Ask HN: RSS podcast alternateEnclosure Support

from the ask-hn dept.

A quick poll: those of you that consume podcasts ... can your player see/use the alternateEnclosure entries that I have lovingly added to https://www.earth.org.uk/rss/podcast.rss ? There are support stats out there, but I don't think that I believe them currently!

My client at least used the mp3 file. But other than the url to the site was nothing else.

OK, thanks! May I ask which client that is?

(There are also FLAC and Opus files there for clients that can see them, spanning 1.5 orders of magnitude in size!)

alternateEnclosure is supported by PodcastAddict, PodLP, TrueFans, and a few more out of the gate. It's a comparatively new tag, but one that will be quite interesting once more podcast apps begin using it.
