A headless podcast downloader.

News

  • 1.1 Released!
  • 1.1 comes with a number of new features, a new database format and a few bug fixes.
  • See CHANGELOG for a full list of changes since the last release.

Note the 1.1 release uses a new database format. 1.0.x databases are not compatible. It is recommended to delete the episodes.db file and run using the -init option to re-mark episodes as downloaded.

Features

  • Use the If-Modified-Since header to only download RSS feeds that have changed since the last full download.
  • Use of the If-Modified-Since header can be disabled on a global or per podcast basis if necessary.
  • Optionally can ignore downloading episodes marked as explicit with the
    <explicit>
    tag.
  • Tries to set the correct file name when dealing with redirects. For example http://somepodcastsite.com/redirect.mp3?http://realsite.com/realpodcast.mp3 will be saved as realpodcast.mp3 not redirect.mp3.
  • Does not have a GUI. Runs as a background task. Suitable for headless servers.
  • Uses a user configurable number of download threads to download in parallel.
  • Has the ability to check the amount of free disk space and only download if there is more space free than a user set minimum.
  • Can either download all new episodes or only a maximum number of new episodes.
