Welcome to Joseph LeBlanc's Joomla development forum. This forum is primairly intended to discuss the development of components I've authored, such as the podcasting suite and Daily Message tutorial. Although I happily answer general questions about Joomla, you may get quicker answers by searching the Joomla forums.

it looks like the </br> gets thrown into the length attribute, is that right?
Shouldn't that be the length of the mp3 or would it typically be filled with "nothing" or something static?
Would it make sense to check something in the code of the podcast component or the respective plugin?
I didn't make any changes/hacks of course, but possibly still something might be wrong there?
Or would it help if I get you a user on the site?
Just thinking...

Hey guys,

Mine's a little different because I'm offloading to Amazon S3

{enclose http://12steprecovery.podcasts.s3.amazonaws.com/William%20S_Settling%20For%20Less%20When%20It%20Was%20More%20Than%20I%20Had_Feeling%20Our%20Way%20Through%20Speaker%20Jam%202_05-16-09.mp3 35232153.6 audio/mpeg}

I thought that the filenames may be to long, but all my posts are this way and they all work when manually checking the feed in iTunes, so I didn't think that was the issue. Some of them are shorter filenames.

Ideas?

@mody I'm willing to take a look. Send an email to contact at jlleblanc dot com and we'll talk.

@jonathan
Two things:

The number 35232153.6 should be the number of bytes in the file, so a decimal might throw off some readers.

The length of the filename should not matter, but the spaces (%20) might be causing issues.

OK, I just used the Google converter to get the filesize in bytes. ha ha. I'll round to the nearest whole number. Also, I'll rework the filenames so there's no spaces and post back here when I can get all that done. Thanks for the continued support.

Just an update.

I renamed all my files to not have any spaces(%20) in the filenames. And just removed the decimal and trailing numbers from the size in bytes.

So the enclosures now look like this:

Code:

{enclose http://12steprecovery.podcasts.s3.amazonaws.com/William-S.mp3 35232153 audio/mpeg}
I just resubmitted to iTunes and it didn't error out, but it did say it would be pending review, so I think that it's working... ha ha I'll post if it gets picked up for real. I'm going to search on where I can format the feed to include a thumbnail image, but since I'm typing here, if anyone knows haw to get a thumbnail image for the feed, please let me know. thanks! So to review, I have the Podcast Suite working on Joomla 1.5 and I'm offloading my .mp3s to Amazon S3 Pretty Sweet
