I use the Audio Player plugin on a number of sites where I publish podcasts, principally PodLeaders.com
The main reason I use it is to simply populate the posts with a Flash player for any podcasts which I post so people can listen to them onscreen.
However, since upgrading PodLeaders to WordPress to 2.5 the plugin has stopped working
It simply displays a blank where the Flash player should be.
I tried switching to the Default WordPress theme to see if the problem was theme related but it appears not to be as the problem also happened in that theme.
I downloaded another plugin, called Podcasting which is supposed to work with WordPress 2.5 but that didn’t seem to work either.
Does anyone have any idea where the problem might lie and what I’ll need to do to fix it?
UPDATE: Problem solved. Pete reminded me in the comments of this post to check my folder structure for the Audio Player plugin and sure enough when updating from 1.2.2 to 1.2.3 I had inadvertently uploaded the plugin folder instead of simply the contents of the plugin folder! Fixed now and working once more. Thanks Pete.

In case you haven’t come across it elsewhere already today, Conn O’Muineachain has launched a channel on Intruders.tv focussing on Irish startups.
From the About page:
Our main objective is to take you to the major conferences and events around the world, interview entrepreneurs and investors, visit exciting startups and give you a first look at the hottest technology.
We will meet face to face with the major players in our industry and have open conversations with them about their work, current projects, entrepreneurship and whatever else comes to mind!
Intruders TV Ireland is operated by Edgecast Media Ltd. If you would like to contact us with suggestions, comments, corrections, please email conn(at)intruders(dot)tv.
That’s excellent news, congrats to Conn and the Intruders team for getting this off the ground. Conn, you’ll have to come along to the it@cork conference this year to get some footage - the speaker list hasn’t been published but I can tell you it will blow your socks off!
Like my own first video podcast, Conn’s first interview is with (the normally shy and retiring - not!) Conor O’Neill. Am I imagining it or is Conor wearing the same Twitter jumper in both?

I published my first video podcast this evening over on PodLeaders.com. As it is the first one, I am re-publishing it here too.
The podcast is an interview with LouderVoice’s Conor O’Neill. Conor discusses how the site is based on Microformats (making the data fully portable), how the sites makes extensive use of tagging and how you can subscribe to RSS feeds for almost every aspect of the site.
