A great tip for using CastRoller to listen to podcasts on your Nook Color found on the Barnes & Noble Forums
Go to CastRoller on your Nooks Browser.
Find a broadcast that you like! I love NPR Radio… On the shows podcast page just click-on the Download link! This will stream the shows mp3 file to your Nooks Mp3 player. It will not download to your Nook! If you hit the Play button nothing happens… Just hit the download buttion… I know most of you like me in the past had to download files on your home computers and side load the podcast to your Nooks mp3 player’s file. Not any more… Enjoy!

We’ve just published an update to the site with several usability improvements that take into account feedback that we have received from our users.
The first has to do with what CastRoller does when you add a podcast to your collection or to a channel. Previously, when you added a podcast the latest 5 episodes from that podcast were added to the top of your collection/channel causing any episodes currently in that collection/channel to get pushed down beneath. We have now updated the behaviour so that now only the most recently published episode from that podcast is added to the top of your channel/collection. The next 4 newest episodes are added to your collection/channel in order with other episodes published at the same time as those episodes, so they will be mixed in where you expect to see them.
This change makes it less of a hassle when you add a new podcast as your feeds won’t be dramatically changed when you add the show. We chose to put the most recent episode at the top so that you’ll be able to enjoy that episode right away, and the other episodes are mixed in so that when you are paging through your episodes, you’ll see them where you expect to see them.
The 2nd change will affect less users, but still is quite useful: If you are using a web browser without Flash installed, you previously were unable to play episodes directly on CastRoller. Now, we have updated the site so that any browser that has Flash disable but supports HTML5 will be able to play both audio and video right on CastRoller.com.
This means that both desktop and mobile web browsers that don’t have Flash will be able to fully enjoy playing episodes on CastRoller.
Finally, we made a number of smaller fixes to CastRoller including fixing adding a podcast to a new channel and some fixes attempting to reduce the number of duplicate episodes on the site.
These changes are a direct result of the feedback from our users, please let us know what you think of these changes and any more changes you’d like to see on the site.
