I have an xml file which i share to my own smart tv app. It has worked several years and suddenly today it doesn't work anymore. I did contact the support but they wanted me try here.. My question is...
We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.

Dropbox StaffHi there, deco10, I hope you're doing well!
I'm guessing you're using a shared link, is that correct? If not, then please feel free to clarify.
Does that shared link preview fine when you copy and paste it on a browser? Also, let me know if you use an API.
Do you get a specific error message and does this happen with any other file type?
Keep me posted!
