I got full visibility back. Guess I will hang in there with PodPress a little longer. FYI PodPress 7.3 seems to fix the player problem. I got full visibility back.

I loved it for my videoblog, and I'd have to go back and redo nearly every entry from June 2006 on if I want to switch to a different player. Which I may have to do. Ugh. Good luck to all the PodPress users out there! Yeah, me too.

I tried poking around the code to see if I could hack the player to play, but failed. The reluctance is to go back and change old entries to use a different player- I use Audio PLayer on another site that has only audio enclosures- http://www.1pixelout.net/code/audio-player-wordpress-plugin/ PodPress has the advantage of dealing with a wide range of content types, so I'll hope for an answer soon.

I had the same thing happen. I noodled around changing my theme and eventually PodPress started displaying my video thumbnails, but still does not display the little frame the player is supposed to create (though at first it didn't even display the pictures). If you want to see, here's my sample: http://www.hummingcrow.com/2007/02/05/alley-foraging/. And it looks like my players get "display: block" instead of "display: none" like yours. I hope this gets solved soon - I don't have the necessary skills to fix it on my own. I'd have replied to you in the PodPress forum but I refuse to supply my actual birthdate including the year just to register. I'll be watching your wheels turn to see if you locate a solution. I like PodPress, but this isn't the first time it's gone wonky on me. May be time to part ways.
