RSS feed when you've finished listening. A script running on some machine that would reprocess and modify the RSS feed. I have no idea whether such a thing would exist.

Unfortunately there isn't a comparable alternative at the moment. We'll let you know if we come across one...

I have a Viewsonic Viewbook 730 with limited storage. Mediafly App came preinstalled and there is no readily apparently visible way to uninstall it. How do we uninstall this dead App ??

What will be the alternative on the WDLive? I don't get TV where I am, so I use MediaFly as a main source of news and entertainment.

Thanks

I am not sure what is happening, but lately my feed is having double versions of each podcast in my All (Mix) feed when I view it on the squeezebox radio as well as the mediafly organizer.

Also when trying to play the Popular Channels feed / Music feed on the squeezebox radio instead of it playing 1 podcast after another like it used to, now it only plays the podcast I selected and then stops. I am not sure if this is my problem or if it is a reproducible problem so I thought I would report it.

Also sometimes when I go to write in the forums , they seem gone and all I see is a white page or blank page.
Trallyus

While I would love to help, I think you would be looking for way more money than I could ever offer!! Still, I would hope you could find someone that would be interested.

M: I looked at Downcast and lots of other podcast clients and decided to try Downcast first based on your recommendation. Thanks. I think you found a winner. I really like the iCloud syncing too. only had it for a couple of days, but so far, so good.

There are currently no plans for selling or open-sourcing the OnAir platform, If you are interested in making an offer, though... ;)

how did you create an rss channel? if you added an rss channel at http://onair.mediafly.com/AddFeed , that is a permanent addition, though when we close down OnAir in March, it will no longer be accessable.

Is there any chance the onair experience would be taken over by another company? Open sourced? Or is it truly many years of development of a great product dumped into the garbage?

For those of you using the iPhone, I found a great app for that purpose - DownCast. I installed it this weekend and it works great! Too bad there isn't a Roku version.

No help here?

I am currently using a registered version of feedemon to keep up with my podcasts as nothing will replace mediafly with my squeezebox or other devices. Maybe now the squeezebox makers will make it so that the podcasts player on there does not keep repeating the same podcast over and over when playing one.
Trallyus

onAir will be greatly missed. It was the only podcatcher I found that allowed me to manage my playlists across four devices without getting multiple downloads and missing an episode. You will be greatly missed and I appreciate the work you have done.

As we begin to transition, I would appreciate any advice from members who are investigating alternatives to their situations.

stuart

What are other possible solutions for WDTV Live Hub?
Thanks in advance.

@cvcharlton - yes that is correct, the OnAir apps will not be available on Roku, or any other device, come the end of March.

I don't get it. All I know is that I watch several shows on Roku after I added the channel via the Channel Store. So what does this mean?

Several weeks ago, NBC broke away from the Roku Newscaster channel, meaning I can't get full eps of Maddow from them anymore (the NBC channel is only clips, not actual whole programs). So I figured I'd get it all on MediaFly--amongst other programming I found and enjoy on MediaFly.

So what exactly does this mean? No more MF on Roku? Will someone clarify that to this podcast/device moron?

Thanks.

@Thomascmcanamon - this feed is now up to date. http://onair.mediafly.com/Podcasts/Feeds/ESPN_NBA_Today

There is nothing we can do with the live stream in the TWiT app. While we do offer live streaming as a service through Mediafly, TWiT has chosen instead to use the free Ustream service. If there are issues with the stream, you will need to write either the folks at TWiT, or the Ustream team...

Justin

@Marvelous, there are no plans to close down the TWiT app, at the moment.

Thanks Kell! :)

@stevejk55 - try Bubrry on the Roku... it's listed here Blubrry
