  1. Cut silences

    After using for a while Overcast app for iPhone I appreciate the feature of automatic silences removal, to speed up the playback without spending up the speech. Basically you should define a maximum "pause" (=significantly quieter passage) between words and cut any additional pause you encounter. This can save up to 15% of the playback time. Of course, since you want to check volume level and not audio samples , you may find more efficient to work on the FFT coefficients in the compressed audio.

    Edit: The beta has been published. Please let me know how it works for you. Thanks

    A new beta will be available before the end of the week with a ‘silence skip’ feature.

    This feature will remain in beta for some time, because I guess it will need some tweaking, so please, try the beat and let me know if you’re having sound quality issue. Depending on the podcast I saved from 1.5% up to 20%

    Please subscribe to the beta channel (http://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/253911-how-to-join-the-beta-program) in order to test it and to give me some feedback

    Thanks

    Edit:
    Available in the latest v2.31.1

  4. Support scheme relative URIs

    Some podcasts (http://feeds.ancientfaith.com/GoForthAFR for example) are including schema relative URIs. See https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-scheme-relative-url for an explanation of these.

    Podcast Addict doesn't appear to understand these.

  5. Allow each podcast a custom default sort

    In custom settings should be an option for the default sort for each podcasts. Some are easiest by name (books), while date by oldest first (catch up on podcasts), date by newest first (normal podcasts). There should also be a default sort choice for any without a custom setting.

    In the next version I will add a setting in Settings/Display/Custom sort per podcast
    By default every podcast will display its episodes using the same order as the app last episodes/downloaded episodes/all episodes/…
    If you enable this new setting, you will be able to customize the sorting for each podcasts

    Edit: This feature is available in the new v2.23.2 version which is currently rolling out.
    The full rollout should be complete in a day or 2

  6. Sorting

    Would be very usefull to be able to sort on Priority then by date. This would ensure that the newest of your favorites is allways on top

    Available in v3.38

    ==========

    Sorry for the delay…
    This feature will be available in v3.38 but only for the playlist

    Edit: A beta with this feature will be available within the hour.
    Please test it and let me know how it works for you so I can customize it before releasing the final version.
    Thanks

  7. Move Chromecast button global

    You should have Chromecast button visible everywhere, so we could connect to it before playing the video, and properly disconnect from it after playing the videos. (like Youtube, Daliymotion, ... )

    More details :
    When you reach the end of the playlist, you can no more open the player view, and thus you can't disconnect from Chromecast anymore.
    Also, we must first start playing a video to connect to the Chromecast : this leads to first seconds of video being played on the device, that's annoying on short videos.

  8. Player's "Settings" sub-menu accessible from the Player's dropdown menu

    Currently (v2.22.2), the Player's "Settings" sub-menu is only accessible from PA's main settings menu. It would be convenient\intuitive to have the Player's settings sub-menu also accessible from the Player's dropdown menu.

    This could also apply to other "settings" sub-menus; Downloads, Playlist.

  9. Fix lock screen widget to work with Android Lollipop

    The widget does not work when 'Hide sensitive notification content' is set in Lollipop's 'Sound & notification' options.

    Google's 'Play Music' widget does work when this option is set.

  10. Please fix: crash at startup - KitKat 4.4.4 ART

    Sorry about this issue. The 2.17.2 version file has been corrupted during the upload and the app couldn’t be started anymore.
    Last version on the play store fixes this.
    Sorry about that mess…
    Feel free to update your play store review if you put a bad rating because if this ;)

    Thanks

  11. update the pending downloads page to allow for override of only wifi requirement for individual episode.

    I like the global setting to only download over wifi. However, sometimes I am away from wifi and want to download something to listen to. I might have 5 podcasts pending download. I'd like to be able to go into the pending downloads page, long press on the episode, and tell it to download even though I'm not on wifi.

    Until I implement a ‘real’ download manager, the next version will allow you to long press on an episode in the ‘Download manager screen’ and select ‘Force download’. This will allow to download THIS episode while bypassing the app network settings. This flag will reset when the app gets killed or the if the device is rebooted. If you don’t enable this in for the first episode in the download queue, then it won’t do anything until the 1st episode is downloaded.

    This will be implemented in the next version (v3.3)

    Edit: Delivered in v3.3

  12. Choix multiples de podcast avant action

    Serait il possible de permettre une multi sélection de podcast pour les actions et éviter ainsi de répéter unitairement l'action à faire ?

  13. Take podcast lengths from real file when possible, not metadata.

    Once a file is downloaded, you KNOW how long it is, and longer longer have to use the feed metadata. Lake Woebegone is ALWAYS 15:00 in the feed. Penn's Sunday School is always 00:00. Once the file is on the device, it should be trivial to see how long the file ACTUALLY is for sure.

  14. Audio Equalizer (EQ) settings function.

    Some podcasters play some songs in their episodes so it would be cool to have an EQ function like the one in "Play Music". Definitely not an ESSENTIAL function but I'm just putting this out there for the distant future.

  15. Add "reset progress" option to long-press menu for items in playlist

    I like this from within the individual podcasts view, but I'm dying for it from playlist (where I spend most time and most often want a quick way to reset progress without having to awkwardly slide the progress slider back).

  16. Download latest episode automatically after subscribing

    1st off, my settings are to automatically download new episodes.

    I would like it if the app would also automatically download the latest episode of every new podcast I subscribe to. This is not happening, not even after refreshing the podcasts manually.

    In podcast "description" screen, display the sum in Megabytes of downloaded podcast episodes. Also one option to order podcast by size occupied on SD card. I want to know the biggests podcast (sum of all episodes). Thanks.

    The next version will display the storage space used by the podcast in its description screen. Unfortunately there won’t be any sorting by space used at the podcast level as this would be too slow to update

    Those informations are now available in the app
