Play/download podcasts and videocasts (podcasting streams) in XBMC?

check out xpodder @ xbmc scripts, does the job very well. :agree:

hi!! if there's a way to download a xml video feed to xbmc? for example i subcribed to a videocast named digitallife tv and they have a variety of video format feeds: wmv,h.264,mpeg4,xvid how can i download these feeds to my xbmc video drive? do i need a rss script? if someone know how it is done please let me know!!! thanks!!

i'm also real intrested. anybody a idea?

i think video and audio podcast (videocast) will be a revolution of the way we listen to music, audio contents and video.

it will permits the born of amateur televisions and the ability to play interesting and completely new contents on our tv!

it would also be nice to use some tv archives, like bbc one (http://www.bbcmotiongallery.co.uk/customer/index.aspx). it would be a great revolution, i think, to play all the things we want, when we want, without spots, and without filters.

the technology is available: videocast, podcast, rss feeds, search engines, media players, but now they are not connected together and easy to use in our big televisions (personal computers are limitative and unconfortable to use with video). maybe xbmc will be the connection? i should also pay for this service.

it would be a great feature to add to xbmc, and i would like also to pay something to support the audio/video podcast feature in xbmc.

please please please, it would be very nice to add this feature!

thanks for your great work.

there's a script call xpodder, you can use it to read rss feeds and stream the embedded files, only down fall you can't download it permantly to your harddrive with this scripts, if some could add that it would be excellent, something similiar to the quicktime script. i use this to watch dl.tv

hope this helps

i would also be very interested in finding out if anyone can do this. i watch lots of vid-casts and listen to podcast. it would great if i could watch/listen to them on xbmc.
:o

yes, someone really needs to build something like

http://www.feederreader.com or democracy player into xbmc. this would be a freaking revolution!!!!

isn't democracy written in python?

i would cancel my cable asap!!!
fabian.

try urlpaster its on xbmcscripts

its a xbmc script and a pc app

you paste the url in the pc app and it starts playing on xbmc

its gr8 if you cant find stuff with other scripts

What about a feature to let XMBC collect and manage podcast subscriptions, play and save them within XMBC?

could be done via Python scripting, just noone has done it yet...
