I was looking at Googles RSS XML and was wondering if I could draw in and embed the videos as they come in through RSS... I have a custom bbcode for google videos and I'm able to pull in the google video player through the RSS Feed but it's the link it needs that gets messed up.

When I was looking at the RSS XML file I noticed it had <guid> with the link I needed (or so I thought) so within the RSS Feed manager of my board I had something that looked like this

{rss:description}

More... ({rsslink)

followed by the google tag

{rss:guid}

What this produced was the RSS info and the google player when it posted.

The google tag came out looking like this

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4361513763655744668

but what I need is


http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=4361513763655744668

So my question is, is there a way to replace the first red text with the second red text in some script within the rss feed manager?

Here is what I get by using the {rss:guid} code
