Hi Rüdiger, replacing the IDs in the feeds is unlikley to be an issue on the technical level, we have all that information in the FeedGenerator, so we can simply replace the ide with the item's link (which contains the id, so it's still a vaild guid).
However, the updated feeds are likley to show up in feed readers as "unread" with all items showing as "new", resulting in the download of those recordings.
