Take a look at mp3splt and mp3wrap in the repos. No idea about Ogg
Vorbis though...

Are there any linux based Podcast encoders, or decoders, even, that
support the 'chapterised' versions of podcasts, iTunes uses a special
format for this, do we have our own?

I know that podcasts can be split into chapters - iTunes does support  
this as well. Download a tiesto podcast and you'll see ;-)

I've only just got round to listening to the podcast, sounds good from 
what I heard (about 20 minutes worth before accidentally pressing the 
skip back button on my mobile rather than holding it down - I dunno this 
new fangled technology it wouldn't do that with tapes).

I wonder actually, I know it's probably a pain to split the podcast into 
sections, but would it be possible to maybe include a table of contents 
with the time position for each section?

If it is possible then those of us who would be interested in splitting 
the podcast into smaller bitesize chunks can do so (either with Audacity 
or I guess we could bodge together a simple script to split the audio at 
certain times).

That was a bit of bad news about your Ubuntu mirror too Al, who'd have 
thought a factory reset would reformat your drives.  You'd have thought 
it would be possible to do that afterwards through a web interface or 
whatever.

Thanks for the kind words. About 6 months ago in the pub on a Friday a
cow-orker left his phone on the table as he went to the loo. I sent
the podcast theme to his phone and set it as his ringtone whilst he
was away. Now there's 4 phones in the office that use it as their
ringtone. Quite bizarre.

We were a bit rusty, it being the first recording for ~12 weeks or so,
so I think we can be forgiven this minor faux pas. :)

Yey, I am glad the podcast is back and I enjoyed it. The theme tune made me 
smile as I had missed that.

Also, as I told popey, I was holding my breath at the beginning awaiting the 
"Sounds like a fun packed show!" and it never happened!!!

Bring back the catchphrase!

Good work chaps.

I was surprisingly excited to find out the podcast was back. I lost an 
hour of work today (don't worry I'm a PhD student, I often find ways to 
lose an hour or two during the day), and now have the theme tune going 
round and round in my head. Even whistled it in the corridor earlier :-S

Welcome back! I love the new show format/style, it seems much more
natural and yet still maintains the quality content and audio.

Top job guys, looking forward to the rest of the season! :)
