Podifier Update Supports 1-Click Podcast Standard

Red Square has been involved in the discussions regarding the development of a standard methodology for invoking a One-Click Subscription. Podifier 1.03 now provides support for the agreed One-Click standard and generates the required .RSS file.

One-Click Subscription describes the method of subscribing to a podcast RSS feed by just clicking a link in a web page. An application, such as iPodder, installed on the user's computer will be invoked by the user's web browser when the link is clicked. The application is then able to add the selected podcast feed to the user’s subscription list.

"In addition to providing .RSS support, we also have added a number of other improvements," said Mr Redhead. "Among them is the ability to save a file locally as opposed to ftping it to a server and the option to upload video files using Podifier."

Launched in April to an enthusiastic response from the podcasting community, Podifier was the first, all-in-one tool designed to simplify the publishing of podcasts. It is a simple-to-use application that automates “in one application“ the creation of an RSS feed and the association of one or more MP3 files. It also includes the FTP application to upload them to a server.

“We are extremely pleased with the reaction to Podifier after its initial release in April, said Tony Redhead. The number of downloads and feedback from users throughout the world has encouraged us to continue its development and incorporate more features.
