Hi,
I use Windows, although this problem may not have anything to do with windows at all, but I am asking to find out if there is anything I could try to improve this problem.
I create my podcasts using Audacity, I export them to mp3, then load them up to my wordpress blog. My listeners tune in via links from Facbook, twitter, itunes and my blog site, and this problem is encountered by me, and some listeners.
What happens is we will listen from our devices, iphone 5s, iphone 6, and someone else uses something like an ipad, only it’s not the Apple brand. I don’t know what they use. The one listener who uses the iphone 6 cannot get the podcast to play at all, even when they empty their cache beforehand. Others have this experience: the podcast plays anywhere from 2 to eight minutes, and then it stops and begins to play the podcast from the very beginning. Once this begins, it continues to play for that amount of time, looping back continually, never playing more than the amount of minutes from when it first looped. I had thought that my files are too large, (approx 20 mb) but when I record voice only, they are only 15 mb, and the problem still occurs. In fact, today, when I tested it, it was worse. I listened in through my twitter link, and it stopped about 6 times, without looping, and I had to restart twitter each time and click the link to get to my blog to hit the play button each time.
Have any other podcasters experienced this problem? Or does the Audacity tech staff know what I could do to rectify this? Any help is much appreciated.
