Summary | 0017080: Podcast Options tweaks | ||||
Description | In the Downloads/Podcasts Options 1) Change 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' to 'Keep updating episode data with feed data (slower)' [by to with] 2) Change 'On download, tag episodes based on data from Podcast feed' to 'On download, tag episodes based on data from podcast feed' [Capitalization error] 3) Consider moving 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' as a sub-option of 'On download, tag episodes based on data from Podcast feed' which would mean disabling 'On download, tag episodes based on data from Podcast feed' would disable 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' too. If user doesn't want to tag from feed there is no need to keep tagging from feed on future updates. In each individual Podcast Settings 4) Consider adding 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' as a sub-option of 'On download, tag episodes based on data from Podcast feed'. This would allow this slower option to be applied to selected Podcasts, thus the slower update be limited to selected Podcasts. | ||||

3&4) 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' and 'On download, tag episodes based on data from Podcast feed' are not related. The first is slower as on each podcast update it goes through all the rss feed and updates the tag changes for episodes that haven't been downloaded yet. The 'On download, tag episodes based on data from Podcast feed' overwrites the tags regardless of the 'Keep updating episode...' enabled or disabled. Moving the 'Keep upating..' option below the 'On download...' option would indicate that the tags are updated after the episodes were already downloaded, but this is not true currently. |

I think we should rather eliminate 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' option entirelly for several reaosns: - poor performance when updating podcasts - it is not very common that the publisher changes the episode metadata after publishing the episode - currently it only updates metadata for episodes that haven't been downloaded yet - overwriting the metadata of already downloaded episodes could be rather dangerous / undesired (as user could already tag the episodes by owns data / comments) - seeing that this option is enabled by default in MM4 (unlike MM5) so all users updating from MM4 will have this option enabled (with poor performance of updating podcasts) !! EDIT: I changed the default in MM4 as 0015236, but I guess it is just too late for MM4 ;-) |

Fixed in 2274 i.e. - removed the 'Keep updating episode data by feed data (slower)' option entirelly for the reasons noted above - fixed the capitalization tweak in string 'On download, tag episodes based on data from podcast feed' |
