Podcaster

Podcaster is a Nagare app used to convert YouTube's user channels to iTunes podcasts.

And it's powered by the wonderful Nagare framework !

Installation

 * Note that the Nagare framework needs Python Stackless in order to run
 * Using easy_install : easy_install podcaster

Launch the application

 * Launch podcaster using the command : nagare-admin serve podcaster

Basic Usage

By default, your Podcaster application will be accessible using your favorite web browser at the address : http://localhost:8080/podcaster

Simply fill the YouTube username of the person you want to subscribe, choose the video format (other formats than MP4 are untested), and submit the form.

Subscribe to a new iTunes' podcast using the generated URL and that's it !

Notes

All video formats aren't always available in a YouTube user channel. If iTunes can't download the videos, try with another video format.

This application is still at a beta stage, but feel free to give me feedback if you liked this app.

Why this app ?

I don't like watching videos using my web browser, opening multiple tabs, waiting for the player to preload data before being able to watch the video (YouTube is very slow with my internet provider). I don't like useless comments, unrelated informations, etc. I want to watch my videos, and that's all !

Some podcasts are available on iTunes but the resolution is sometimes too low for my 21'+ screen.

So I let iTunes do the job for me when I'm away.

Requirements:

• Python
