FEATURE REQUEST: Ability to use media enclosures (ie play podcasts in the feed) #30

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Subscribe to a podcast
2. Look at a feed item with audio enclosed
3. The audio is not visible either as a media player or download.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected to see a media player at the bottom of the feed item. This
should be very easy for some formats at least with the HTML5 audio/video
tags...

Sorry about being labled a "defect". I couldn't see anywhere to change this 
setting...

It is interesting and now I'm hacking the engine for podcasts.
Do you know any good audio/video players? I know one but it's not free (. It 
will be 
better if it is all in one.

How about FlowPlayer (flowplayer.org). The homepage only talks about video, but 
you
can use it for audio, too. See the example at
http://flowplayer.org/demos/plugins/flash/audio.html (I'm sure you could use a 
1px
image of black, or no .jpg at all).

It's GPL and also looks nicely flexible.

I've made some modifications.
for testing you can download project from svn repo
http://svn.legh.ru/rsslounge/tag/1/
login/password: read/read

1) it can't be migrate from previous version - you need to install it again
2) it isn't a release - there is may be bugs (for example I'm not sure about 
images)
3) media content doesn't downloading to the server for now - it's playing from 
source 
server
4) only the English language - it will be need a translation
5) for playback I've used 
       http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player
    it's free for non-commerce, but it is better to use a special player for audio 
and html5 player for video (I've found some but they are not work stable for 
now)

How it works - add a new feed using 'A RSS Feed for Podcasts' (or audio/video 
podcast 
if they didn't detect automatecly) and at the top of the news item must be a 
player.

I will not add this modification in rsslounge. I'm think applications like 
iTunes are more suitable for this purpose. But feel free to over a fork with 
podcast support.
