GigaVox/Podango Make the Official Server Switch (Cut Over) | Here’s What You Need to Know
Monday, January 21st, 2008
Over the weekend Podango sent out an email to their users stating that the official switch of the GigaVox system to their own servers was going to take place. Sadly, the notice came about 24 hours before the switch. I’d hoped to have time to offer more tips and guidance on the matter BEFORE the switch, but time didn’t allow. Here are a few pointers for those of you who still have questions or just haven’t gotten around to making the necessary changes.
The server switch is part of the acquisition of the Gigavox Audio Lite technology by Podango. It affects anyone who has been using the GigaVox Audio Lite system (now Podango Show Builder Lite) to publish their podcast. Until you make these changes, none of your GigaVox Audio/Podango Show Builder Lite published episodes will download or play.
Have you ever played a podcast and it comes out sounding like a chipmunk (or the devil) recorded it? Fortunately the explanation for this is easy and so is the fix. The problem lies in the sample rate the audio file was recorded and saved at.
