hello gurus! :D

I am having so much fun! now that i have a basic understanding and can follow tutorials dealing with basic post processing issues in Photoshop, i ve discovered that i can watch podcasts of tutotials while im actually working on my images. WHAT AN AMAZING WAY TO LEARN!
Anyway, im loading some podcasts from iTunes but ive noticed that with some of them i only get the audio and i cant get the image part. Am i doing something wrong? Im using a Mac to subscribe to the podcast but i can only hear it and not see it.... im not an expert on using itunes but does any body have an idea what might be going on?


BTW, Russell Brown is so cool! I never even knew who he was until yesterday!

    Originally most podcasts were only audio. Given that the iPod was really for music only, that makes sense. However since, newer iPods do play video some podcasts have migrated to being video/audio. But many more are still only audio. I'll have to check iTunes to see if the file notes that (besides extension).

    Exactly! Sounds like you have grabbed some audio podcasts, many of which are excellent, too! :ivar

    When you use iTunes to select a podcast for listening/viewing, if you see a little TV symbol beside the title of the actual episode, it's a video podcast. If you don't, it's audio only. Although now they are coming out with "enhanced audio" podcasts that show images at certain points in the podcast to help illustrate.

    What are you finding are your best photo podcasts? I'm digging Tips From the Top Floor, but I haven't gone much in to others.
