We suggest publishing an audio and video podcast at the same time. In the future, when you upload a video episode to Transistor, we'll distribute it to all of the video platforms, but we'll also transcode the audio and distribute it to all the audio-only apps:

Transistor will also continue to be the home for your audio podcasts: we host your audio files, generate your RSS feed, and distribute the audio version of your podcast to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube Music, etc.

Currently, our recommendation for doing an audio and video podcast at the same time is to:

• Edit your episode in a video editing tool like Descript, Adobe Premier, ScreenFlow, Final Cut
• Edit your video with video and audio consumers in mind (the audio track from the video will be used for both video and audio versions)
• Upload the video version to YouTube and add it to a Podcast Playlist (we'll do this for you automatically)
• Upload the video version to Spotify (we'll do this for you automatically)
• Host an HLS video version for Apple Podcasts and other apps that support HLS video (we'll do this for you automatically)

Will Transistor support Apple HLS video hosting?

Yes! We're working on building support for Apple HLS video and are one of Apple's approved partners.
