> What version of Ubuntu do you use? The latest (Edgy). I am also testing Feisty and AFAICR it's not better.
> Do you have an example of podcast where you got the problem already? I have a variety of podcasts and they all have this problem. Again, the problem isn't wit the podcast server, but my ISP/internet connexion. In the middle of the night, the podcasts download just fine, but in the evening, that is the "rush hours" ;-), it gets more challenging ! ;-) Here are some feeds anyway (France Inter, Europe1, The BBC, LUG radio): http://radiofrance-podcast.net/podcast/rss_10212.xml http://www.europe1.fr/podcast/connaissance.jsp http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rmhttp/downloadtrial/worldservice/digitalplanet/rss.xml http://www.lugradio.org/episodes.ogg.rss > Could you try to get a log of what is happening when it hangs with "rhythmbox > -d"? Sure. It will have to wait this evening though, as it's only 9h30 right now and it works fine, not much traffic on the French network at this time of day ;-) -- Podcast download mechanism isn't robust enough and often fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/78524 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
