Given that Flash is no longer supported on current mobile devices, I don't think your audience will suffer from this removal.

This said, in ImpressCMS 2.0 the installation of dependencies should be handled by composer, so the 'manual install' reason should no longer be there.

Just a short note to ask for some feedback - I'm thinking about removing support for JW Player from an upcoming update to the Podcast module for several reasons:

i) All mainstream browsers now support the HTML5 audio and video tags.

ii) It has to be installed separately, which is an extra hassle for people, and in principle I don't like to use external libraries etc. unless there is a good reason to do so.

iii) Adobe Flash can export directly to HTML 5 now.

As far as I can tell the only sticking point may be a loss of support for Flash, which is only really relevant to PCs as the main mobile platforms don't support it.

If there's anyone out there that still cares about Flash please let me know.

* Fix bug in search function that was crashing profile views.
* Fix date format in search function.

Podcast V1.33 beta is available for download.

In this version I have removed i) the rights object and ii) Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting Service from the module. Podcast now draws these services from the Sprockets module (Podcast was written before Sprockets).

This basically lightens the module a bit and gets rid of duplicate code, which will make my life easier in maintaining both Podcast and Sprockets. However, please note that if you use Podcast without the Sprockets module installed you will not have access to rights management.

I have also added the back end for tagging support to Podcast, tags will probably be implemented in the next version of the module.
