I think you have to sync them all if you have automatic sync enabled.

sync with my i pod video or do i have to sync them all?
You can check which podcasts you want to sync and the guidelines you
want to apply. VO-right to the tab for "Podcasts" when your iPod Nano
4G is connected.. There's a checkbox that looks like:
Sync <popup menu> episodes
the popup menu lets you choose episodes according to how recent they
are, whether they are unplayed and various combinations of these
(including "All" e.g. "All" "1 most recent", "2 most recent", "3 most
recent", "5 most recent", "10 most recent", "All unplayed", etc. ---
I'm not going to type in all the various combinations).
You can apply these criteria to "All Podcasts" or to "Selected
Podcasts" If you apply the rules to "Selected Podcasts" you get to
check which ones you want.
If you want to handle any other combination (e.g., you want the 3 most
recent unplayed episodes of most of your podcasts, but for one or two
subscriptions you want everyhting), then you can always make up a
smart playlist to handle this. (Rules would be "Podcast is True" and
"Album is <name of your podcast>"). Then you would check that as one
of the selected playlists you want sync'd on your Music tab table of
selected playlists. This is just an example since you could obviously
make up playlists in any way you want.
Cheers,
Esther
