Element thumbnail is undefined in a Java object of type class coldfusion.xml.XmlNodeList.

[Casey Dougall-2]

I don't understand how this is failing... keeps on saying thumbnail doesn't
exist... BUT the next node down is content which DOES exist.

I'm trying to set lists of things based on the reply back from
livestream.com API and everything is ok but these thumbnail
Element thumbnail is undefined in a Java object of type class

This Doesn't Work:
 <cfset request.ListClips.thumbnailurls
= ListAppend(request.ListClips.thumbnailurls,
ListClips.Reply["rss"]["channel"]["item"][i]["thumbnail"]["XmlAttributes"]["url"],
',')>


But this DOES Work:
<cfset request.ListClips.durations
= ListAppend(request.ListClips.durations,
ListClips.Reply["rss"]["channel"]["item"][i]["content"]["XmlAttributes"]["duration"],
',')>

</cfloop>

Any ideas of what I'm missing here?

This is their API over view with the sample XML return.

From the docs:
" If the thumbnail is not available for the clip then the element
media:thumbnail will not be present."

Maybe there aren't any thumbnails.
