I have a gallery2 embedded into a joomla. Normal cooliris 2d slideshow works, but 3D slideshow comes up blank. (3d works in non-embedded version btw). Turns out, the embedded url serves up the xml just fine, but the xml is broken.
I'm pretty sure the offending line in the xml is the link line.
Good working non-embedded xml link: <link>http://koopatorivm.com/sjdesign/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=44</link>
Broken embedded xml link: <link>http://koopatorivm.com/sjdesign/index.php?option=com_g2bridge&view=gallery&Itemid=63&g2_itemId=44</link>
I'm pretty sure those "amp" things in the embedded link are breaking the xml.
Could someone point to the parser that's adding those amps to my xml links. I can't find it.
Thanks for any help!

I am, in fact, using your updated version of slideshow.

This is the urlencoded mediaRss that cooliris is looking at:
http://www.cooliris.com/tab/#cs=11&url=http%3A%2F%2Fkoopatorivm.com%2Fsjdesign%2Findex.php%3Foption%3Dcom_g2bridge%26view%3Dgallery%26Itemid%3D63%26g2_view%3Dslideshow.SlideshowMediaRss%26g2_itemId%3D41
which in flash-speak translates into http://koopatorivm.com/sjdesign/index.php?option=com_g2bridge&view=gallery&Itemid=63&g2_view=slideshow.SlideshowMediaRss&g2_itemId=41
but yours seems to have some extra output before the xml declaration while embedded. Joomla has to be responsible since non-embedded is fine.
They must be using a javascript xml parser reacting poorly to the format, as flash would not care.(your feed worked in my minislideshow)
Seems I repeatedly get trackbacks from some Joomla forums on this subject but cannot seem to find the links right now. Try googling it.
IMHO Cooliris has ruined their product. With all the ads plus they broke video playback for our sites back on v.1.10 and still have not fixed it in v.1.11.1(but they are working on it - yeah right)
