Podcasts Organized in Folders or by Colors

New postby JHold on Sun Oct 18, 2009 8:33 pm

I have several podcasts that are all offerings from the same website (CNet.com) or genre (Spanish, Blackberry). A way to group them visually would be most helpful. You might consider folders, colored headers, or a tree directory. I also thought changing the border color of the podcast icon might be a way.

The idea is: I would like all my CNet podcasts grouped together, all my Spanish podcasts grouped together...

All in all PodTrapper is a great product, well worth the money. Keep up the good work, and thanks!

Not sure what the usage scenario is, but here are a couple of interim options that may get you close to what you want.

If you want them together for playback reasons, you can create multiple playlists ("CNet", "Spanish", etc), and set each podcast to auto-add to the relevant playlist(s).

If you want them together visually on the main screen, you can change the "view order" for each podcast. The main screen sorts podcasts first by view order (ascending) then by podcast name (ascending). If you give all your CNet podcasts the same view order number, they'll show up together on the main screen.

When you change the settings for one podcast, remember you can apply the same settings to a subset of your other podcasts at the same time.

I need both ... playlists as well as folder organization. The number of podcasts I'm tracking is getting long, and for some topics I build custom playlists instead of creating them automatically. It would be nice to separate the podcasts into categories.

While not colored, the tags should work for this. What do you think?
