But there's another problem, which is related to consistency (again): the "top-most" podcast is selected by default, regardless if "Show 'All episodes' in podcast list" is enabled. Being the "top-most" on the list is just a coincidence, since it's based on alphabetical order. Nothing else. That's another reason why selecting "None" upon startup yields the most consistent approach. Just to illustrate this point, my "top-most" podcast is actually the least listened to, but it happens to be on the top only because it starts with an early letter in the alphabet. So when I launch gPodder, I'm greeted with a list of episodes for a podcast I don't care for as much as some other subscriptions. I'm not sure if version 2.10 contains the optimizations, but selecting "All episodes" still causes gPodder to hang while it loads the list of all episodes. On the bright side, I'll be "free" starting Thursday. :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.gpodder.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ gPodder-Bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/gpodder-bugs
