![]() Sadly we lost access to the soundcloud API and were unable to find a solution for it so the UI no reflects this. We add playback rate control, please note that it is not the stablest of things but since this is also the case for other media applications that use it we're still adding it. Harbour compatibility fixes by Keeper-of-the-Keys with the help of vige from Jolla. Hopefully this feed format URL will continue to work on -4.7. Sad to see so little activity on the project. That ticket was added the same day as my complaint. I see now that someone created a similar YouTube API ticket and uploaded the video that Google sends out when people try using the old format to access feeds. Much simpler than the previous URL format that I was using before that looked like this:Īs an update to my bug ticket in the gPodder Bug Tracker system, still no reply, the ticket is still unconfirmed, and there appears to be little to no activity for a while in their Bug Tracker system. This is basically the URL of the channel you see in the browser address bar, you simply add “/feed” without quotes to the end. I did manage to get gPodder to work with a URL in this format: I may have wrongly assumed that Google announcing that they changed the YouTube API, meant that the apps had to allow for new feed content formatting. If and when the gPodder dev team releases an update that works with the new YouTube API, I will post an update here. I’ve also used Miro, and feel the same way, bloated and a resource hog. It’s very disappointing, considering how hard it is to find a podcast downloader that includes YouTube. There were numerous gPodder updates the last few months of last year, and none in 2015 so far. Since that didn’t happen, I’m guessing gPodder is not actively being maintained, and won’t be updated to resolve this soon. According to the Google statement, that was yesterday. ![]() If you write an app that works with YouTube, and that API changed, I would have expected an app that was being actively developed to get updated, or at least fixed when that functionality ends. My gut feeling is that it won’t get fixed anytime soon. No reply so far, and it doesn’t look as if it’s been looked at yet, as it is still marked as unconfirmed. I did go to the trouble of filing a bug ticket with the gPodder dev team. In the Gtk UI, there is also an "Extras" menu item that can be used The user is required to enter their own V3 API key, then YouTube feeds can be This was brought to my attention by a commenter, and those notes can be read in the comments of this post. That being to use a newer updated YouTube URL as the link to the feed. As I understand it, it’s basically the same as my workaround. I suppose I have 3 options patiently wait to see if the gPodder team update the app, find a podcast aggregator that is keeping up YouTube support, or give up on The Ben Heck Show cause it’s been a real pain in the ass jumping through hoops to watch it, now that it’s only on YouTube.įor anyone that might be interested in this topic, my gPodder bug ticket (and a duplicate from another user) was finally looked at and has been marked as resolved. So the reason I started using gPodder, is also the reason it is now a problem for me. Not long ago, The Ben Heck Show had changed it’s media delivery system to YouTube only. ![]() I’ve only been using gPodder for a short time, several months perhaps, and I switched to gPodder for the YouTube support. I personally wasn’t aware of this, and apparently neither were the developers of gPodder. They have a new YouTube API starting today. Not a good sign of things to come! A little research told me that April 20, 2015, was the last day of the old YouTube API. Instead of my weekly “ The Ben Heck Show” episode, I was provided with a silent movie from Google, telling me my “device” was basically too old.Ī quick gPodder update check showed I had the latest version. ![]() I use gPodder to aggregate my video podcast feeds and then I watch them using SageTV or XBMC/Kodi. In the mornings I like to watch my favourite video podcasts while I eat breakfast.
