Tracking podcast usage

Hi,
The Web site I am working for requires to know usage statistics for each of their services. We are interested in producing podcasts and promoting them through iTunes, but I cannot find anywhere that tells me how to track usage statistics through iTunes. The little I found was on Apple's Web site and I pasted that below.
Does anyone know any hacks or scripts to track usage statistics through iTunes? i.e. how many people are downloading, how often, etc.
We are producing daily podcasts and plan to have an RSS feed in iTunes so the podcasts are automatically updated.
If anyone has any experience or can point me to somewhere I can read about, it would be a big help.
Thanks!
"Tracking Usage
Please note that iTunes does not provide usage statistics, because we do not host feeds or episodes. Some podcasters have created mechanisms for tracking the number of times that each episode has been downloaded. iTunes does not provide support in how to track downloads, but the following notes may be helpful:
* 302s will be followed to a depth of 5 redirects and will not update the feed URL in the directory.
* The URL before the GET-style form values (before the first ?) must end in a media file extension (e.g. mp3). To work around this, the feed provider can alter their URL from this:
http://www.podcaster.com/load.php?f=&Wipeout.php
to this:
http://www.podcaster.com/load.mp3?f=&Wipeout.mp3
Notice how it says load.mp3 instead of load.php. It should be possible to accomplish this via various means, such as web server rewrites. iTunes looks at the extension of the path part of the url, i.e. the part before the"?"."

You might want to try a service like www.feedburner.com. I like it a lot for two main reasons. The first is it gives me a feed to share which is very easy to rememeber (feeds.feedburner.com/bookhobbycom). The second is that they give you free statistics which are updated daily. In fact, they show how long and when the last 25 live hits happened as well. Feedburner will also allow you to track stats on yur websiet with the addition of a small html coding. Good luck!

  • Tracking memory usage

    I have run to a memory limitation problem with my MIDP 1 application. So I'm trying to track memory usage. However I found out that WTK memory monitor gives me different results then Runtime memory functions (by calling Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory()). In particular, Runtime.freeMemory shows less available heap dynamic memory than WTK memory monitor.
    How can I then find out what is taking up the memory space that WTK memory monitor hides from me?
    Also calling Runtime.freeMemory at the very begining at the start of my application shows me that there is roughly 90KBytes of heap memory in use. What is taking up this space?
    Thanks for any hints!

    Of course I did that. I wouldn't have gotten correct results with Runtime.freeMemory if I hadn't done that.
    But thanks for the reply ;-).

  • Is there a way to track Admin usage of ANM

    Is there a way to track Admin usage of ANM (application network manager)?  We have a few servers running the ANM application.  Each ANM server points to/manages ACE blades (in the datacenter where the server resides).  I would like to understand how much the ANM gui is used for each of the servers.  I have looked through the GUI for some sort of report but wasn't able to find one.  Cisco ACS has the "Adminstration Audit" report which shows all admin activity of the application per admin user (per ACS server).  Is there an equivalent report for ANM?
    In addtion I would like to know how much of the ACE config activity is spawned via CLI versus the ANM gui.
    thanks in advance,

    Just click on:

    and enter your ID.  When it locates your iPod, it will allow you to turn on an alarm signal on your iPod which should let you find it.

  • Possible for Solution Manger to track Transaction usage?

    Dear Experts,
    I want to track the usage of SAP transactions by the users in some systems over 1 year period. Based on some online reading, I can see the 2 options:
    1. Via SM19 Security Audit
    2. Via STAD (short term only)
    However, with all the system monitoring features brought in by Solution Manager, is there a way to use Solution Manager to serve the same purpose?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Li Bin

    Whilst not specific to solman, wouldn't ST03/ ST03N be a better alternative and increase the retention period from 3 months to 13 or or so?

  • When Apple tracks your app usage for your battery is it able to track the usage of apps you've deleted off of your phone?

    Ive downloaded aops that I've ised but deleted. Is Apple able to track the usage of that apo that has been deleted?

    Usage data of individual apps is not regularly sent to Apple and you can simply opt out of sending any diagnostic or crash data.  And a deleted app certainly cannot send usage data as it is not available on the device to be used, nor can an absent app crash and generate a log report.

  • Is there an app to track internet usage of other apps?

    I know you can check your overall usage from your phone. But is there an app which tracks how much I use on specific apps, GPS, Safari, Youtube etc.?

    There are some apps in the app store that track data usage, but I don't believe they can track by app, only whether it's cellular data or WiFi. But do a search anyway.

  • Possibilité de créer un podcast à usage personnel ?

    Bonjour,
    Je voudrais pouvoir réviser à l'aide de podcasts trouvés sur un site internet. Je les ai téléchargés sur mon ordinateur.
    Je les ai synchronisés avec mon iPod, mais voilà, quand j'écoute la musique en aléatoire, je les entends, j'aimerai pouvoir les mettre à part.
    J'ai donc pensé à les mettre en podcasts ou iTunesU sur mon iPod, mais je ne sais pas comment faire.
    De plus, je ne veux pas les soumettre à l'iStore, pour pouvoir ensuite m'y abonner parce qu'ils ne sont pas de moi.
    Comment puis-je faire pour me créer un podcast à usage personnel ?
    Merci d'avance

  • Tracking internet usage-Flash AS3

    I am facing a problem how to track data usage (i.e download & upload rate) as well as to keep track of total size of downloaded content right from the establishment of net connection.Clearly explaining we have developed an application where we want to display internet usage..It would be great if someone would help in this issue....

    Thanks a ton!  Yeah, I didn't know about any of this until I had reason for legitimate concern.  People should be aware of what's available.  Someone intent on tracking you won't mind paying bluecava to do it for them...
    I'll definitely be updating my browser as well.  However, Lawrence, I did find during my research that bluecava DOES NOT operate based on cookies.  It uses your IP address to consistently track patterns of behavior, even
    within multiple devices of one household, so that deterring the tracking is not as simple as turning off cookies to a site.  (See screenshot below from bluecava.com)
    If you go to the bluecava site's privacy policy, you can actually opt-out, however, blogs have criticized bluecava for not explaining exactly what happens when a user opts-out.  It may be beyond our control...

  • Tracking VPN usage

    Is there an snmp mib to track VPN usage for edge to edge or edge to host Vpn's on Asa or iOS firewalls? Down to individual tunnels?
    Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPad App

    Cheers Jolly,
    Yeah thats where I got the 0.7GB and assume that it is the tial usage from the start of the month. I am hoping that someone can know of a usage program that you can install to on every PC on your netwrok and show toal usage, install of going around every PC and checking it. it isn't a hasle but there should be something to do this!
    This won't account for other devices such as my xbox, phone, etc so thought I'd bounce a post or two on a few forums to see if anyone had a way of doing this. If I find an answer I will certainly share.

  • Tracking Memory usage on iOS using the Stats class

    I've been checking memory usage on an app I'm developing for iOS using the Stats class https://github.com/mrdoob/Hi-ReS-Stats ( http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/mobile/WS4bebcd66a74275c3-315cd077124319488fd-7fff.html#WS 948100b6829bd5a61637f0a412623fd0543-8000).
    I added the Stats class to my project and redeployed and, yikes, memory usage reported in Stats creeps up (pretty slowly) even when there's nothing happening in the app (just showing a loaded bitmap).
    To try and track down the issue I created a project with a test class that extends Sprite with just this single call in the constructor :-
    addChild( new Stats() );
    I deployed it to the device to check that it didn't gobble any memory.
    But I was Suprised to watch the memory usage creep up and up (to approx 5) before some garbage collection kicked in and takes memory back down. I left it running and then it crept up again to over 7.5 this time before being kicked back down to just below 3.
    So 2 related questions that I'd appreciate any feedback/observations/thoughts on :-
    1 - Is this normal (i.e. memory creeping up when there's nothing other than Stats in the project) ?
    2 - What is the best way to monitor memory usage within an app ? Is Stats good enough - is Stats itself causing the memory usage ?
    All the best guys !

    Also see thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4280020#4280020)
    My conclusions are :-
    - If you run an app and leave it idle, memory usage gradually creeps up (presumably as memory is being used to perform calcs/refresh the display etc)
    - Periodically the garbage collection kicks in and memory is brought back down
    - This cycle could be in excess of 5 mins
    Run with your real app and memory will increase and be released much more rapidly/regularly.
    - It's probably worth performing initial checks by running on your desktop to iron out any initial problems

  • I am trying to find an app that will track the usage on my iphone with times and dates to see what was accessed on my phone when I was away from it and what if anything was done eg deleted messages viewed facebook etc?

    Hi! I am trying to find an app that with track everything that is done on my phone with times and dates? im not really woried about call usage and texts sent I need it to view what has been done - for example:
    Messages received
    Messages deleted
    Facebook viewed
    Messages viewed
    Internet viewed and what?
    I just have an issue with someone using my phone - I used to track this through double clicking the home button and roughly knowing in what order I had been on things but they have sussed this one!
    Thank you!!

    No way to do that on a non-jailbroken iPhone. Why don't you just passcode protect your phone? That way no one but you can use it...unless they know your passcode.

  • Track Asset Usage by Projects

    We need to track our Fixed Asset usage and profitability. We are a Project centric organisation and need to track which assets are being used by which projects and allocate the asset and it's maintenance cost to projects. We then have to review the utilisation/profitability of this asset by comparing the cost to the revenue generated by it. We use Oracle Projects, Accounts Payables and Fixed Assets modules. Can we achieve this using the current modules. Is there a specific module in Oracle EBS which performs this function.

    Under system information there is usually some sort of computer id or name but even if I could record user name of the person that loged in that would work to. I don't need to know for sure who did or didn't open it, just a general idea of where it has been.

  • Tracking podcast download with feedburner feed?

    Hello, I'd like to track the amount of downloads of my itunes podcast. If I use a feedburner feed for my itunes podcast feed will feedburner track the amount of times the podcast is downloaded in itunes?
    thanks

    I believe that FeedBurner does offer this sort of facility but it's something you would need to take up with them. I'm sure their web site will shower you with this sort of information.

  • Track AAR Usage in CDR records

    Hello,
    Is there any way to track in CDR records the usage of AAR. whereas I can run a report to show usage of AAR?
    I recently set up a client with AAR and they are asking if there is a way to see how many calls are using AAR versus calls staying On Net within the cluster.
    Thanks,
    Chuck

    Hello,
    I have found that there is a redirect reason code field in a CDR. A value of 129 is used for AAR but I see no way to search for CDR's by redirect reason codes. Any Ideas?
    Thanks,

  • App to track App usage?

    I'd like to arrange my Apps in order of most used. Let's say I have Compass on the front page but I only used it once in the last month and Maps is on the last page but I use it every week. It would make more sense for Maps to be toward the front. Does anyone know of an application that will track and record the usage of applications on the iPhone and/or iPad?

    Trying to bring a dead thread back to life.
    I think an app like this would be very helpful.  As users put more and more apps on there phones, from time-to-time you can do some housecleaning by streamlining what is on your first page versus what is on your third or fourth page, or what is buried in a folder, or if you just need to delete it.
    Having an app like this is more about turning down the noise, and being able to focus on what helps you be the most productive not only for work, but for your family life and interest as well.  Sure people probably have some idea what they click on the most, but it is the apps that may be every other day or once or twice a week that you have no idea if you are really "using" or if they are just a time drain for you.
    I say, Apple, please make this app so knowbody has to worry about your terms.  Have it keep a tally of how often we are using all our apps, and for how long each app is getting our attention.
