This release was made possible thanks to your support and contributions!
@peertube does this update fix the fact that the artist field is missing in the RSS feed for Apple Podcasts ?
@aroom We're not aware of such a problem, can you paste the related github issue URL?
@AudraTran @peertube @aroom mind posting a link? I'll follow up and write a github issue for this if you can share the details
@AudraTran @peertube @aroom hmm seems @Chocobozzz closed this issue this last month: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/issues/4734 I wonder if this has actually been fixed yet though
@liaizon @peertube @aroom @Chocobozzz It has not. I grabbed a random feed from framatube (7.1) and plugged it into a validator and it still doesn't pass.
@AudraTran @liaizon @aroom @Chocobozzz Hi,
If you use the podcast feed instead of the classic video feed, it will pass: https://www.castfeedvalidator.com/validate.php?url=https://framatube.org/feeds/podcast/videos.xml?videoChannelId=332
@peertube @Chocobozzz Well the last question I asked in the post linked above was where the podcast feed is and I received no response. If it's the podcast 2.0 plugin feed, I tried that and it failed as well. I may not have it set up properly but I also couldn't find any documentation on how to set it up..?
@AudraTran @Chocobozzz The podcast feed URL in this example is https://framatube.org/feeds/podcast/videos.xml?videoChannelId=332
You have the feed autodiscovery enabled on the channel page: https://framatube.org/c/framablog.audio/videos
But it seems we still need to improve the podcast feed discovery, maybe using a button in the interface :)
@peertube @Chocobozzz "You have the feed autodiscovery enabled on the channel page", Sorry, I don't understand this sentence and I don't see any feeds on the linked page?
@AudraTran @Chocobozzz It's a feature allowing web browser to display available RSS feeds on a specific page. Unfortunately some of them removed the feature :/ You have to install a plugin on firefox for example: https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/awesome-rss/
@peertube @Chocobozzz I see, so there's absolutely no way to get the podcast feed from the PeerTube UI?
@AudraTran @Chocobozzz Not yet, but we plan to add one in a future version!
@peertube @Chocobozzz Thank you, I was able to successfully upgrade Peertube, find the link, and get it added to Apple. I definitely think that podcast link should be more visible, though. Especially when you advertise it in your release notes.
@peertube @Chocobozzz Here's another fun one. Spotify apparently only supports video podcasts if you upload them directly to their platform! Is there an audio-only feed?
@AudraTran @Chocobozzz Can you paste the link of your feed?
@peertube @Chocobozzz Would prefer not to, that's why I edited it out. Just would like to have an audio-only feed to add to Spotify, if possible.
