The Jukebox functionality seems to be more for streaming or shoutcasting. I think the MFOLDER page has some of the right ideas, but MFOLDER itself is just a display mod; it doesn't generate an RSS feed (and doesn't seem to have an upload feature, either).

As I posted a moment ago, I guess I'll just have to learn PHP. 😉

Just thought I'd let people know I'm still working on this. I've got as far as creating appropriately tagged feeds out of any rss feed that handles files (I test with filegals), but so far the feed still hands out a redirect url to the file, which iTunes doesn't like; I need to fix this so the actual file location is given. This will restrict podcast use to cases where media are stored as files rather than in the database, of course, but that is likely desirable anyway.

I also need to add the ability to attach files to blog entries, so the podcasting can be done out of blogs. But right now I'm bogged down in the last week of teaching a stats class online, so it will be a while before I can finish this up. I could use some help testing the resulting code. I've not worked with PHP before, and while it seems fairly straightforward, I could easily scramble something important and not realize I'd done it until too late. 😕

I would like to beta test this for you. I'll also consider how you might solve the URL problem. How should I contact you?
