I switched over to MMW5 for podcasts and have been very happy with it. However, in the last few days, I've noticed that when podcasts download, the wrong info is appearing in certain fields.
Below is one sample that just downloaded now.
-Artist, album artist, and date fields all say 2024
-Podcast title is "11"
-Episode title appears to be maybe their internal file name.
You can see in the location and file name at the top that the podcast, (full) date, and title are correct, so it seems that MMW5 does have the info, but is not matching it to the correct fields?
All the podcasts where this has happened this week have previously downloaded just fine, so I'm hoping someone can tell me if this is happening all over, or if it's possible I accidentally changed something in my settings.
Podcast downloads mixing up fields?

Re: Podcast downloads mixing up fields?
Please provide the Podcast URL for which this is happening. Which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey are you seeing this with?

Re: Podcast downloads mixing up fields?
Thanks for the reply!
I'm using 5.0.5.2695
It's a bunch of different URLs! Of my 10 most recent downloads (all different podcast feeds), 2 came through fully correct. The remaining 8 all have 2024 in the "artist" field; some have just that one error and some have other fields mixed up as well.
Here are two samples that had issues with multiple fields:
https://feeds.simplecast.com/0T4plG50
https://feeds.simplecast.com/mJyHMcz_
Hope that helps! I'd been correcting them manually as they came in, which makes it hard to go back and remember which ones were wrong. But I can make better note on upcoming downloads if more examples are helpful.

Re: Podcast downloads mixing up fields?
Do you have On download, tag episodes based on data from podcast feed enabled? Both Podcasts provided work as expected on the latest MediaMonkey 2024 release.
