Eventually I'll switch to OS 4.3 for a target which will let me see which methods are available and specify an order which they should be connected. For now, though, all I can do is either set *an* output method, or not set any and let the BB manage it (the 'Auto' mode in PodTrapper).
So, to answer your question, the only thing you can do now for it to try to pick the best method first is to set 'Auto'. If you set a specific method, it will apply until you plug something else in, in which case the bb will auto switch to that method, but PodTrapper can't know this.
Then, when it goes to play something again, PodTrapper again sets up the specific method, and you'd need to replug in the thing you plugged in last time to switch it (or choose that specific method from the menu). Setting it to auto lets the BB choose every time.
Hopefully that doesn't just confuse you more, let me know
On the episode details thing, you're seeing this with 1.8.4?
