Hi all!
Would you like to contribute to Drupal with a module which would be widely used (at least I think so!)? I know there exists an audio module, but I was testing it and I don't like it much...
I launch this idea to the air because my knowledge of PHP is not enough to do it by myself. There is an audio plugin for wordpress which is really nice. The module, demo, instructions and all are here. I suggest to port it to drupal.
In a way I've done it, but not really. I use this module in article content-type embedding the flash player in the article, see an example here, but I have to copy-paste the embedding code in the article every time.
I'm thinking in someone who can develop a new module which would add the "podcast" content-type to drupal.
In the new module options there should be the possibility of setting the default colors of the player (left background, text, right background, background, left icon, etc), the default directory to store the MP3, and the default text for the download link.
When you create a new podcast-content you should be able to override the default settings and choosing an MP3 to be uploaded automatically to the MP3 folder. It would be also nice to be able to write the new post in this way:
