Deleting a Podcast with the Wrong URL?

New postby Bluewind on Wed Jan 20, 2010 4:15 pm

I accidentally manually added a couple of podcast that have an incorrect URL. Podtrapper tries to download them without success but I cannot find a way to either delete each incorrect podcast or delete the playlist. Any ideas?

Thanks.

From PT's main screen, highlight the podcast and hit the delete key. You can also use Menu->Delete Podcast

Thanks for the response. Perhaps I am using a different version of Podtrapper than you but the "broken podcasts" with the wrong URL do not show up in my list of podcasts I have subscribed to. For example, one of the podcasts has .XM instead of .XML at the end the URL. Podtrapper tries to download from the URL regularly but cannot find anything at the URL.

I'll keep looking for a solution.

If you haven't already, check the following:
-Podcasts don't get their proper names until the first update. Until then, the name of the podcast is its URL. Check under "H" (for HTTP) on the main screen.
-Check to make sure that "View w/ Ready Eps" isn't selected. From the main screen, you will have one of two options available. If you see "View w/ Ready Eps", then you should be OK. If you see "View All", then select that option.

Thanks for the clue about viewing all podcasts. When I viewed all, the bad ones showed up and I was able to delete them. Thanks.

Thanks for this thread, I need to include bad feeds in the view regardless of the view settings, I think.
