Title: Amiga Game Intro Podast
Post by: twilson on April 13, 2006, 01:27:11 PM
After the success of the Amiga Demo Podcast and at the request of a number of people in various forums, I have started the Amiga Game Intro Podcast.

You can subscribe, as with the demo podcast, to either an H.264 or a DivX video feed.

The first intro is Another World by Delphine Software.



Head on over to Amiga Demo Podcast (http://www.amigademopodcast.com) and check it out, let me know what you think.

If you wouldn't mind, also digg the article at digg.com (http://digg.com/gaming/Amiga_Game_Intro_Video_Podcast_%28H.264_DivX%29)

Game intros are a nice addition to the podcasts - thanks.

Could you do something with the download names though, as AmiPodder (http://www.seal-amiga.co.uk/robert/amipodder/) has problems because the file downloaded has a different name to the name on the server (or something like that). This means that AmiPodder can't tell that the podcast has downloaded, or play it.

What exactly do you mean?

The filenames are slightly different to what is on the site so that feedburner can provide me with statistics on the different files downloads.  Do you have any problems with the "Demo Podcast"?

It must have been a lot of hard work. Thanks for the files.

Well, for example when I update the Amiga Demo Podcast channel, the new file is shown as AmigaDemoPodcast_DivX.divx?d=11 , but the file actually downloaded to hard disk is 001_9-fingers.divx , and AmiPodder can't handle this. For all other podcast sites the filenames match.

Yes, the Demo Podcast and the Game Intro Podcast have the same problem.
