Hey guys,

Sorry if this has been asked before, I searched and couldn't find anything.

Love the podcast but it seems like whoever was putting them up on iTunes has stopped doing so. The most recent one on there is still "A Man Without Honor," the Prince of Winterfell review wasn't even up yet. And when they were being put up, they were being put up several days late, like on the Friday or Saturday afterwards.

I was wondering, since the podcast is put up in flash format, is there anyway it could also be posted on the site as an MP3 file or downloadable link? (Since iPhones and other apple products don't support flash) That way apple users would be able to listen to it on their phones now that the iTunes has stopped updating.

Thanks!

They are working on a solution to the iTunes problem. This has been discussed in the thread for episode 79 and I think the one for episode 80.

I download the episodes on iTunes and I've got all of them. Are you all subscribed because when I look at the store page for the podcast A Man without Honor is the last one but I still get the newer episodes automatically.

Don't worry too much. If it is too much work, don't do it. I just asked if there is already a way to do that.

Oh wow I never thought of that, I absolutely never go into iTunes on my computer and always just download things directly onto my phone after I roll into work that morning. (and I never quite figured out how to subscribe to things via the iPhone itself, not sure if thats possible or not) I just opened up iTunes and subscribed and now I got it! Sweet, thanks for the tip!

No problem. I usually just download them off my Ipod as well but then the newer episodes stopped showing up so I checked iTunes on the computer and they were there.

I'm really confused with what people are saying about itunes. I use it to dl the episodes and they have been coming out fine. Their is a little lag dl, if I dl when it 1st comes out but other than that its not been a problem . They have been coming out right when they show up on the site.

If you are subscribed to the podcast in iTunes, the episodes should download automatically pretty quickly after they are released, within the hour if you set that in your settings. If you go to iTunes store there maybe up to a 6 day delay and you have to manually click download. But a lot of people prefer the second option :?:

hi mimi, amin, whoever is the real administrator of this board - i just found this app: http://www.touchbb.com/ / http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/touchbb- ... 52610?mt=8

it needs the "installation" - of a special file to the forum-directory, see: http://www.touchbb.com/index.php?get=script

If you could do that (it does not cost anything as far as I know) that would be great. Your listeners/fans could buy the app for 0.79$ and enjoy the board without using the browser/zooming...

I found something for Android-users:

There is an app called ForumTouch on the Android-Store/Market. It can handle phpbb boards out-of-the-box as far as the description goes (can not try it out)...

Hey all!

I'm having trouble accessing the forums from the Touchbb app - it hasn't worked for a few weeks. Did something on the site change? It won't let me log in (only shows the 4 topics you get when you are signed in as 'guest'.)

Any ideas admins? Cheers.

I also have the same problem - I think it first started when the VoK-subcategory was added.

Ahh yes this seems about right time wise. :) They might have accidentally changed whatever made the app compatible. :)
