When Podcast Producer receives a job, it generates the properties.plist file which
contains metadata, including the Podcast Producer properties defined in Server Admin.
In the iChat notification message, you can add $$KEY$$ variables, which are replaced
by the values of these keys defined in the properties.plist file.
For example, to display the full name of the user who submitted the job (Bill James),
use $$User Full Name$$ in the iChat message. The Xgrid agent processing the job
replaces $$User Full Name$$ with Bill James.

Adding iTunes Podcast Directory Notifications

In the Notify stage, you can add only one iTunes Podcast Directory notification. For
this notification to work, you must first register your feeds with iTunes. When this
notification is sent to iTunes, the iTunes podcast repository syncs with your Podcast
Library as soon as possible to reflect all changes. This action is asynchronous.

For more information about Podcast Library and how to register feeds with iTunes,
see Podcast Producer Administration.

To add an iTunes Podcast Directory notification:

1

In Podcast Composer, go to the Notify stage (choose Stages > Notify or press

Command-6).

2

Click the Add (+) button and choose iTunes Podcast Directory.

3

Choose File > Save.
