Re: rss page won't display mp3 files (Salon)

The backend has been improved significatly since 9.2x, also you can set  
the feeds update prefences to never, this way you can manually refresh  
them when needed, the default is 3 hours. Hoppfuly they will extend the  
feed preview to show the links as well. In  one of the upciming versions.
