Installing CPod on Linux<\/h2>\n

Cpod is an excellent podcast client for the Linux desktop. It\u2019s straightforward to use, beautiful and handles podcast shows really well. However, it doesn\u2019t come pre-installed on any Linux operating system by default.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As CPod isn\u2019t a default application, you\u2019ll need to install it yourself. To install the latest release of CPod on Linux, start by opening up a terminal window on the Linux desktop. You can open up a terminal window by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T<\/strong> on the keyboard or searching for \u201cTerminal\u201d in the app menu. With the terminal open and ready to go, follow the instructions outlined below that corresponds with the Linux OS you currently use.<\/p>\n

Ubuntu<\/h3>\n

CPod is installable on Ubuntu Linux via a downloadable DEB package. To get your hands on this DEB package for your own use, run the following wget<\/strong> download command.<\/p>\n

\nwget https:\/\/github.com\/z-------------\/CPod\/releases\/download\/v1.28.0\/CPod_1.28.0_amd64.deb\n<\/pre>\n
After downloading the latest DEB package release to your computer, you\u2019ll be able to install it.\u00a0 Using the apt install<\/strong> command below, set up CPod on your Ubuntu system.<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt install .\/CPod_1.28.0_amd64.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Debian<\/h3>\n
Those using Debian Linux will be able to get CPod working by downloading the installable DEB package from the developer\u2019s GitHub release page. To start the download, make use of the following wget<\/strong> download command below.<\/p>\n
\nwget https:\/\/github.com\/z-------------\/CPod\/releases\/download\/v1.28.0\/CPod_1.28.0_amd64.deb\n<\/pre>\n
After downloading the package, use the dpkg -i<\/strong> command to install the latest CPod DEB package to your computer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nsudo dpkg -i CPod_1.28.0_amd64.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Following the installation of CPod on your Debian Linux system, you\u2019ll need to correct any dependency issues that may have arisen during the installation process. To do that, execute the following apt-get install -f<\/strong> command.<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt-get install -f\n<\/pre>\n
Arch Linux<\/h3>\n
The CPod application is available for all Arch Linux users through the Arch Linux AUR. First, however, you\u2019ll need to install the Trizen AUR helper tool. To do that, use the following commands below in your terminal.<\/p>\n
\nsudo pacman -S git base-devel\ngit clone https:\/\/aur.archlinux.org\/trizen.git\ncd trizen\/\nmakepkg -sri\n<\/pre>\n
After setting up the latest release of Trizen on your computer, use the trizen -S<\/strong> command to get the CPod application set up on your Arch Linux system.<\/p>\n
\ntrizen -S cpod\n<\/pre>\n
Fedora\/OpenSUSE<\/h3>\n
If you\u2019re using Fedora Linux or OpenSUSE, you won\u2019t be able to install CPod on your computer with an RPM package file. Instead, if you want to use this application, you\u2019ll have to set it up via Flatpak.<\/p>\n
Flatpak<\/h3>\n
CPod is available on the Flathub app store as a Flatpak. However, to get it working, you\u2019ll first need to set up the Flatpak runtime. To get the runtime working, follow along with our guide on the subject.<\/p>\n
After setting up the Flatpak runtime on your computer, the installation can begin. Open up a terminal window on the Linux desktop. Then, using the two commands below, install the latest release of Cpod onto your Linux computer.<\/p>\n
\nflatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https:\/\/flathub.org\/repo\/flathub.flatpakrepo\nflatpak install flathub com.github.z.Cumulonimbus\n<\/pre>\n
Listen to podcasts on the Linux desktop with CPod<\/h2>\n
To listen to your favorite podcasts with CPod on Linux, start by opening up the application on the desktop. You can open up CPod on your computer by searching for \u201cCPod\u201d in the app menu. Once the CPod app is open, follow the step-by-step instructions below.<\/p>\n
Step 1:<\/strong> Find the RSS URL of your favorite podcast(s). These RSS URL links are usually available on the podcast\u2019s website or their RSS feed page.\u00a0 Alternatively, if you do not know the RSS URL to your favorite podcast, type in the name of it into the CPod search box and press Enter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/strong> After pressing the Enter<\/strong> key on the keyboard, CPod will load up search results. Look through the results for the show you wish to add to your podcast library. Then, click on the \u201cSubscribe\u201d button to subscribe to the show.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n

Want to download a podcast onto your computer to listen to for later? Select the download button inside of the Cpod app, rather than the play button to download any podcast episode you wish to your Linux computer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
