Does anyone know how to create an RSS image so that the podcasts will include an image to the feed as well?
And one more thing, for some reason, i tunes is not supporting mp3's from the sermon browser, is there a reason why?

I don't know the answer to your first question, but iTunes has no trouble with the mp3's on our website:

Could you post a link to your site, so we could take a look?

I think you'd need to do some special coding to make the image thing happen. Don't think anything native to SermonBrowser can handle that.
As for the iTunes & MP3's, we also use MP3's, and I have no problem importing them into iTunes from our site: http://www.dodgevilleumc.org/sermons … I wonder if perhaps your link is configured incorrectly? I'm not an expert with the iTunes part of it, but it doesn't appear to be Sermon Browser-specific.

Hmmm. Agreed, you have a problem with your feed. It's a similar problem to what these people have:
http://www.4-14.org.uk/forum/s…..for-itunes
However, there wasn't any real closure to that topic, unfortunately.
Looking at your specific feed, it looks very similar to mine. You and I even name our .mp3 files the same way. However, my feed works in iTunes, and yours does not.
To look at the feeds, click on the links below, and then View Source.
Your feed:
http://fumcfarmington.com/list…..n/?podcast
My feed:
http://www.pathwayschurch.us/p…..t/?podcast
One difference that I see is that you use multiline descriptions in your sermons, and I only use one-line descriptions (or no descriptions). I don't know if that would make a difference to iTunes or not, but it might be something to try.
If you find any other differences between your feed and mine, it might give us another clue as to what is going on.

Looks like I found a solution to both problems…
1.
in the podcast.php file I just added the RSS image tag….
2.
I just needed to add the leading/beginning slash in my uploads folder sections of the option page to /wp-content/uploads/sermons/ instead of the default wp-content/uploads/sermons/ and voila!! thanks boys!

hey dude,
you need to be careful but, in some case you can change that file with no interruption, but sometimes it will mess with the whole plug-in, so be sure and back-up your file before you edit…. go here to learn more
http://www.w3schools.com/rss/r…..hannel.asp
then go to your podcast.php file and towards the bottom of the page you can see where the RSS XML code is written, just work within the channel tag, and you should be ok…. just be sure and test your feeds both with itunes and other apps to make sure it's still working before you launch it…
