the patch
Hello. I've recently switched from an iPod to a Sony Ericsson mobile
phone, which is accessible as an MTP device. It has support for
podcasts, but it only recognizes tracks as podcasts if they're in
certain folders, namely:
Music/podcast
Video/podcast
Picture/podcast
Tracks from these folders show up in the "Podcasts" menu, are
highlighted until played and per-file playback positions are
remembered.
gPodder currently sends all episodes to the root folder, which makes
them regular MP3 files, without podcast-specific properties. I'm
attaching a patch which adds configurable folders for audio, video and
image podcasts. There is also a new option to create folders per
podcast (e.g., Music/podcast/No Agenda). The complete list of added
config options is:
mtp_audio_folder (str)
mtp_video_folder (str)
mtp_image_folder (str)
mtp_podcast_folders (bool)
These options are only editable using the extended config editor, no
UI.
A patched version of pymtp is required for this to work on modern
systems, see <https://bugs.gpodder.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307>.
The patch applies to revision 85ba576213 from git. I would like to
read improvement suggestions and bug reports.
PS: image podcasts only work in theory, I was unable to make gPodder
synchronize a Flickr RSS feed. Pictures just aren't seen as episodes,
although the files are downloaded. This is a separate issue.
