Is anyone here working on getting RSS feeds up to provide for listing in the Yahoo Video Search? Any advice or tips with this?

All the necessary documentation is available at Yahoo Video Search. You just need to type up / generate an RSS file and submit its url.

I was reading through it but still had some questions. For instance if I submit an RSS feed with a html page included, will yahoo find any video content on that page itself, or must I actually explicitly define it in the feed?

Allfetish, I can't say for sure if Yahoo won't pick them up, since what I do personally is explicitly list every video in the domain.

The biggest advantage in doing that is you will get hits for keywords in the descriptions/title you use for each video clip.
