Right now the script fetches each page of the cloudcast and parses the dom to get the list of episodes - but then we use the api.mixcloud.com calls to get user info and info about each episode.

Would probably be cleaner to just use api.mixcloud.com to get the list in the first place - avoid the need to parse dom.

Hi John, this code is no longer working as is. Is there an update somewhere? I tried fixing it and noticed all the urls were pointing to http when it looks like mixcloud is using https now. That gets farther but errors out on the $episode block on finding the elements.

Right now it just shoves the episode title into the description.

At the user page, which lists their casts, you don't get more than the title. (See http://www.mixcloud.com/TWR/). I could fetch and parse each individual episode while in the foreach loop, but we're talking ~24 more requests just to generate the feed.

i have problem with line, or previous lines of code
<pubDate>". date(DATE_RSS,$pubDate) ."</pubDate>
because it generates wrong dates, for example

Thu, 01 Jan 1970 01:00:00 +0100

and my podcast downloader gPodder have problem with date range/value and returns

mktime argument out of range

i do not need right date, however it needs some fixes, or deletion of line with that code

I tried tu use your code, and the feed is empty,
I don't know if i do somethings wrong or if an api change bug this code.

Downloads seem limited by Mixcloud to play speed - so a 2hr podcast will take 2 hrs to download.

Hi John,

first: thanks for your script! I was wondering, whether you heard of

https://github.com/RSS-Bridge/rss-bridge

Basically, it has the same goal as you: getting back RSS where it was stripped. There are several bridges that scrape content off of a multitude of pages (see the "bridges" subfolder).

I was wondering, whether you would be willing to incorporate your mixcloud rss-downloader into RSS-Bridge?

Would be great to have it as a bridge!

Cheers
Thomas

Mixcloud update the website: https://blog.mixcloud.com/2017/01/10/take-a-look-at-the-new-and-improved-mixcloud/

Now the links are not longer generated, but it should still be possible, but an update to the code is needed.

I'm pretty new in all this about RSS and podcast. I just want to upload my shows from Mixcloud on my podcast show on iTunes. So far this is what I understand:

$my_podcast = /* www.mixcloud.com/mixcloudnameaccount/ */

$my_feed_url = ""; /* no clue */ -------> Is this my podcast show link from iTunes?

Thanks

I'm getting an empty feed with everything but content items as shown below. It seems your demo feed has the same issues:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <rss version="2.0" xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd"

When you generate a feed with more than about 30 cloudcasts, it starts getting wrong url for mp3

Hi, your script works great but i found an issue. Mixcloud only displays the first 24 casts on the profil page so the generated rss don't get all the casts if you have more than 24 casts.
--- EDIT ---
I did a few modifications on your code and i'm now able to get all podcasts.
