Video Podcasting

Currently only audio podcasting is supported, but I am looking into the best way to effectively provide video podcasting capabilities.

Cheers,

Would love it if you add Video podcasting ??

I would also love it if you were to add Video Podcasting.

All,

I think I might have found a solution (built-in to the plugin) to change the audio player to a video player. I found this filter reference.

So I added the following code to my functions.php (should be moved to a custom plugin in the future):

function replace_ssp_audio_player_with_video_player( $player, $src ) {
    $player = wp_video_shortcode( array( 'src' => $src, 'preload' => 'none' ) );
    return $player;
}
add_filter( 'ssp_audio_player', 'replace_ssp_audio_player_with_video_player', 10, 2 );

The would work to change the audio player to become a video player, but there’s a lot more to video podcasting than just the player. The admin UI needs to be modified significantly and the RSS feed will need to be modified too – I will never release a half-baked feature, so I need to work out the best way to do this all before adding video support.

That being said, I don’t really have a stack of time to work on it right now, so even when I do look into it I don’t know when that will be exactly.

I wouldn’t use the player but only need the rss support. Appreciate your approach to don’t release half baked products, take your time.

I’m pleased to say that video podcasting is now fully supported in SSP from v1.14 onwards ??
