# PodPress – iTunes Streaming Problem

 * I have podpress setup on my site. I have 5 episodes. When streaming on this site
   it works perfectly:
 * [http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id413610440](http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id413610440)
 * however, when i view it on iTunes Store, some of the episodes is marked as 0:
   01 seconds long, and won’t stream. It does play just fine when you download the
   episode. It’s just the streaming that’s just the issue. Any ideas on how to fix
   this?
 * Thanks

 * You have discovered an interesting issue. This problem seems really to be limited
   to the situation when you view the iTunes pages of the podcast in the iTunes 
   Client software (I have tested with iTunes 10.3.x Win7 64.). If you click on 
   the play button in the episode list then all episodes with the duration of 0:
   01 getting played only for 1 second.
    I guess that this problem may be solved
   by inserting the correct duration for each episode. But I’m not sure whether 
   the iTunes page updates these values while the publication dates and the GUIDs
   of the posts remain the same. That is why this may help only to avoid this problem
   for future episodes.
 * In your case the duration value of the episodes 1, 2 and 3 is 0:00:01 in the 
   feed. This means that the duration field in the podPress box below the post editor
   in WP was left empty or filled with invalid characters or with an equivalent 
   to this duration.
    Please, control the duration values of these three episodes
   and correct them if necessary. (In some of the past versions of podPress existed
   a problem with this input field ([see this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-podpress-podcast-duration-lostnot-being-saved-workaround-provided)).
   But it is fixed, now.)
 * Setting the duration value to the correct value should fix this problem.
 * Regards,
    Tim
