Listen to the podcast
On episode 24, we discuss ParaViewWeb, software for interative, 3D browser-based
web visualization based on a client-server architecture. We go over the
technologies that make this possible, including JavaScript, WebGL, Java Applets, Flex,
and JSON-RPC. The role of this next-generation collabortive visualization
technology is discussed along with its challenges including high-bandwidth
connections and sometimes limited hardware and software support.
On today’s show our crew of hosts includes:
- Utkarsh Ayachit (special guest)
- Sebastien Jourdain (special guest)
- Matthew McCormick (moderator)
This week Utkarsh Ayachit joins us from Kitware, Inc. He has
been one of core developers of ParaView for the past 7 years and is the Project
Lead for ParaViewWeb.
Also from Kitware, Sebastien Jourdain started as a Research
and Design engineer for the Scientific Visualization team in February 2010.
Since then he developed ParaViewWeb and the Collaboration framework underneath
the latest ParaView.

Hello,
I just happened to notice this episode in an rss reader, but it never showed up in the proper podcast feed. Is there something wrong with the post not having the right meta-data to be a podcast? Also, the same appears to be true for episode 23. I’d like to listen to both (and future episodes) in my usual podcast app, so hopefully there’s something that can be done.
Thanks. Cheers

Hi Christian,
Are you subscribed to the feedburner feed? or the WordPress one? Also what podcast app do you use? We’ll try to fix this issue, but it is a little hard since we don’t have a broken version ourselves.

The feedburner one (). I use Google Listen for podcasts, so basically I just subscribe to a feed in Google Reader. Episodes 22 and earlier have an audio embedded in the post (like the remaining audio podcasts). Episodes 23 / 24 do not have this, and subsequently do not show up on the Google Listen app.
Digging in to the source of the feed, it looks as though up to 22 you have an “enclosure url” tag that is included. 23 and 24 do not. E.g.:
This is likely the culprit.

The html didn’t past properly. Line 410 of is what I tried to paste.

Hello Christian, I also use Google Listen. What is weird is that I do receive episode 23 but not episode 24. Something is definitely fishy. Thanks for pointing out the bit about the enclosure url. We’ll look into it.

I’m also using Google Listen and the last episode it grabbed was 22. I assume it is looking for a direct link in the RSS feed to the mp3 file. Your RSS entries since ep. 22 haven’t included a direct link to the mp3.

The feed issues should now be fixed. Thanks.
