Odeo Support
Odeo is a neat podcasting and audio company run by some folks we like.
Obviously a few of you like them too because we’ve been getting more and more requests to support Odeo embedding here in WordPress.com, just like we do for Google and Youtube.
Never fear, that day is here. It works a lot like Youtube does.
Go to their site and go to an audio player page, I chose this Diggnation podcast. (Or you can listen to Weird Al if you’re into that.)
Copy and paste the URL in your address bar, it should look like this: http://odeo.com/audio/1968091/view.
And write it out like this [odeo=http://odeo.com/audio/1968091/view] .
Then you will get a nice audio player like this:

Nice one!
September 28th, 2006 at 12:06 am
Thanks! I’m sure I’ll have fun with this one.
September 28th, 2006 at 12:09 am
Holy, Crap! AWESOME! Once again, WordPress.com listening to its users and helping them out with our desire should be highly appauled!
I only wish that the Odeo player has a Volume slider (yeah yea, there’s one on my desktop as well as a manual one on my speakers… yet.. I’m spoiled, what can I say?
I like to have my options hehe)
Once again, lovin’ the updates!
September 28th, 2006 at 12:15 am
This is great news! I already placed two players on my blog.
any hope at being able to post the black player?
September 28th, 2006 at 12:21 am
Really helpful! thanks
September 28th, 2006 at 12:22 am
what a neat tool! thank you.
September 28th, 2006 at 12:26 am
I’ve been waiting for this forEVER. Thanks!
September 28th, 2006 at 12:27 am
IN LOVE!
September 28th, 2006 at 12:29 am
It switches to the black player if you have a dark theme, more on that in the next post.
September 28th, 2006 at 12:36 am
great i’m trying it
September 28th, 2006 at 1:01 am
You rule \m/
September 28th, 2006 at 1:13 am
Yay!
September 28th, 2006 at 1:13 am
As a longtime Odeo user, I luv it, luv it, luv it!!!!!
However, a small, tinsy request.
Is it possible to adapt the code so that one can embed the whole Odeo channel as opposed one episode?
If not, no biggy.
September 28th, 2006 at 1:13 am
You guys rock!!!
September 28th, 2006 at 1:20 am
Looks good. The opening announcement they tag onto the audio sounds crisp, professional, a simple plug for their services. I’ll try it in my morning post by using a link to archive.org.
September 28th, 2006 at 1:49 am
Amazing u guys simly rock !!! Tx!
September 28th, 2006 at 1:50 am

September 28th, 2006 at 3:36 am

Rawk on! That’s hot stuff!
I love it!
Thanks! xoxo
September 28th, 2006 at 4:39 am
Super!!!
September 28th, 2006 at 4:42 am
Yay! WordPress = For the User and by the User!
I’m happy for everyone.(even though I can’t use it _ I’m on Dial-up).
As usually WP innovates for the users!
September 28th, 2006 at 4:43 am
Yeah, a volume slider would be nice, plus the choice to choose perhaps a more compact box. It sometimes looks just that little bit more uglier when the box has a larger width than the blog siderbar itself. Great integration with the podcasting thingy, though.
September 28th, 2006 at 4:51 am
Yeah!!!!!!
September 28th, 2006 at 6:57 am
You’r simply the best!!
September 28th, 2006 at 7:00 am
Thanks!
… now I’m felling we need a code higlight plugin
September 28th, 2006 at 7:25 am
Its a steap ahead towards embedding flash player…
As a podcaster, I don’t think Odio will help me. But for new podcasters , who want to run podcast on WP this is the best option as they can do podcast on Odio and post here on WP..
Also, if I want to post audio file on WP, now I can use Odio for that…Its great
September 28th, 2006 at 7:49 am
A Very Good Innovation but i want to suggest a plugin for Podcast as Podpress,do you know ?

September 29th, 2006 at 7:21 am
Thats great news matt ! Great to be with WordPress.com
September 29th, 2006 at 11:47 am

September 29th, 2006 at 4:24 pm
Thank you. So much.
September 29th, 2006 at 6:58 pm
excellent !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 29th, 2006 at 7:14 pm
this is great.
but why can’t we put it at our side widget?
September 29th, 2006 at 10:25 pm
No support for entire channels huh? Now that would be great!
September 29th, 2006 at 10:25 pm
‘great!
I searching it now! ;D
September 30th, 2006 at 7:37 am
Great!!
September 30th, 2006 at 11:14 am
Just a suggestion, could it be possible to put these “codes” (YouTube and Odeo) somewhere in our Dashboard/Write Post options? Sometimes it’s not always easy to remember the codes. What happens is, it forced me to search my old post and do the cut and paste technique.
September 30th, 2006 at 12:45 pm
Awesome! I just signed up to Odeo, I hope you guys can allow choice of player, I like the black one better.
September 30th, 2006 at 7:31 pm
how come some viewers get an error on their page on some browsers?
October 1st, 2006 at 12:17 am
Simply GREAT!!! Thank you! I was waiting for something like this for at least ten months!!!
October 1st, 2006 at 7:58 pm
That is really cool~~~~~
I love wp,and I love odeo too!
But I am not using a wordpress.com blog now,
instead, I set up my own site.
How can I enable this feature in my own site?
Another question is:
There are several players on odeo.com
Can I choose other players?
October 1st, 2006 at 8:14 pm
greate is cool
October 1st, 2006 at 8:27 pm
Sweet!
October 1st, 2006 at 9:22 pm
You guys are sick!! Good jobs. Now if we could get it in our widgets…
October 2nd, 2006 at 4:49 am
Awesomeness. You guys rock.
Hellodeo.
October 5th, 2006 at 11:04 pm
Great!
October 9th, 2006 at 5:40 am
yay!
October 9th, 2006 at 12:36 pm
The version written in the faq shows [url=] instead of [odeo=]
October 10th, 2006 at 8:27 am
Righteously Insane – good catch! I’ve corrected that.
October 19th, 2006 at 1:08 am
fantastic.
Your support of youtube and google video are awesome.
Thanks
