It adds the official tags and the contact emails feedback and abuse and the chapters tag

I have created a Wordpress plugin that adds the namespace tags. If you are using power press to create your feeds and want the new namespace you can check out https://github.com/Lehmancreations/Podcast-Namespace-Wordpress-Plugin

Go to releases and download the zip and then rename the zip file to take out -1.0 and then upload to Wordpress.

@jamescridland @dave @adam @Lehmancreations Alright I found out what the issue was concerning the missing images. It was a text encoding issue in the XML document that caused the parsing of the XML to fail, and in return there was no entry to download the image. Got it corrected, I plan to download all RSS feeds and then download any missing images.

Chapters tag: Any more questions or comments on this v1.1 spec? If not, I think we're close to putting this one to bed.

@dave @adam @podcastguru @mikek999 I've just submitted a pull request with this documentation, and a PHP function. https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/PodcastImageResizer/pull/1

The version 0.0001 alpha of the RSS Builder is ready!

! It does NOT support all tags yet !

Do keep in mind that work started on it Sunday morning, so do not be too harsh on either performance and capability yet.

However I think it's a step in the right direction.

Preview here:

Any feedback on tech and usability is so very welcome. ( @adam & @dave )

@adam @martin @mitch @hypercatcher Yeah, Joe Podcaster sees his buddies at Buzzsprout, Blubrry, Fireside using transcripts and captions and cool stuff but he can't because his host won't innovate. That'll make people switch in a hurry. 😉

Chapters showing up in the API for the most recent NA episode if someone wants to test against it:

https://api.podcastindex.org/api/1.0/episodes/byfeedid?id=41504&pretty

Feed dump:

https://archive.org/details/podcastindex_dump

I just updated archive.org with the latest feed dump. I reduced to just the minimum useful column list to hopefully reduce the import issues.

@cisene See if you can dedupe from this ok.

It looks like @adam published his community chapters for the latest No Agenda episode. So those chapters are now publicly available from the HC Studio API here:

https://studio.hypercatcher.com/chapters/podcast/http:feed.nashownotes.comrss.xml/episode/http:1289.noagendanotes.com

@podcastguru I just downloaded it to try out the search. I joined the beta and changed my search engine to podcast index it never returns any results.

I submitted feedback through the app and attached a screen recording.

This shouldn't break anything existing. But, it allows us to coexist with @bjoreman's format so that his users can author MP3 file chapters and our format at the same time and just drop it in their feed when finished.

New chapters spec JSON format rough draft:

@martin @hypercatcher @dave

In the distributed editor and tools model. PI can function as an index (doh!) of tools and services.

Provide an api endpoint that can populate your tools and services menu as well as hand off pertinent information about the feed you may want to include in the dynamic feed creation.

Attract podcasters to your app and the listeners will follow.

Give the people choices. Compete on features and experience.

I would pay for this app. Regularly.

Thoughts?

@adam @hypercatcher @dave

This is an extremely interesting thought. I would love to have more two way communication with the podcast index.

I do love the idea of having "Podcast Index" hubs. (maybe a standard for it to make it less "single point of failure"

But that would mean that podcast owners could do awesome stuff in "HyperCatcher Studio" or "Podfriend Studio". Then it's sent to the index.

Then Buzzsprout/blubrry/etc. just get that information and can decide to use it in their feeds. 💥

#introduction 👋! I’m Fredrik and I make Podcast Chapters, a Mac app for adding chapter information to your mp3 files.
