   @agates @genebean @errhead Podcasts are RSS feeds with downloadable enclosures. What would the enclosure point to with Owncast?

     @owncast details are at https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/blob/main/docs/1.0.md#live-item, but basically the url of the live stream

     @genebean @agates @errhead I'm not understanding how ephemeral live streams and Podcasting can work together. What if it's a 24/7 stream, how do you download something that never ends? Or the opposite, what happens when the stream ends and is no longer is live and a Podcast client tries to access it? Obviously you've thought through this more than I have, so please do file an issue with our issue tracker with detailed examples, and we can discuss it there.

     1/2 @owncast appologies! There is an umbrella of new features called "Podcasting 2.0" and live stuff is one such feature. The liveItem tag, often referred to as LIT, allows a podcaster to add an item into their rss feed that contains a link to the live stream (this is where Owncast would fit in). When the feed is republished with this item podping notifies potential listeners and/or viewers.

     @genebean @agates @errhead I'd still encourage you to file a feature request so it has a dedicated place to be discussed, planned, and fleshed out if this is something you're serious about requesting to get built. If it's not filed there's a 0% it'll even be thought about.

     @owncast - did that clear things up?

     @owncast http://mp3s.nashownotes.com/pc20rss.xml (The Podcasting 2.0 podcast) is an example of a show that does this.

     2/2 @owncast Once the live stream ends, Owncast's job would be done and traditional post production and episode publishing would take over. When that is complete, the normal downloadable episode would get added to the rss feed (Owncast would not be involved in this step).

     @agates - is filing a request something you are game to do?
