  Any chance of supporting chapters that are not embedded in the MP3 file. There are two main standards:

  1. Podlove’s Simple podcast chapters: https://podlove.org/simple-chapters/
  2. Podcasting 2.0 Chapters specification: https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/blob/main/chapters/jsonChapters.md

  Any chance of getting support for them? To me, they sound much nicer than embedded in the file and should be the future of the standard.

  Hi, @olikami! No exact timeline for when we’ll be supporting Podlove or Podcasting 2.0 chapters yet, but we have started looking into it.

  We’re also tracking demand for this, so I’ve made sure to add your comments in the relevant reports.

  @staff-cara I would like Podcasting 2.0 chapters as well.

  @tsgcn This has long been implemented with our support for Podcast Index and Podlove chapters. We have more information here:

  I’ll go ahead and close this feature request.
