Re: Podcast question

2020-07-14 Thread Lisa Belville

Hi, Steve.


If there is a way to completely rewind to the end or beginning of a 
podcast in Downcast I can't find it, either and I've been using the app 
for several years.



But you can move back in forth in various increments that might help.


While your podcast is playing in Downcast, move to the top of the screen 
with a four finger single tap.  Now you can swipe right to a Rewind 
fifteen and a rewind 30 seconds button.  The next two right swipes move 
to fast forward 30 seconds and 2 minutes buttons.  Two more right swipes 
takes you to an episode play position slider This will move you back or 
forward in increments of around four minutes in either direction.



Why the option to move in larger increments isn't located next to the 
other movement buttons is beyond me.



You can also move fifteen seconds forward or backward using the buttons 
on the lock screen.



hope this helps some.


Lisa

Try Overcast.
It is free and works great with VoiceOver and has some extra features like 
being able to speed up the podcast, or reduce the silences.
I don't recall exactly where those settings are, but I'd recommend downloading 
it and exploring its settings.

RE: Podcast app question and overall general podcast question

2013-09-03 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Shane,

At one point Apple did somewhat control what Podcasts you could listen to
with their app. I really am not an authority on the Apple Podcast app since
I only used it very little when it first came out. I was at first excited
and thought this would be good, but I think most people were quite
disappointed by it. It definitely was not the polished it just works kind
of product Apple is known for. They had some sort of catalogue and I think
if a particular Podcast was not part of that you couldn't get it.
I think at this point this restriction is lifted so you should be able to
find most Podcasts you find with Downcast or if not use a specific URL/feed.
I only listen regularly to about 2 or 3 different Podcasts and I really like
Downcast so at this point I don't see much reason to use the Apple Podcast
app.
As for not being able to stream, I assume there might be a setting in the
Apple Podcast app (possibly you have to access it via the Settings app)
where maybe by default streaming over 3G/LTE is turned off. Once again, this
is just a guess.


Regards,
Sieghard

Ah gotcha Sieghart... So, are you limited to what podcast you can download
depending on what app you use? In other words, if you chose the Apple
Podcasts app, would you find only what Apple wanted you to, and with
Downcast, you would have more of a selection to choose from, as the
ppodcasts would be coming from different feeds? 
I was able to stream a podcast from Podcasts, I had no Internet at my house,
so I went to a friends house, and it streamed. I'm thinking maybe that's why
it didn't stream.
Thanks as always for your informative assistance bro.

 Hi Shane,
 
 The Podcast app of choice for most people on this list as well as many 
 sighted people is Downcast. It is a very feature rich Podcast app and 
 whether you download or stream your Podcasts is completely 
 customizable. You can even set it to download certain Podcasts while 
 you not do so for others and you can tell it whether to allow 
 streaming via 3G or restrict it to Wi-Fi only.
 The same goes for what to do with the Podcasts after you stream or 
 download them. You can tell it globally to keep no Podcasts, to only 
 keep unplayed Podcasts, to keep a certain number of unplayed or a 
 certain number of all Podcasts. Then once again you can overwrite the 
 global setting by defining a different setting for a certain Podcast, 
 individual settings always have priority over the global setting.
 Downcast is fully Voiceover friendly and I believe there is a Podcast 
 about it on Applevis.
 It is very easy to search for Podcasts by name, by URL or to import them.
 You can even make Playlists, for example, if you have 3 different tech 
 Podcasts, you could make a playlist for them.
 If Apple was smart they'd buy out Downcast. OK, so maybe that was a 
 poor choice of words, I am not implying they are not smart *smile*, 
 but there are definitely apps which do what some of their stock apps 
 do which are way better. Given Apple's resources compared to say those 
 of the developer of Downcast I find this rather interesting.
 
 Just for completeness sake, the app iCatcher which is another Podcast 
 app is also fully Voiceover accessible and quite good, but I think if 
 it came down to a vote more people would vote for Downcast. When I 
 just looked up the links I noticed iCatcher said at the top of the app 
 description that it was on sale. However, the price of $2.99 I wrote 
 down below is what was listed and I thought that was the regular 
 price. I did buy the app a long time ago so if I look it up on my 
 iPhone or in iTunes when I am signed in it only asks me to download it 
 since I once bought it and I can't see if the price there shows up
differently. Anyhow, here are the links:

Hello Ketan,

I don't think you can directly sync Podcasts from Downcast to your computer
unless maybe you were using a Mac and purchased the Downcast app which from
the Mac App Store which came out a few weeks ago.
If you are using a PC it would probably be easiest if you exported your
Podcast list from Downcast and imported it to iTunes and then use iTunes to
manage which Podcasts you want to keep or not keep.
Maybe somebody who does more with Podcasts has a better suggestion, I just
listen to a few Podcasts on my iPhone and for the most part I delete them
afterwards. If there really is one I want to download to my computer I
usually just do so from whichever Podcast website it is on.

Sieghard

I totally endorse your views about Downcaste.  Only there is one issue
that I need to know and have not yet discovered:

How do I get all my podcast files on to my PC and delete them from
Iphone once downloaded for future preservation?  Please do let me know
as to how do I sync in a way that my music or other podcastes will

 Hi Shane,
 
 The Podcast app of choice for most people on this list as well as many 
 sighted people is Downcast. It is a very feature rich Podcast app and 
 whether you download or stream your Podcasts is completely 
 customizable. You can even set it to download certain Podcasts while 
 you not do so for others and you can tell it whether to allow 
 streaming via 3G or restrict it to Wi-Fi only.
 The same goes for what to do with the Podcasts after you stream or 
 download them. You can tell it globally to keep no Podcasts, to only 
 keep unplayed Podcasts, to keep a certain number of unplayed or a 
 certain number of all Podcasts. Then once again you can overwrite the 
 global setting by defining a different setting for a certain Podcast, 
 individual settings always have priority over the global setting.
 Downcast is fully Voiceover friendly and I believe there is a Podcast 
 about it on Applevis.
 It is very easy to search for Podcasts by name, by URL or to import them.
 You can even make Playlists, for example, if you have 3 different tech 
 Podcasts, you could make a playlist for them.
 If Apple was smart they'd buy out Downcast. OK, so maybe that was a 
 poor choice of words, I am not implying they are not smart *smile*, 
 but there are definitely apps which do what some of their stock apps 
 do which are way better. Given Apple's resources compared to say those 
 of the developer of Downcast I find this rather interesting.
 
 Just for completeness sake, the app iCatcher which is another Podcast 
 app is also fully Voiceover accessible and quite good, but I think if 
 it came down to a vote more people would vote for Downcast. When I 
 just looked up the links I noticed iCatcher said at the top of the app 
 description that it was on sale. However, the price of $2.99 I wrote 
 down below is what was listed and I thought that was the regular 
 price. I did buy the app a long time ago so if I look it up on my 
 iPhone or in iTunes when I am signed in it only asks me to download it 
 since I once bought it and I can't see if the price there shows up
 differently. Anyhow, here are the links:
 
 Downcast: $1.99
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/downcast/id393858566?mt=8

 Hi,

 it for awhile, and noticed that you now have to download the podcast 
 versese just streaming it to the phone. I thought at one time, you 
 could stream them instead of downloading them, was U wrong here?
 Is there an app like Podcast that gives you the option to stream them, 
 but has the same amount of content? Also, when you subscribe to a 
 certain podcast, does it put the podcast in your phone, then you 
 download it, or is it already downloaded for youV And finally, what's

Actually this thread prompted me to go out and buy Downcast.  After opening
it, I double tapped on add podcasts and got a list of categories.  One of
the categories I looked at was news and politics.  I saw several video
podcasts among those listed there.  In a few cases there was a video and an
audio version listed separately.
   Haven't played with it enough to know if you can get a video only list
but there are definitely video podcasts available.  I guess the most
definite way to find out would be to do a search on the particular podcast
which interests you.  That is very easy as well using Siri.
   Good luck.

Shane,

You can set whether you want to download any Podcasts in the global
settings.
Double tap the More tab at the bottom right of the screen. Now double tap
Settings at the top of the screen. Find the New Episode Action heading.
Underneath that double tap of whichever option is selected, you will get the
following list of choices:
Do Nothing
Download All New
Download most recent
Mark all new for streaming
Mark most recent for streaming

You can then also set which episodes to keep a bit further down in the
settings and tell Downcast if Automatic Downloading should be done Never,
Always or on WiFi only.

If you set your global settings, for example, you tell Downcast to Mark all
new for streaming, but you want to download the  but most recent for a
particular Podcast, you can do this by double tapping on that Podcast, then
double tap on the Settings button at the bottom right of that screen. Here
you can change the global settings for that Podcast only and whichever
settings you choose will take priority over the global settings.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hi Shane,

At one point Apple did somewhat control what Podcasts you could listen to
with their app. I really am not an authority on the Apple Podcast app since
I only used it very little when it first came out. I was at first excited
and thought this would be good, but I think most people were quite
disappointed by it. It definitely was not the polished it just works kind
of product Apple is known for. They had some sort of catalogue and I think
if a particular Podcast was not part of that you couldn't get it.
I think at this point this restriction is lifted so you should be able to
find most Podcasts you find with Downcast or if not use a specific URL/feed.
I only listen regularly to about 2 or 3 different Podcasts and I really like
Downcast so at this point I don't see much reason to use the Apple Podcast
app.
As for not being able to stream, I assume there might be a setting in the
Apple Podcast app (possibly you have to access it via the Settings app)
where maybe by default streaming over 3G/LTE is turned off. Once again, this
is just a guess.

Ah gotcha Sieghart... So, are you limited to what podcast you can download
depending on what app you use? In other words, if you chose the Apple
Podcasts app, would you find only what Apple wanted you to, and with
Downcast, you would have more of a selection to choose from, as the
ppodcasts would be coming from different feeds?
I was able to stream a podcast from Podcasts, I had no Internet at my house,
so I went to a friends house, and it streamed. I'm thinking maybe that's why
it didn't stream.
Thanks as always for your informative assistance bro.

Subject: Podcast app question and overall general podcast question

Hi,
So I downloaded the Apple Podcast app again yesterday, after not using it
for awhile, and noticed that you now have to download the podcast versese
just streaming it to the phone. I thought at one time, you could stream them
instead of downloading them, was U wrong here?
Is there an app like Podcast that gives you the option to stream them, but
has the same amount of content? Also, when you subscribe to a certain
podcast, does it put the podcast in your phone, then you download it, or is
it already downloaded for youV
And finally, what's the best way to delete them from the Podcast app? I see
the podcast, then recently played, and a few other places where the podcast
is at within the app.
Thanks for all help, Shane.

Re: Podcast app question and overall general podcast question

2013-09-02 Thread Shane clark
Ah gotcha Sieghart... So, are you limited to what podcast you can download 
depending on what app you use? In other words, if you chose the Apple Podcasts 
app, would you find only what Apple wanted you to, and with Downcast, you would 
have more of a selection to choose from, as the ppodcasts would be coming from 
different feeds? 
I was able to stream a podcast from Podcasts, I had no Internet at my house, so 
I went to a friends house, and it streamed. I'm thinking maybe that's why it 
didn't stream.
Thanks as always for your informative assistance bro.

 Hi Shane,
 
 The Podcast app of choice for most people on this list as well as many
 sighted people is Downcast. It is a very feature rich Podcast app and
 whether you download or stream your Podcasts is completely customizable. You
 can even set it to download certain Podcasts while you not do so for others
 and you can tell it whether to allow streaming via 3G or restrict it to
 Wi-Fi only.
 The same goes for what to do with the Podcasts after you stream or download
 them. You can tell it globally to keep no Podcasts, to only keep unplayed
 Podcasts, to keep a certain number of unplayed or a certain number of all
 Podcasts. Then once again you can overwrite the global setting by defining a
 different setting for a certain Podcast, individual settings always have
 priority over the global setting.
 Downcast is fully Voiceover friendly and I believe there is a Podcast about
 it on Applevis.
 It is very easy to search for Podcasts by name, by URL or to import them.
 You can even make Playlists, for example, if you have 3 different tech
 Podcasts, you could make a playlist for them.
 If Apple was smart they'd buy out Downcast. OK, so maybe that was a poor
 choice of words, I am not implying they are not smart *smile*, but there are
 definitely apps which do what some of their stock apps do which are way
 better. Given Apple's resources compared to say those of the developer of
 Downcast I find this rather interesting.
 
 Just for completeness sake, the app iCatcher which is another Podcast app is
 also fully Voiceover accessible and quite good, but I think if it came down
 to a vote more people would vote for Downcast. When I just looked up the
 links I noticed iCatcher said at the top of the app description that it was
 on sale. However, the price of $2.99 I wrote down below is what was listed
 and I thought that was the regular price. I did buy the app a long time ago
 so if I look it up on my iPhone or in iTunes when I am signed in it only
 asks me to download it since I once bought it and I can't see if the price
 there shows up differently. Anyhow, here are the links:
 
 Downcast: $1.99
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/downcast/id393858566?mt=8
 
 iCatcher: $2.99

Dear Sieghard,

I totally endorse your views about Downcaste.  Only there is one issue
that I need to know and have not yet discovered:

How do I get all my podcast files on to my PC and delete them from
Iphone once downloaded for future preservation?  Please do let me know
as to how do I sync in a way that my music or other podcastes will
come along?

With best wishes,

Ketan

RE: Podcast question

2012-12-31 Thread Sandy Finley
Grant, what you want to do is not a Windows function; it is controlled
through your particular podcast app. I personally use Downcast and have
found I can control which podcasts are downloaded. I have it set to download
new content for my specified ppodcasts every time I open it.  Then I have it
deleting all played podcasts. You can control the playback speed and have it
play continuously. And if you stop mid-podcast it remembers where you were
when you go back.

If you find them helpful, there is a tutorial podcast on AppleVis. HTH.
