Podcast Album Art

Postby CapnSabertooth » 21 Sep 2008, 01:41

At one point in time there was Album Art embedded in the podcast feed so that Podcast clients can get it. It seems that after the recent site update this feature fell out of the feeds. Is it possible to put it back in?

Well, other podcast clients can't get it. After looking at the XML source, it looks like you only have tags for iTunes album art. If you look at feeds like http://revision3.com/tekzilla/feed/quicktime-high-definition/ or http://feedproxy.google.com/1up/podcast there is a <image> tag which allows for generic image embedding. Most clients look for that.
