--- Comment #1 from b...@mogwai.be --- Sorry for not responding earlier. First of all: there are other free gpodder-based servers than the main official one, which seems to be broken for a very long time now. So maybe you could search around for one. Then, about the topic itself: I'm afraid that syncing is a little bit more complicated than just sending and retrieving files if more than one client is involved. You really need a server backend that deals with conflicts, timestamps and deduplication. By the way, Kasts is a founding member of the openpodcastapi.org project to define a new, open standard for podcast and episode syncing. The idea is that you would get a larger choice of clients and servers to choose from. That should include some really basic servers, or servers you can get a free account on (like funkwhale). Quite a few client and server projects are already involved. So, given the fact that I'm putting quite a lot of time into that more general project, I don't really have the time nor ambition to support yet another implementation. By the way, if you're interested in syncing only one client (i.e. basically doing backups), you can simply copy the database and the enclosures folder to and from a (webdav) server, which should be easy to script. This should also work across computers if you manually keep track of who did the last update. So, thinking about this last bit: maybe it would be useful to have "backup" and "restore" buttons in the settings that would allow to import/export the database from the Settings GUI? That might go some way towards your goal? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
