           Summary: Podcasts with quotes in name won't download
           Product: gPodder
           Version: 2.1
          Platform: n800
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: feature request
          Priority: low
         Component: Application
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


I tried to download the some of the Stanford podcasts, but the filenames end up
with a double-quote, ", in the name. You can see the RSS feed here:

http://deimos3.apple.com/WebObjects/Core.woa/Feed/itunes.stanford.edu.1352800252.01352800254

When you click on one of the links, you get a file name like:

HIST"136_L1-27062007

The N900 home directory is a VFAT file system, so it can't save these. The
forbidden characters are listed here:

It would be nice if gpodder either munged the filename somehow so that it saved
properly (probably the best), or gave an option to input a filename if saving
failed for some reason (maybe also good to handle out-of-space issues?).
