MX Linux Forum

Hello all , thank you for the great OS!!

I was trying to listen to a podcast with MXlinux, I was looking something like the software AntennaPod for android, where you have a "search podcast" field , and from there you can find the podcasts you are searching for.

I tried first "gpodder" (debian MX stable), then "Podcast "(flatpak) , then "Liferea"(MxTest repository). With these softwares I had no success. (not an easy way to do a search for podcasts)

Then I made a search "how to listen to podcasts on the Linux desktop " and I found this software called CPod.

I added it using " two flatpak commands from terminal", the software works and I found the podcasts I was searching.
I noticed anyway the software is not present in the MX-package-installer the Flatpak menu.

I noticed that it is unmantained app, anyway it works.
I suppose it is possible to add a "global search for podcasts" to softwares like Gpodder, Liferea, but I don't know how yet. If you know let me know.

MORE INFO:
"two flatpak commands from terminal":
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub com.github.z.Cumulonimbus

github page
https://github.com/z-------------/CPod/releases/

its still listed as Cumulonimbus on the flatpak tab.

Ah ok, I did not noticed that , you are right.

Flatpaks in the mx-packageinstaller have not any field for "software detailed description ", some more info about softwares would be helpful.
If you make a search for "podcast" you do not find software "Cumulonimbus".

Maybe do exist more "podcast software" also, but you cannot know.
It would help to know where and how to do such a more detailed search .

thank you
