same here. no error message, .. the podcast just doesn't show up in my list.
I successfully added a few podcast, (chinesepod.com/feed and spanishpod.com/feed). but more recently http://feeds.feedburner.com/German-podcast and http://www.arabicpod.net/feed/lessons just don't show up when I add them. No error messages or anything like that, ... they just don't show up. Also, maybe this is a separate bug. .. but is inline with the same general issue of lack of error handling: I tried multiple times under the config menu to change the directory to which podcasts are downloaded. Every time, if I closed the app and re- opened, it was set back to my home directory. I tried adding a couple of other podcasts (which successfully showed up in the list of podcasts) but which failed to downloaded the actual mp3 files. There were no informative error messages, it just said "failed". I changed the download directory to ~/Podcasts/, and now those podcasts that were failing to download files are downloading properly. I don't want these in my home directory (it's in a partition that I don't want to use for file storage)... and I don't want to have to copy them all manually. The partition where I am trying to store the files is a fat32 partition. I do have write permission on that directory, ... but it's possible that rhythmbox is trying to do something like change timestamps or permissions or something in a way that can't be done, and then just failing ungracefully when it doesn't work. Whatever the problem is, the interface should at a minimum give some kind of feedback about why the podcast didn't download, or didn't add, etc. -- Will not subscribe to podcast address when I add it. It just ignores the input and lists zero podcasts. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/230879 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
