hi ng,

I'm currently looking for a free podcast-player (playing mp3 and mpg would
be sufficient) to integrate into my website, is there any free version
available
(e.g. implemented in PHP)? Is it the right way in general to try to
integrate an external player or is there a possibility to apply the player
installed on the client machine for this job?

thx in advance!

regards,
Albert

If you want to play mp3s on the server, this is the right way to go. If
you want the user to hear it, though, it needs to be installed on the
client machine.

And BTW - this has nothing to do with PHP. Trying to wrap it around
"i.e. implemented in PHP" doesn't make it a PHP question.

Yes - you'll need to look for a flash-based system most likely that
will play mp3s - I know that there are flash players out there that
can take a podcast feed and allow the user to navigate between shows,
play the shows, etc.
