Video / Audio Podcast

If I go to Music -> Podcast I can listen but not watch video podcasts. If I go to Video -> Video Podcasts I can't listen to audio podcasts. I wish there is a top level Podcast option that can do both so I don't have to switch menus when switching between video/audio podcasts.) There doesn't seem to be a way, is there?

I'd be happy if they each had their own list and not mixed together in the audio list. If I want an audio podcast, I have to scroll through all the videos to get there! Seems to me keeping them in their own respective list would be more productive.

Can you filter iTunes search results by video or audio podcasts?

I have been searching for hours and haven't found a definite answer. Anyone know if this is possible?
Can you filter iTunes search results by video or audio podcasts?

I'm having the same problem. I go to Podcasts/Video Podcasts/News and they only give the featured, favorites (whose?), etc. I want to see all video news podcasts but if I then click on see all, it drops the video classification and shows all news podcasts. The iTunes search in general leaves a lot to be desired; its not very intuitive or pleasant to use, not the usual Apple experience.

Is there anyway to seperate audio podcasts from video podcasts?

is there any way to view a listing on video podcasts tthen a listing of audio podcasts in itunes?

Does anyone know of a solution ?
The only solution to remove this data from your phone is to go nuclear: Restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes, followed by syncing your content back to your phone. ALL data on your phone will be erased, including these "phantom" email addresses. There is no other way to remove this data from your phone.

ITunes categorises my podcast as 'video podcast' instead of 'audio podcast'

I'm new to this!
When I started, I had 'select any media file' ticked on my Feedburner preferences in 'create podcast enclosures from links to'. iTunes took this and added a random video I had uploaded ages ago (as well as the audio podcasts I wanted up) and put me into the video podcasts category. Once I sorted it out, I changed my preferences to read 'audio files only', and pinged etc.
iTunes has now updated everything, however the category remains stuck on video podcasting! I can't figure out how to change this. Is there something in the XML file? I've looked all through it and can't see anything I should change!
Or is it just that iTunes will take a while to update and reflect the changes?
Many thanks for your time.

I'm getting 'Podcasts>Audio Podcasts>Video Games>GAMINGtruth' which seems reasonable. Your category tags read
<itunes:category text="Games & Hobbies">
<itunes:category text="Video Games" />
</itunes:category>
So it looks as if it's sorted itself out.

Video Podcasts Will Not Sync; Audio Podcasts Do

I recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to the ios 5. Now when I sync my iPhone to iTunes, my video podcasts will not sync. I have not changed any of my settings, and I noticed "All podcasts" is selected under Podcasts section. Audio podcasts sync fine. All was fine until I did the recent software upgrade. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

They are there. They are now under the "Video" app on the first page of your device. Seems like a pointless change to me. It took me a couple of days to find mine, too.

Submitting video & audio version of same podcast

I have both a video and audio version of a podcast to submit. Do I need to create and submit two different podcast feeds? One for audio and one for video?
Or do I add the video and audio versions as two different items under the same podcast.. or add two enclosure tags for each in the same item in the podcast?

You can do both, or all three even.
one submission for a feed containing both audio & video files. A second for audio only, and a third for video only.
If you submit more than one, try to change the name enough that the nature of the content is obvious ("podcast-name-audio and video, -audio only, -video only)

Audio podcasts going into show folders, but not video podcasts

After upgrading to iTunes 7, I've noticed my video podcasts are not going into the proper show folders, but rather just being dumped into the ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library/Podcasts/ directory. Audio podcasts are working fine though, and each get moved into their proper show folders. Its just highly annoying, because most of the video podcasts don't have descriptive names, just the date of release, so its confusing when I go to burn some off to DVD (my podcasts directory, I keep at around 10gigs, and thats just the current stuff). Its not just *.mov, but *.m4v's as well. Anyway to fix this?

I'm finding it really annoying, because its getting really disorganized.

Playing audio podcasts from my iPod on TV

I have no problem playing video podcasts from my iPod on TV, using the Apple AV cable and a scart adapter.
However, when I play an audio podcast, I hear the audio on the TV, but I don't see the accompanying visuals that are part of the audio podcast.
I tried to find a "TV on" setting for audio podcasts (similar to that used for video podcasts) but couldn't.
Can anyone help/advise?
Thanks in advance!

I belive your Ipod is operating normally!
I belive the only time you'll get a visual is when your playing back Video, Music video and Video podcast.
There are no visuals output to Tv for audio programs;only on the Ipod itself!

Videos and podcasts wont download

I've downloaded Lost tv show from iTunes and some other podcasts too but they wont download onto my iPod nano no matter what I do everything else seems to be working please help me I'm going crazy. are the tv shows just something I have to watch on my computer or what?

TV shows and video podcasts won't display on the nano. To watch those you either need to use iTunes on your computer, or you need to get a video iPod.
Audio podcasts should work just fine on your nano.

Audio Podcasts in Smart Playlists

I have a smart playlist that collects all my unheard audio podcasts sorting them by release date. This makes it easy to listen in the car, etc. This smartlist works perfectly within iTunes, listing only unfinished audio tracks. I also have a version for video podcasts only.
Since upgrading to iOS 4.2.1, the audio only version of this smartlist shows up empty on my iPhone. The "video only" version still works as designed.
If I go to "podcasts", all desired episodes are there on my phone, just not in this list. I get the "no content" page as described in many blogs and forums. If I connect the device to iTunes and browse to the synced list the items are listed there. I've even played a track from that playlist on my device within iTunes as suggested.
Alas, I still get no content in this playlist on my iPhone. Everything else works fine.
I have also:
deleted and recreated the smart list
created a "static" list with a podcast file, which syncs content correctly.
Suggestions appreciated.
thanks

Now that that is out of the way, I started playing with the three check boxes at the bottom. Checking "limit to N items selected by least recently added" resolved my issue.
Thanks!!

HELP! Audio Podcast Marker Image Being Compressed to Mangled Blob

I am trying to create an audio podcast in STP2.
I add an image for the Marker by selecting "Image Source Other" and select a 2444x1583 jpeg image. The image shows up in the preview box and it looks good. I activate Show External Video (^V) and the image looks perfect.
However as soon as I select any tab, track, whatever... and the image preview box disappears, and I then come back to the marker image preview, the image has now been processed and compressed to a completely unrecognizable blob! If I go ahead and export the podcast, the marker image is displayed in iTunes looking exactly like the mangled image in STP and has been reduce to 53Wx35H pixels!!!
This mangling also occurs with the Episode image, although it actually does not even get exported to the final podcast.
To create the podcast I make sure the file type is AAC/Podcast File > Podcast > Enhanced (Images).
Can someone PLEASE help me figure why the images are being mangled and how I can get a full quality marker image displayed?
BTW - I have tried various file formats including PDF and PNG and the results are the same - ALWAYS a 53Wx35H pixel image.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
ASIDE - I created the same podcast in Garageband 09 and the images are Crystal clear. However, the marker image ALWAYS gets distorted form wide screen format to square, so that it become useless for distribution.
TIA for anyone that reads this and responds.

OK - Got It Figured Out!!! Woo Hoo!!
I am able to do exactly what I want in Compressor... go figure!!
1. Select "AAC for Audio Podcast" preset.
2. In the Encoder Audio tab, select "Enhanced Padcast (m4a file)"
3. Change "Fit marker images within" to "1280" by "1024"
4. Add Chapter marker and edit
5. Change Type to "Podcast"
6. Select Image "From file" and select the HR file - could drag from Finder as well.
7. Save
8. Submit (took about 30 seconds to run)
Viola!! A nice, tight, small, HR slide show; 5 minutes long and ONLY 4.5 MB - about .1 MB larger than the audio alone! The entire process (once the new preset is saved) takes less than a minute - as long as you know the time code for the marker image placement.
Took a weekend to figure out, but well worth it!
Off to make the Client VERY happy!!

Audio Podcasts are clipped

I've noticed a problem with the audio podcasts I subscribe to in iTunes. The end of each podcast is clipped off. I'm judging about 2 seconds worth. There's not that much left at the end of the podcast (other than contact information, and that's frustrating enough), but this should not be happening. Is anyone else having the same problems or know of a fix?

Muse,
It happens with ESPN Radio, MacCast, all the ones I subscribe to from NPR and almost ALL of the ones I subscribe to from individuals. It only seems to affect audio podcasts and not video (as far as I can see). I've been guessing the problem was in iTunes or in the downloading process. I have updated iTunes and QT to the latest versions, and I keep them updated through Software Update.

How to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune?

Can anyone tell me how to manage Music Videos and Podcasts of my iPod manually in iTune? Because I can't see the Music Videos and the Podcast section in iTune under Device when my iPod is connected to my computer. Thanks

iTunes doesn't have a separate *Music Videos* section. In iTunes these are just part of the main Music library. To manually drag a music video to yout iPod drag it onto the iPod or a compatible playlist. To remove, look for it in Music on the iPod and delete.
I think podcasts only work properly when placed on the iPod via the sync tabs. If you manually drag and drop then the files may get treated as general audio & video files.

HT3281 I downloaded an audio podcast on iPad2 using iTunes and can't find it

I've used iTunes on Mac, on PC on iPhone. I downloaded a single episode of an audio podcast over wifi on my new iPad2 using iTunes. progress bar finished but there is no obvious place to tap to play the file and in fact I can't find the file to play it. Podcast icon at the bottom of the home screen on iTunes just leads me to the main page of featured Podcasts. I can't find my way to my Library or this particular file that I just downloaded.
Can someone help an iPad newbie find a single audio podcast file that I just downloaded? Where did iTunes put it?? Not in music, not in podcasts not in audiobooks. It's all "featured" and "charts" and if I go to "Downloads" there is a single link to "ITunes Store Terms and Conditions" . ***.
This is so non-intuitive and honestly coloring my new iPad experience very poorly. Why Apple makes the layout and interface so different on devices is part of my problem but not my question. I listen to a lot of Podcasts and wanted it to be an easy to version of iTunes like I'm used to on my Mac and PC. Why is it so crazily different looking? So frustrating as I evaluate whether I keep this gaget.
thanks in advance

So I leave one app and go to a different app named "Music" to listen to an audio podcast? If I download a video podcast do I go to videos" app?
That is exactly where you go to watch a video podcast. Since that thought struck you after I told you where the audio podcasts are - doesn't it seem to make sense to you? Audio in the Music app - Video content in the Videos app?
New users want to play their music and videos in iTunes on the iPad because that is where they play that content on their computers. That's a natural assumption and that is where the confusion starts. iTunes on the iPad is simply a link to the store - not the media player like it is on the computer.
After two years of using iDevices every day, I am used to the way that they work - but I tend to agree that knowing how iTunes, the Music App and the Videos app work - is not the most intuitive design for a lot of new Apple device users.
And to top it all off - The iPad keeps changing with every new iOS release. In the previous iOS - the Music App was the iPod app. When it changed to the Music App, it confused new users even more.
There is a free iPad user guide book available in the iBook Store that is a fairly comprehensive manual. It is certainly worth downloading. Honestly, I have picked up tons of knowledge on this support site, by fumbling and fooling with the device by myself, and by relying on one of my best friends - Google!

Instant Message Application with Video/Audio to connect MSN & Skype Users

Hi,
Sorry if this has already been a topic, but I wasn't able to find a clear answer. I'm trying to setup an instant messaging service that will allow me to use video/audio conferencing. My friends and family use MSN messenger and also Skype. I'd ideally like to use one service that enables video/audio conferencing in which I can contact my MSN and Skype contacts and be able to contact them (with IM and video) with this service. Please let me know if any such thing exists that fulfills these requirements.
Thanks,
Brian

Check out iVisit. Both parties have to install it though, and it doesn't work together with MSN and Skype. It's simply a solution for Macs and PCs to communicate via audio/video.
