Screen Information

This screen shows you the list of episodes for a given podcast. It can be configured to show episodes in various states. It defaults to showing episodes that haven't been deleted (whether they are downloaded or not).

The progress bar below each item indicates its current status:

  • Not Marked For Download - This episode won't be automatically downloaded, download it via the '[re]Download episode' menu item
  • Waiting to Download - This episode is queued for download and will be downloaded when it gets to the top of the queue
  • x% Downloaded - This episode is in the process of downloading (note it may have been interrupted due to coverage issues, but it will be resumed)
  • x% Listened - This episode has finished downloading and is ready for listening (or has been listened to)

Deleted episodes (if shown) will be dim and indicate that they have been deleted in their subtitle.
