PenguinTV Description

A RSS reader that supports enclosed media files for podcasts and video blogs. PenguinTV is not just another RSS feed reader. PenguinTV is designed from the ground up to work seamlessly with podcasts and video blogs, allowing you to easily enjoy the audio, music, and video published around the web in RSS format.Until now, the only solutions for listening to podcasts on Linux have been clunky apps and unreliable bash scripts. Many solutions require the user to browse file directories named by date to find media files. With the large amount of information in podcasts and videos, a user needs help to keep track of everything.PenguinTV eliminates all of these problems with a light-weight but powerful interface that shows you what you need to know, and hides what you don't. You can immediately see what you've watched, what's available to view, and which media are downloading.You don't have to worry about where files are stored, what their names are, or what format they are in. Rather than try to reinvent the wheel by coding its own media player, PenguinTV launches the media player of your choice to view your downloads. Here are some key features of "PenguinTV": · Full Unicode support · Automatic polling · One-button downloading of new videos and podcasts · Instant download status notification · Powered by Mark Pilgrim's famous feedparser Requirements: · PySQLite · PycURL · gnome-python What's New in This Release: · Lots of bugfixes, etc · Supports Nokia N800/N810 Maemo devices · Better setup of mozilla environment, should no longer crash on startup on any platform · Commandline control of media player · Local image caching so images still appear when offline
