Repeat downloads of podcast episode

Post by Brian Siano »

There's a single episode of a podcast that keeps downloading every time I Update Podcasts, creating multiple copies in my music library.

I'm sure the problem is on my end-- I'd had to re-download that episode, and probably didn't do it right-- but does anyone have any insight into why this should be happening? Are there tags or listings I can edit to fix this?

Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey 5 are you using?

5.0.1.2419.
I'll try updating. If I don't reply, assume it's fixed.

Nope, still happening.

It may have something to do with the one episode having a location that's a URL. If I remove that URL, think that'll fix it?

Are you saying that after downloading the Episode the Path remains set to URL of the episode, instead of the Path to the downloaded file?

Yes, sort of. The downloaded eps have a correct location, i.e., in my Podcasts directory. But there's one that always has an HTTP location. I can' delete it from the library, or remove the URL.

I just tried unsubscribing and resubscribing, and it may have cleared up the problem.

Strange, but good that you fixed it.
