No RSS feed. I tried

ftp.hostname.com/program/%Y-%m%d/%m%d_program_*.mp3

but both %d wildcards pull the same day each time. The first one needs to keep Monday's date while the second one does Monday through Friday.

I need to keep this all within rdcatch, no scripts or exotic solutions. If it can't be done in rdcatch, then the staff will have to go back to manual daily downloads like they were doing prior to Rivendell.

Yes, there are more.

One program I need to download has a troublesome file structure.

There is a folder for the program, then a folder for each week beginning
on Monday. The weekly folder holds the files for that week. For example:

ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1214/1214_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1214/1215_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1214/1216_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1214/1217_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1214/1218_program_episode-name.mp3

ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1221/1221_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1221/1222_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1221/1223_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1221/1224_program_episode-name.mp3
ftp.hostname.com/program/2020-1221/1225_program_episode-name.mp3


This looks to me like:

ftp.hostname.com/program/%Y-%m%d/%m%d_program_episode-name.mp3

This only works if "program_episode-name" does not change from episode
to episode. At this time, Rivendell does not support arbitrary
differences in download filenames. Does this program have an RSS feed?
If so, I might be able to help with a script I wrote specifically for
downloading and ingesting audio from an RSS feed.

etc.

I can't figure out how to set up a wildcard to deal with the weekly
folder with Monday's date.

This is a popular program that quite a few stations carry, so I'm sure
there must be a way to automate it.

Thanks for any ideas.

Michael
