Enhanced podcast fullscreen picture

I have a 30 gb photo iPod and would like to see the enhanced podcast picture in fullscreen. I have searched for a way to do this and can't find one. Has anyone been able to find out how to do this? Thanks for your help.

I think the problem is that your chapter titles are too long. If you make them shorter, they'll show up on the webpage too.
Another tip for you: I notice you have the chapter "ComicBookLover" four different times because you have four different pictures to go with it. If that's the way you want it, that's fine. But if you only want one chapter, in GarageBand, delete just the titles from the last three chapter markers. When the file is played in iTunes, the viewer will still see the four different pictures but you'll only have one "ComicBookLover" chapter.

  • Enhanced podcast (don't see chapter and pictures in podcast app on iphone or ipad)

    hi people !
    i create enhanced podcast, and try that podcast on itunes app on my pc. Everything work ok, except pictures but i know that this is bug with curent version of iTunes. Then i opet same m4a enhanced podcast in quicktime app on my pc, again everything work ok, i see chapters and i see pictures. Then i put same file on my server, i see that podcast in my podcast app on my iphone and ipad and when i stream it , i don't see pic and logo for chapters. when i scan my enhanced m4a podcast file i see that my file have: general,audio, video & menu section
    in first general section
    Format :
    M4A
    Codec ID :
    M4A
    this not working on podcast app on iphone or ipad !
    then i scan enhanced podcast file downloaded from podcast app from my iphone with working chapters and pic made with garage band on mac by someone
    and i see sections: general,audio, video and text 1 and text 2 sections (my not working does not have that last 2 , my last is menu section)
    Format :
    MPEG-4
    Format profile :
    Apple audio with iTunes info
    Codec ID :
    M4A
    look at format profile ! it says Apple audio with iTunes info !
    last thing is that i download from appstore app called Downcast, and try my enhanced podcast in that app wooow, everything work again ok when i stream, i see chapters i see pic. then at the end i download
    Podreel — Enhanced podcast authoring tool for Windows
    and try to build test podcast with that app, when i analyze enhanced podcast made with that app i see info say that podcast is made with garageband ??? this is fake tag made by podreel because podcast is made with podreel and not garage band, file made with podreel have this
    Format :
    MPEG-4
    Format profile :
    Apple audio with iTunes info
    Codec ID :
    M4A
    again format profile is same like one from that working.
    is podreel make fake tag because podcast app in iphone and ipad play exclusively enhnaced podcas make with garage band (podreel fake tag) or somebody know where I'm wrong. why my enhanced podcast don't play pics and chapters when is on iphone or ipad podcast app. i will write again that my file work on downcast app on iphone or ipad, work on pc in itunes, work on quicktime player etc work everywhere except there where i want to work in podcast app on iphone or ipad

    hehe if somebody knows something this is def you Roger about first thing with seeing pic in itunes i think that i read all possible posts on web in last 7 days and nights and this is not working on my pc with control-click (Windows) but i don't care ! i wait for apple do magic bug fixing on new itunes version. And now about main problem. iOS devices are capable displaying chapter images because this is working right now with some podcast on my phone, i give you pic example iphone 4 iOS 6.1.2
    in first pic you can see streaming podcast and chapters (little white dots on bar),second picture is first song with cover of single playing, and if you look close right from the clock zzz simbol is chapter logo, if you press it you will be see pic no.3 so this def working but working when you mad your podcast on mac with garage band ! that's why i write about format ids, tags etc

  • Enhanced Podcasts Don't Display Pictures or Links.

    Before the iOS 5 update, enhanced podcasts would periodically change pictures to match the topic or conversation amd links would appear in the upper center of the picture. Now, with the exact same podcast and episode just shows the podcast logo throughout the playback. Listening to the same podcast and episode on iTunes, the links amd pictures are fine and siplay properly. The podcast I am listening to is the Rooster Teeth Podcast (formerly known as the Drunk Tank).

  • Enhanced podcasts on iPhone not playing pictures

    I have recently downloaded a Enhanced Podcast that has several pictures that play while listening. When I play this in iTunes or on my iPod Video, it works beautifully. When I play it on my iPhone, I get no pictures.
    Is this even possible with an iPhone?? I cannot seem to get show notes about the podcast either. This seems like critical stuff left out of the iPhone

    Hello NeelsdL,
    Thanks for the question. Podcasts on the iPhone are now managed from the Podcast for iOS application. For more information, please see the following resource:
    About the Podcasts app for iOS

    Once you have the Podcasts app installed, you will be able to manage your podcasts from iTunes.

  • Enhanced podcasts: Blank white fullscreen image

    Hi all,
    I see that in firmware v1.0.2, enhanced podcasts are no supported. However, I am having trouble with a particular enhanced podcast, "History of Photography Podcasts" by Jeff Curto. When I push the center button to get the full screen cover art mode, the iPod only shows a blank white screen. My guess is the images are too large for the iPod Classic to process. However, the images are shown and do change when in the normal art/info initial play screen.
    Any ideas? Does my theory sound right?
    BTW, one can subscribe to the podcast via the iTunes Store.
    Thanks,
    Steven

    I updated to firmware 1.0.3 and now the embedded artwork/images show up in cover art full screen mode.
    Thanks Apple,
    Steven

  • Playing enhanced podcasts

    Is anyone having trouble - not seeing the images during an enhanced podcast on their ipod classic. I don't know if its something I'm not doing since my last ipod was a b/w that didn't play anything but the audio. The video podcasts play just fine - just the enhanced ones that aren't working.

    I'm not seeing the fix. Now, it just shows a music note icon and when I cycle through the different screens with the center button, the screen that should show the large picture of the artwork is just blank.
    This is occuring on the Retromac Podcast...Anyone else?
    After putting up the "FIXED" post last night, I noticed that while the feature is there, it's not as reliable as it should be (though it's certainly better than none at all). I noticed that after playing around with my iPod for a while (oh so speedy!), returning to the Macworld Podcast brought on the same behavior you described: cycling to the fullscreen album art portion of "Now Playing" only came up as blank. It only corrected itself after I had synched over new podcasts.
    So, it appears that the enhanced podcast feature (at least for fullscreen art) can get temporarily "messed up" to where the fullscreen area only shows a blank white screen. But, synching over new podcasts files (which presumably reconstructs any podcast database information on the iPod) fixes the issue... at least until the next time it messes up.
    As for no artwork at all displaying (getting the grey box and music note on the "Playback Progress Meter" Now Playing screen)... it just seems to be slow on occasion. I've been stuck on the grey box for up to 5 seconds using an enhanced podcast, but it eventually pulled in the artwork (I could hear the hard drive whirring in the iPod as it searched). Once I had to actually switch out to a different podcast for a second, and then return to the enhanced podcast to get the art to show up. As I said earlier.... the enhanced podcast features are there, they're just not as reliable as they ought to be.
    By the way, I did download an episode of the Retromac podcast (Episode 41: Left-handed Mac), it showed the enhanced podcast artwork - including fullscreen - correctly. You might need to sync over an additional podcast file to rebuild/fix the podcast database on your iPod, but it should work.

  • I can't get garageband to export!  It keeps getting stuck at 'creating chapters' when I try to export my enhanced podcast.  Please help!

    I am trying to export my enhanced podcast through garageband.  I have all the current updates.  I am on my MacBookPro 10.6.8 2.3GHz with 8GB ram.  My enhanced podcast (podcast with pictures) is about 80 mins long and I have tried exporting with everything from the lowest settings to the highest always with the same result.  I have tried deleting GB preferences.  I have tried repairing permissions to no avail.
    I hit export to disk or send to itunes.
    I select some AAC format I want (optimized for spoken podcast).
    It slowly builds the mix, normalizes, and creates chapters (yeah, it goes through the creating chapters bar to completion)
    Then it goes all candystripe on the creating chapters bar once it fills up and will hang forever (hung for 8 hours....pretty much sounds like 'forever' in my book).
    Please help...I have my podcast sitting there waiting to be used....I have tried exporting smaller chunks (by moving the end of file bar) but that doesn't work either.  Is there a way to just send the pictures and the picture start times over to imovie and work with it there?  I'd much rather work with the tools that imovie has but man that program is just a PITA to use when you want to run through 100+ pictures for variable durations (whereas it's easy to just drag and drop with garageband as you do playback).
    The file only has one stereo audio track!

    Hi notmatthew, I have exactly the same problem as you. I am trying to export a podcast about iPod X Anniversary so I need to publish it next sunday.
    It's midnight in Spain but tomorrow I will tray something I read in other post:
    w4b3l said:
    Problem solved.
    I deleted the chapters one by one, exporting it each time, until it worked. i then replaced the image (which was a .jpg and i converted to .png) with that chapter and now it works.
    Could you try it?

  • Enhanced podcast looses photos in itunes. Any ideas?

    I have been trying to several days to create an enhanced podcast with photos. When I share it into itunes I have the cover art but none of the other pictures. I am sharing it as an AAC encoder not mp3. It transfers into iweb perfectly fine, but not itunes. Any ideas?

    Please explain your problem better. There a no photos in iTunes.
    You can sync photos from your computer to your iPod via iTunes. You select in the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes what folder of photos to sync to the iPod.

  • Enhanced podcast enclosure type?

    I have created an enhanced podcast (m4b file type) for posting to my weekly podcast which is usually just mp3 audio.
    I want to make sure before I add the episode that I properly identify the "enclosure" "type" in my rss feed, as I assume this is how iTunes will properly indentify this episode as containing enhanced audio with images.
    I have seen m4a files identified as "type=audio/m4a" but I coded this as m4b since it was suggested to me that the m4b file format has broader compatibility for the use of the chapter feature.
    How should I properly identify the "type" within the "enclosure" tag for an enhanced audio m4b file containing images??
    Thanks!

  • Enhanced Podcast pics, full screen?...

    I can make an enhanced podcast, but the images on the ipod are surrounded by lots of white space. Now as a designer, normally I like white space, but in this case, I would like to fill the screen with the image (like the photos on the ipod photo and nano).
    What is the best resolution? Aspect ratio?
    Is it possible to make them bigger?
    Thanks!
    Frank

    I am VERY interested in this answer...I produce podcasts that are a series of pictures put together in GarageBand. Technically is this still a video podcast? If I try to play them in frontrow they ARE NOT full screen like TRUE video podcasts. What is the difference in the file?

  • Can I change the size of my enhanced Podcast or correct the aspect ratio

    I would like to be able to embed pictures in a Podcast that are 480x360. As a worst case, I would like them to be 320x240. Is this possible?
    When I open my .m4a or .m4b in QuickTime I see that I can adjust the aspect ratio or size. However, as far as I can determine, QuickTime will not let me save the change unless I save into a format other than m4a or m4b.
    Saving as a mov eliminates the chapter control which I want to keep.
    Does anyone know of a way to fix this limitation?
    I'd accept 480x480 if that were possible too!
    Thanks!

    Follow up information:
    The aspect ratio appears correct in a video iPod or via the iTunes interface. However, if the same file is played via QuickTime then the aspect ratio is forced to a square.
    The overall intent is to view the enhanced PodCast full screen which can be done via QuickTime. The "Now Playing" window in iTunes is too small (Clicking on it to bring up the current slide does not work as the slide is not updated concurrently with the "Now Playing" window.

  • How do I view an enhanced podcast?

    I listen to Amateur Traveller and it is an enhanced podcast where I used to see picture content when I played it on my iPhone. How do I view enhanced podcasts with the new app?

    I don't think you can anymore. Or at least, not easily. I just published my 11th episode of an enhanced podcast. Simultaneously, I updated the OS on my woefully outdated Iphone. This gave me the latest Podcast app update. As a result, I only see the Episode art and the first chapter art. After that, there are no other images shown even though my chapters are listed in the "Chapter" menu in the app. At first I thought I exported my episode incorrectly, but then I tried an older episode and had the same results. After some research, it appears that Apple has basically pulled its support for enhanced podcasts. This is evident by the fact that their latest updates of Garage Band have omitted podcast tools altogether. If you download the podcast episode into Itunes (on your laptop/desktop), you can still access the enhanced version. This is also true if you download the episode in Safari. But that doesn't make for convenient listening/watching on the go.
    Sadly, the days of enhanced podcasts seem to be numbered. I'd love to hear what other enhanced podcast creators/listeners are experiencing with the lack of support for "enhanced" podcasting.

  • Problems with enhanced podcast

    Hi,
    I have a podcast on iTunes in the music section which has many listeners.
    Currently the enhanced podcast is working fine in my iTunes locally. I created them via GarageBand, but if I upload them and refresh the xml file for iTunes and I download an episode from my iPhone, I must sync it to my iTunes before I get the picture within the link and description, very strange.
    Also, if I just want to play my episode over the iTunes Store via my iPhone the picture is not displayed correctly. There are just some fuzzy lines and that's it. This is the next problem I have to solve
    Cheers!

  • Trouble viewing enhanced podcasts

    When I am using iTunes, I can click on the album art and it displays (almost) full-screen in its own window.
    When I am watching a video in iTunes, I can option-click the small image and the movie will play (almost) full-screen in its own window.
    If I am watching an enhanced podcast (.m4b) in iTunes, the pictures change (like a slide show) at the beginning of each “chapter.” If I click one of these pictures, it displays (almost) full-screen in its own window. (So far so good...)
    Here’s my question / problem:
    When viewing an enhanced podcast in its own window, the pictures do not change in the large window. I can see the pictures still changing in the smaller “album art” window, but the only way to view the picture sequence in the larger window seems to be to click on the small image every time it advances to the new image.
    Is this right? Is there some way to watch the changing pictures in their own window?
    iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    here's been my work around solution that seems to work fine - there's probably a quicker way, so let me know.
    1. from garage band, share to disk (for better quality images, i took off the set images to 300x300 box). don't send to itunes yet. file exports as an .m4a.
    2. open .m4a file using quicktime (i use quicktime player 10.0). file uploads images, chapters, etc.
    3. save file as .mov file. (select format that works for you - i've been trying the HD 480p option).
    4. drag .mov file to itunes.
    5. sync MOVIES. play within movies.
    6. play out of the video APP.
    hope that helps. let me know if you have any better luck or other options. seems terrible that i would have to save every enhanced podcast as a .mov file.

  • Enhanced Podcasts - opitmal photo sizes

    The Nano, 4G and 5G iPods have a different screen sizes, so what's the best size for the pictures in an Enhanced Podcast?
    Also, what format is best to avoid re-compression? -- Jpeg?
    Thanks!

    I started this post thinking the 4G and nano's ratios were the same, but now I've learned different! The 5G and nano resolutions have the same ratio, ie. a 320x240 picture scaled for the nano will still fill the screen. AND, I believe I ran tests earlier that showed that a picture at a 4:3 ratio will still fill an iPod color 4G screen with no black edges (I believe the left and right edges are chopped off.)
    Anyway, the "perfect" solution would be to have three different sets of media (like this guy http://www.ipodsubwaymaps.com/) to prevent re-compression, but outside of that, if this is photos (not map info which has to be pixel perfect) create one 4:3 picture that will match either the nano's or 5G's native resolution. I'm not even certain if you should consider the 4G since, when I last checked, you couldn't get the artwork of an enhanced podcast to stay on the screen, so no one on those pods would see it anyway (unless Apple updates the firmware to handle this one day).
    To answer your other question, I believe any image you offer is going to be recompressed by iTunes to show on the iPod, so start with a nice lossless format so the algorithm has a good source to sample from, like PNG.
