- i did a search of the forum and didn't see this issue. here's how to reproduce it:
set "auto add to playlist" to yes. download a few podcasts from different subscriptions. Delete one of the subscriptions.
what i'm seeing is that between every file now in the auto playlist, i get an error saying it's looking for a podcast from the deleted subscription.
so i think the bug is - when a subscription is deleted, remove those podcasts from the auto-playlist.
- When getting a phone call Podtrapper throws an uncaught exception 162 and it allows my phone call and then I just start it back up when I'm finished.
- Ensure we load the bottom feeds as well as the top looking for new episodes

- One other "bug" but I'm not sure if it's a bug or designed that way. I'll let you tell me. If I'm listening to a podcast and get anywhere into it and then reboot the phone it goes away from the playlist. For example, I have all of my podcasts go to the default playlist. I love this feature as it gives me all my recent podcasts in one place. Say I'm listening to Podcast A. It's a 20 min podcast and I listen to 2 mins of it 'cuz it's at the top of the list. It's bed time and I decide I'll listen to the podcast at length in the morning. So I turn my phone off and go to bed. In the morning when I turn my phone back on, that podcast won't be in the default playlist any more. It'll still be on the phone and I can still go to the Podcast A section and listen to that episode, but it won't be on the playlist even though it's still mostly unplayed. It's like the only podcasts that stay there are those that are 0% played

- With the release of 3.0.6, on my OS5 BB 9700, any event (such as a calendar entry reminder, or even plugging the phone to wall to charge) while watching a video Podcast results in the video being stopped, and when I try to get it going again, the audio plays but the video is blank.
- Symbol key doesn't work on BB when adding podcasts
- 1. Start video podcast.
2. Press red button to leave video but allow audio to continue.
3. Pause podcast using mute rocker button.
4. Go back to PT.
5. Play podcast.
At this point the audio continues, but the video is not there. I just see a blank screen. I can go Option button --> PodTrapper to get the video to display again. I would think that if PT has focus then the video should be showing. It doesn't seem to happen if I pause without the mute rocker button.
- so im in the list view of podcasts for a single feed. currently playing one item. when i delete the currently playing item, it seems to delete the item before it but keep that items name and use the content of the currently playing... for example if i am listening to the 12/10 podcast, and its almost over so i delete it, the 12/10 title disappears. then the title for the 12/17 podcast is highlighted which i then play, however, even though the title says 12/17, it seems to be playing the 12/10 over again. i have not had a chance to double check, but i would find it odd if the wait wait podcast sent out a duplicate of the prior week...
