To get a link to the URL for the file, you should be able to use something like:

Link to enclosure, <a href=̶1;$entry.getMetaData().get("rss-enclosure-object&quot;).getUrl()”&gt;here</a>.

OK - My turn in the hot seat!
I'd like to start doing an occasional podcast at my blog. Growing into a video podcast on ocassion. However, I'm having problems figuring out how to use the RSS-Enclosure plugin.

1) When I use the form, I can input a target (I'm using an old 1960's tune for starters and testing) but nothing shows up on the page.

2) I can make the information show up on the web page in the [enclosure] tags when I put the following in my template. But no link shows up. Only the text.

Excerpt from Asual-entry.vm
<item>
  ; <title>$entry.getEscapedTitle()</title&gt;
 ; &nbsp;<link&gt;$entry.getEscapedLink()</link>
&nbsp; &nbsp;#RSSEnclosure($entry)
</item>

3) the Wiki information isn't very clear about what I should see when I've done. In fact, almost all the information there was already done in plugins.xml .

4) The Plugin shows up in the log file as executing with the appropriate MP3 being registered. It even knows the size!

5) I even checked the source files and can't find the RSS-Enclosure source in the plugin hierarchy... so I'm not sure what to do if I wanted to roll my own.

3) My goal here is to be able to have the occasional Blog entry be a podcast with some background text and a link to the cast.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

thanks,
Dan
