Publish a Video Podcast Episode


To publish a video podcast episode:


  1. Log in to your Podbean account. Go to Episodes > Episode List.
  2. Click New Episode.
  3. Upload your video file.
  4. Add your episode title, description, artwork, and other episode details.
  5. Click Publish or schedule the episode for a later date.


Once the episode is published, the video will be added to your podcast RSS feed for podcast apps that support video playback.



Publishing with Apple HLS Video


Podbean supports HLS video for Apple Podcasts.


If you publish a video podcast and have already enabled Apple Podcasts HLS Video Streaming, the episode video will be added to the RSS feed for all podcast apps. HLS video will also be submitted to Apple Podcasts via API, allowing Apple Podcasts to play either audio-only episodes or videos at various bitrates through HLS.


If you publish a video podcast but have not enabled Apple Podcasts HLS Video Streaming, you may consider enabling it for better Apple Podcasts video support.
