Adding Images to a Podcast
Your podcasts can display still images on iTunes and iPod. Using the podcast track together
with the Details tab, you can add a single image for an entire podcast or create a slideshow
of images that plays in sync with the audio portion of your podcast. If your project has a
video track, you can use frames of the video as still images in your podcast. You can also
add other still images to your podcast.
Setting an Episode Image for an Entire Podcast
A common podcasting practice is to insert a single, representative image for an audio
podcast so that it displays (in iTunes and on iPod) during the entire episode.
