We had a total of four tracks - 3 for the introduction and one track for the actual podcast. When we had finally taken out all the "ums", "uhs" and deep breaths - We were ready to export the recording to iTunes.
You should note you will have two files in iTunes at this point with the same name. One will be the original and the other the new MP3 file. It will make it easier to pull off the correct file. Once you have converted the file to MP3 format it is ready to be dragged out of iTunes and then uploaded to your website.
Side Note: We should also point out to anyone that is using their iPod with a voice recorder to create a "podCast", that you will need to convert that voice memo recording into an MP3 this same way before bringing that recording into Garageband for editing.
If you try to take it directly from your iPod into Garageband it will not play correctly. If at this point you are not sure about how to create a MP3 recoding - No worry - Visit our "How to" page. We have links to some great sites that can help both Mac and Windows users put together a MP3. With most using free software. Of course we will continue to add more links as we find other sites we considers of value. If you would like to recomend a site send an e-mail to rob podcast I just discovered PodCasts last week and have been listening to yours, Adam Curry's and others.
I mentioned the technology to my pastor this morning and how we could enable people to listen to the message in a podcast while they are on the move. I used your tutorial and built a feed. Thanks again - Richard Hey, Just wanted to thank you for demystifying some of the process of podcasting. I was Googling RSS creation and came across your site and the early podcast and text you wrote about the subject, and then in an Adam Curry post I was linked to your ID explanations. Todd maffin also did a good one a couple of weeks ago.
I've got the bug, and have been listening to heaps of podcasts since about October last year got ADSL specifically so I could download 'em. XML file to. Thanks for being here! I am still cornfused though. Not about the code per se, but about the XML. OK, admittedly I'm way behind the techno curve. I haven't built a web site in years. As such I fear there probably isn't much I can do until I do, so let's assume I will be on OS 10x unless there are still some possibilities with my present OS.
I've read lots of tutorial sites and articles on Podcasting, including yours, that stop short of explaining how you're supposed to get the XML INTO your web page. Everyone just says "upload your file to your site". Well, when I do that, and then look at the page in IE 5. I see the code itself, not a proper page display. Others talk about MovableType, etc. SO, I'm trying to make this work with what I have.
And if I do everything the pundits say to do with the codes like title, description and enclosures tags and then run it through Validator or FeedBurner, I get Not Valid results and all kinds of errors, typically that the wrong MIME type is used, HTML is wrong or can't be served, etc.
What gives? What do I do???? Everyone says it's easy but for me it hasn't been. Instead, sign up with a media hosting service and place your audio files on a website set up on their site or on your own website. You may get a free website when you sign up for media hosting, and this is good for a hobby podcast. You can then submit your podcast to different directories so people can find you, listen, and subscribe.
Listeners can subscribe to your show through RSS. List the URL on your webpage to make it easy for them. Write down bullet points , or even a script, but steer clear of reading straight from your notes. Figure out your sign-off ahead of time. Now that you know how to make a podcast the next step is to find a host. RSS Podcasting provides everything you need to host a podcast.
