VideoNest provides the infrastructure required to distribute video content to MSN through a compliant MRSS feed.
Once connected, VideoNest manages feed generation, metadata formatting, and continuous updates so your content is always ready for MSN distribution. Your video library remains centralized in VideoNest while MSN renders and delivers your videos across its network, including Microsoft Start and MSN properties.
A direct publishing agreement with Microsoft is required.
To distribute content to MSN, you must already be an approved Microsoft Start or MSN syndication partner. VideoNest supplies the compliant MRSS feed and technical delivery required by Microsoft, but does not facilitate new partnerships.
After enabling the MSN integration, VideoNest generates a validated MRSS feed structured to Microsoft’s technical requirements.
The feed is built directly from your VideoNest library and updates continuously as content changes.
What VideoNest manages
VideoNest gives you control over how content is distributed to MSN.
You can automate delivery across your full library or curate feeds based on editorial or programming needs.
Publishing options
All controls live inside your VideoNest workspace and apply consistently across your feed.
Go live immediately by generating your MSN MRSS feed from a VideoNest Business plan or higher.
VideoNest provides a compliant feed URL that can be submitted directly through your Microsoft partner portal. No additional development work is required.
Our team can assist with feed configuration, metadata mapping, and MSN MRSS requirements.
