I am not able to download the last two podcasts on iTunes. Can you tell me if there is a problem with them? Thank you.

More info, please

That's strange. I've been able to pull down the last couple without a problem.

Can you provide some more detail. iTunes version, windows version, any errors. Also, try refreshing the feed and trying again. And, if you haven't rebooted since the error came up try rebooting.

My bad...I think...

Hey there...
I think this is my fault...although I'm not 100% sure. I'm going to try and remedy it.

About 2 episodes ago, I got a new MacPro (yahoo!) and started doing my podcast encoding on there...so, I had to reset my encoding settings. When i compared old files with the new ones just now, I noticed that for some reason, the new ones said "Mpeg-1 Layer 3" instead of "Mpeg-2 Layer 3". To my knowledge, these are different specs of the MP3 format, and the latest one may not be compatible with your player for some reason (due to your particular setup).

So, I think I've hunted down the correct setting, and I'm going to try and replace the old episode files with re-encoded ones. But, I donno if I can promise this soon...I can't just reupload the files..the entire episode needs to be re-created.

I'll make sure this is fixed for new episodes, and will make an attempt to fix the last 2. Thanks for the heads up...I never would have seen that difference otherwise.

Love the Widget!

I know you said who made the Widget (which I already forgot)--but they ROCK! I am so glad I found you guys. BTW, everything worked fine on my iTunes subscription and am enjoying the postcast right now.

I am finishing up my MSEE at U of Colorado and will be treking eastward this summer and am excited you are having a conference I can stop by.

Kudos for the free press with Apple and putting quality back into Christian art.

South African iTunes store issue - URL needed

Hi there,

I tried to subscribe to the Podcast but it iTunes keep complaining that it is not yet available at the South African (ZA) store. The store just opened and I uess they haven't got everything setup yet. Could somebody please furnish me with the URL link so I can paste it into iTunes instead of trying to subscribe through the store?

I have to do this with all podcasts at the moment....

Thanks!
