==Description==
 
[[File:Mtsorrow.JPG|thumb|right|180px|[[Mt. Sorrow]], the official mascot of the Wookiee-Cast.]]
 
Wookieepedia-based ''[[Star Wars]]'' news coverage, done in a satirical fashion. But, nevertheless, proper news coverage. Expect regular, pure-Wookieepedia segments as well. Wookiee-Cast does not necessarily represent the opinions of Wookieepedia or its editors. All ''Star Wars'' content is subject to the licensing of [[Lucasfilm Ltd.]]

==Early access: playing M4A audio==
 
Wookiee-Cast episodes are released as M4A files first, and converted to MP3 and Ogg Vorbis later. If you can't wait for it to be converted, here are some instructions.
 
 
===Windows===
 
To play AAC files in any DirectShow-compatible media player (like Windows Media Player), install the [http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/AAC-directshow-filter-Download-9820.html#download_locations AAC codec].
 
* Download the ZIP archive.
 
* Extract it to any folder. Just remember not to delete it.
 
* Run register_release.bat.
 
 
If you don't care what media player to use, you can use [[Wikipedia:VLC media player|VLC]], which can play nearly every audio and video format in existence with the default install.
 
 
===Linux===
 
Both the GStreamer and Xine backends support AAC audio, and your distribution may already have the necessary codecs installed. If not, this means MP3 support is probably also absent by default. If your distribution does not play M4A/AAC files out of the box, consult its official website or IRC channel for information on how to enable them.
 
 
If you don't care what media player to use, you can install MPlayer or VLC from your distribution's software repository. Both support AAC playback via the libfaad decoder.
 
 
===Mac===
 
They can be played out of the box.
