PODCASTS

Podcasting is the distribution of audio files over the internet using RSS syndication. A podcast is a web feed of audio or video files placed on the Internet and made available for user subscription.

Urban_D RADIO utilizes the Enhanced Podcasting technology (.m4a) to compliment the podcasts with imagery.

 

  • For this example we're looking at how iTunes™ handles podcasting.
  •  

  • Goto: Advanced / Subscribe to Podcast...
  •  

     

  • Enter the podcast URL into the dialogue box.
  •  

     

  • Click the 'GET' buttons to begin downloading a podcast.
  •  

     

  • Toggle the iTunes™ artwork & video viewer.
  •  

     

  • Note the chapter button to the right of the iTunes™ display window, just above the podcast description.
  •  

     

  • Toggle the chapter button to navigate the podcast's chapter breaks.

 

Note: You can burn Urban_D RADIO Podcasts (.m4a's) to a CD from within iTunes™, which will automatically split-up your compilation into seperate tracks based on each podcast's chapter breaks.

.m3u PLAYLIST FILE

.m3u (MPEG Version 3.0) is a file format that stores multimedia playlists. It was originally implemented by Winamp™, although it is now supported by many applications, including Windows Media Player™ & iTunes™.

One common use of the .m3u file format is for easy access to Internet streams and Internet radio listening.

Downloading any one of Urban_D RADIO's .m3u files will allow you to import Urban_D RADIO artists' tracks into your preferred media player or iTunes™ music library.

Save the .m3u file to your desktop and open it with your preferred media player. iTunes™ users: create a new playlist, and simply drag the .m3u into iTunes'™ main window.

 

  • Create a new playlist.
  •  

  • Toggle the iTunes™ artwork & video viewer.
