Hi - great module, i love the screencast, everything is so well explained and easy to setup. Now my designer wants me to put the podcast to the itunes store - seems a relevant request -but how do i do that? Is there anywhere in the view I can add the necessary metadata or did i miss something completely?

I also added a link on the documentation page.

Yea - i got the setup instructions and also added the podcast successfully - but what about metadata - itunes:image, itunes:category, itunes:summary ? Should this be done from views - or where?

- basically we really want to add our logo to the podcast series in itunes store

This is something that would have to be done by the module, and it would be a nice feature. Just like having "Podcast Feed", one would have "Itunes Feed" to choose from, which would take an imagefield image as logo etc.. Or, simply make it iTunes Store compatible by default. Would this be doable?

Yes, ximo is correct. The only thing missing from the feed generated by this module that is necessary to have the podcast featured in the iTunes store is the image for the feed.

In the DTD, it is this element in the <channel></channel> element:

<itunes:image href="http://example.com/podcasts/everything/AllAboutEverything.jpg" />

I have found that using the iTunes module has worked for us. Change the Feed style to iTunes RSS and then you can enter in all the extra information. Great combination.
