podcast download issue [solved]
« on: September 17, 2009, 07:04:41 am »

Hey,

Am having an issue with podcast downloading. When I hit the download button it does not download, but just continues to say "0 %" in the status line, and in the lower left of the screen is says "completed" - all this happens in one or two seconds after I have pressed "download episode".

I can play the episode as a feed without any problems, but I need the download, to take with me on my ipod.

I have no problems downloading episodes on itunes, but I need to get them through MC as I dont want to switch program just because I cant get it to work with MC.

The strange thing is that on my laptop, I have same version on MC installed, and on that one it downloads just fine...

Can anyone point me in a good direction here - thanks :-)

Jesper.

Hi Jesper.  Did you try a search to see if it has already been downloaded?  Maybe filed as data instead of audio?

Hi Jim,
The file hasnt already been downloaded - so that is not the reason.

I should add this to the description:
After having been stuck some time, the status info changes into "failed" - so MC concludes thereby that it did not get the download, after 3 retries.

Solved! 
Checked in "options", and noticed that the location for the downloaded podcasts were set the to the d-drive..which is my dvd-bd burner...
So this is what happens when the location is set to the burner :-)

When I set another, existing location, it downloads just fine :-)
