Hi,

when I choose the option "Downloaded episodes" from the "View" menu,
also some episodes are displayed which are not downloaded (the little
icon besides the episode title is empty, and not the "music note" icon).
I expect this option to only show downloaded episodes, and in fact I
cannot tell the difference from the option "Hide deleted episodes".
Looking at the screenshot I see that the extraneous episodes that appear
are New (you can see that because they are in bold font). "New" episodes
(as well as episodes that are currently being downloaded) are considered
so important that they will always appear in the list, independent of
which kind of view you select.
The reason for this is quite simple: You can have the view option set to
"Downloaded" episodes, but still see (and download) any new episodes that
are found as feeds are updated. Usually, when a new episode is found, you
do two things: Either you mark it as old or download it. After the marking
(or download), the episode loses its "New" status and is either shown in
the "Downloaded" list or not.
In other words, "New" episodes are considered episodes that need your
attention and a decision - "Hey, here's a new episode - do you want to
download it or not?".
You can really filter only downloaded files by using an EQL expression
that you can just start typing while the episode list is selected:
(downloaded)
The () are important here. This will filter the current episode list and
only show downloaded files. Similarly, you can narrow down your search
even further, e.g.:
(downloaded and audio)
Shows only audio files that have been downloaded.
(downloaded and video)
Shows only video files that have been downloaded. See src/gpodder/query.py
for some of the other adjectives and nouns that are supported by SQL.
With the reasoning above (and the alternative "workaround" using EQL), can
we close this bug as "wontfix"?
Thanks,
Thomas
