Hi! |
Hey @madiele sorry for the delay: https://gist.github.com/jordantgh/7a19a1974b0e23256db81d829593ed32 |
Thanks, seems like the feed is generated without issues, I smell this is iTunes being picky with something in it. Since I don't have a mac I don't know if I can test this, I hope the windows version of iTunes is similar enough... I don't know when I will be able to work on it, in the meanwhile I'll put an help wanted tag on it, if any one with a mac wants to help trying to find the issue. I imagine the reason is that iTunes requires some field that is currently missing from the rss |
FWIW I experience this issue on the Windows version of iTunes anyway. Don't know whether it would work on macOS. BTW, it also didn't work for me on PocketCasts on my phone, while working on Apple Podcasts. That's potentially a separate issue, but, maybe it's related to a problem on my end. |
Wait, could it be that you are serving the podcast via http instead https? Many client are very picky about it |
Ah, no, my website at least is https - it seems to be reflected in the generated RSS:

That's right, I had other people mention pocket cast not accepting the rss and in those cases it was alway them serving it via http or inside their local network, but your case seems different |
These are some observations from ChatGPT after pasting in the feed and some (old) guidelines from https://rfwilmut.net/notes/podcast.html:
I am not sure what is seeing to be wrong with the |
should be fixed in the beta image in your compose change latest to beta and see if the episodes show up now the problem was with the way I was generating the url, since they were not ending in .mp3 itunes would not recognize them. I hope this fix does not break other clients 🤞 I'll close the issue but let me know if you notice something weird, I want to make sure this change does not break other stuff before the next release |
Not only fixed on iTunes, but also Pocket Casts. Wow, well done! 🥳 EDIT: Lemme not be too hasty RE Pocket Casts, since it actually only worked with one podcast so far and not others. But I don't need that functionality anyway, personally. Cheers! |
app version: 1.1.0
issue description:
Logs do not seem informative. All of the podcasts are visible in iTunes, but the feeds are empty. When I select "Refresh Podcast" in the iTunes menu for each feed, nothing changes on the UI, but I get logs like this:
