podcast format for iTunes

In case anyone is searching around on Google or Yahoo! for a character encoding format that works for iTunes – I have found that UTF-8 works great. And I use htmlentities($str, ENT_QUOTES, “UTF-8″) to get the text formatted properly.
Also a note, that if you leave the length field empty, iTunes doesn’t display the file as an option to the consumer. It makes sense, but I just want to put it out there because after we fixed our encoding issue, we realized we had to fix a filesize() error that was occuring.
