RSS Feed IconJust got podcasting up and running on OrthodoxSermons.org. We used the Joomla Podcast Suite to set it up. It works pretty well, allowing different feeds based on category. The suite is nice because it minimizes the additional work necessary to get the latest sermons assigned to the right feed.

There are two disadvantages with the suite when using multiple feeds based on categories. First, the feed title remains the same regardless of category and second - iTunes will only accept one of the feeds, thinking that they are all the same. It looks like both of these issues will be resolved in upcoming releases.

Also, we used FeedBurner so that we can get stats on subscribers and it sets up the details for iTunes. I need to do the same for this blog, just haven’t got around to it yet.
Coming up next, God willing, will be online video and video podcasting.
