Trying to embed external podcasts on a 1.5 / MediaMogul site.

    • In the past, I used a plugin called botPOD for a Joomla 1.0.11 site, and it worked great.
      I simply added a bit of code to my content, and the podcast showed up and started playing in a variation of mp3player, with the podcast play list in a scroll-box. The player could even be customized with background image, colors, etc.
      The code was easy, and it worked for a .xml and .rss extensions:
      {pod}http://podcast_url_here.xml{/pod}

      Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work in 1.5, and only the code shows up.
      The plugin is no longer available at the Joomla extensions site, and when I asked at the Joomla forums a few days ago, nobody replied.

      Has anyone managed to get botPOD working in 1.5, or do you know of a way I can host related external audio podcasts on my site?
      Thanks.

    • you could always add the podcast to Odeo.com (if it's not already there). Then use the Odeo plug-n-play player to deliver it on you site. It's easily customizable, and will do exactly what you described. And it's free.

      Thank you for the suggestion.
      I've considered it, and if I can't get botPOD to work, I may be forced to go that route.
