Since the last few days gPodder finds only the first podcast of a feed. I have tried it with several feeds and even feeds which were shown completely before show now only one podcast. It can still find new episodes but only one and it displays only the most current one. How can I solve that behaviour? All those feeds look fine with other tools.
Thanks in advance.

btw: Why are there two threads for gPodder?

In the next version, you will be able to add your my.gpodder.org account to gPodder and add subscriptions via the comfortable web interface from your computer (even if you N900 isn't online), and the next time you start gPodder, it will ask if you want to subscribe to the given podcasts from the web service.

For now, you can use "gpodder --fremantle --subscribe=http://example.org/podcast.rss" to use the GUI to subscribe to podcasts, or simply use "feedhandler http://example.org/podcast.rss" (if you have feedhandler installed) and select "gPodder" from the resulting dialog.

If "gpo subscribe" does not work, that's a bug, and should be filed as such I don't use the CLI client that much, and I agree that it does need some love.

The "play all" feature will be gone in the next version, I think, and a different mechanism will be used, which makes it easier to play episodes directly from the list.

Because if it would, people would complain why gPodder auto-updates when it's not opened. That's especially important when you consider that not everyone has an unlimited data plan (and updating feeds does consume some traffic) and that parsing the XML of the feeds does require some processing power.

In short: gPodder does not auto-update in the background, because it's not implemented yet, and it would be bad for the battery life of your device (and might be bad for your finances if you have a non-unlimited data plan).

Maybe you have (accidentally?) changed the view settings to show only "new" episodes? In the episode list, tap the title bar and then you have different choices at the top of the menu. Select a different item (e.g. "All" to show all, or "Deleted" to show all + deleted episodes).

This thread is for gPodder on Fremantle (that's "Maemo 5" in marketing speak) and the other thread is for gPodder on Diablo (that's "Maemo 4", or when talking about devices, it's N800 and N810).

It does work if you set your environment globally or start gPodder from the command line, like this:

Code:
export http_proxy=http://...
gpodder --fremantle

Could gpodder fetch the proxy settings from maemo on startup and setenv() http_proxy? Would that even work?

Could do, and would work. Please file it as enhancement request on bugs.maemo.org, so I don't forget to implement it eventually. Bonus points for adding basic info about how to get the settings from Maemo, which will speed up the implementation, as I don't have to spend time on hunting down documentation and digging through source code, but can go straight to implementing it

Hi, I installed gpodder 2.1-1 through maemo.org repository. When i try to open a downloaded podcast in gpodder, mediaplayer says "file not found". The podcast i downloaded is in mp3-format.
