Miro is running well but cannot retrieve any channel information, and your Internet connection uses a proxy? Miro doesn't support automatic proxy configuration files (*.pac) so you have to configure your proxy manually (server + port). In windows, go to the configuration panel / Internet properties, Connections tab then Network properties.

Miro can track your favorite video websites and RSS feeds (aka podcasts). A feed is a subscription-type service that will download new audio or video files as soon as the creator publishes new material. A website is simply a bookmarked show website, which stays in the Miro sidebar for easy access.

First, give Miro some time to make the connection - if after a few minutes the download hasn't started, there are a number of possible causes. Because Miro doesn't host any videos centrally, downloading problems often lie with the video publisher. They may be experiencing server difficulties, or have taken a particular video offline. If you have a channel set to Auto Download and you see the message Pending Download next to each video in the channel, don't worry, videos will download once other videos in the queue have finished downloading (there is a maximum number of downloads at a time, which is adjustable in the Settings dialog).

First, check the file format to make sure it's compatible with Miro - if you're on Windows, that it would play in VLC, and if you're on a Mac, that it would play on QuickTime v. 7. Second, check the file format of what you downloaded to make sure it's a video - the publisher might have put out some audio files (for example, .mp3 files), which of course do not include video. Third, check the size of the file you downloaded to ensure that it's not zero. If none of those work, the publisher is likely experiencing difficulties and may have published an invalid file.

First, give Miro a moment to find all the available videos. It sometimes takes a minute or so after you first subscribe to a channel for all the images and videos to appear, though usually it happens right away (By the way, this is because there's a myriad of publishing and RSS formatting options.) Second, if the channel still doesn't show any videos, right-click (Mac: ctrl-click) on the channel name in the left-hand sidebar of Miro and select "Update Channel Now." This will refresh the channel and may cause new images or videos to appear. If no videos appear even after refresh, the channel is likely exeperiencing server difficulties.

Also, don't forget that feeds have two sections that collapse and expand: Full Channel and Downloaded - don't forget to check those for videos that might have slipped your vision.

The results are limited because every time you search, Miro is directly connecting to YouTube.com (or other service) for an RSS feed of results. The hosts limit the length of the RSS results (for a variety of reasons), so it isn't something we have direct control over.
