Hi Shaun, Glad the VO-keys+backslash to open Podcast folders worked for you. Two quick additions:
1. Working with folders in closed format is useful to speed navigating through the Songs Outlines with your arrow keys and is also useful when you want to work with the folder as a whole -- for example, if you want to add all episodes of a podcast subscription to a playlist for listening or burning to CD. The VO-keys+backslash toggle for opening and closing files is useful to know so you can choose either format. 2. You can easily check on the folder open/close status by arrowing right to select the second column in the Songs Outline for podcasts when you interact. The Songs outline behaves like finder, so VO-keys+shift+c gives you the heading for the column. The first column is status, for whether the episode is unplayed/played; the second is name, and gives the name of the podcast episode or of your podcast subscription if you're at the folder level. If you interact and VO-keys+right arrow once to the "name" column you should hear "expanded" if the folder is open. This saves you having to listen to VoiceOver recite all the information about the podcast and you can quickly check if the folder is "expanded". Other way is just toggle with VO-keys+backslash and down arrow to see whether your episodes have appeared. Hope this helps. (I'm only on in short bursts right now).
