All releases of Armangil's podcatcher


Release Notes: The argument files specified with the --arguments option may now contain comments.


Release Notes: The generated playlists are now more informative (publication date information has been added to content titles). Some faulty feeds and subscription lists are now handled more gracefully (invalid URLs in such documents are now simply ignored instead of causing the whole document to be skipped).


Release Notes: A bug that failed to filter out some illegal characters in directory names when using the --restrictednames option was fixed. The --restrictednames option is now enabled by default. The sponsor message that appears in verbose mode was updated.


Release Notes: The help text that appears when the --help option is used was updated. The sponsor message that appears in verbose mode was updated.


Release Notes: This release adds support for yyyy.mm and yyyy formats for the --horizon option.


Release Notes: This release adds the --cachedir option for explicitly specifying the content cache directory independently from the state directory (specified using --dir), the --language option for selecting feeds by language, the --horizon option that prevents the downloading of content older than a given date, the --restrictednames option for using content file names that are acceptable for restrictive filesystems such as VFAT, and more robust handling of feeds that use the Media RSS module. A bug in update checking has been fixed.


Release Notes: This release fixes an RSS parsing bug for feeds that use the Yahoo! Media RSS module.


Release Notes: A --content option that specifies the types of content (MP3, audio, video, etc.) that are to be downloaded was added. All content is downloaded by default, rather than only MP3 as in previous versions. Strategies for downloading content in chronological order (chron_one, chron, chron_all) were added. An --order option that determines feed order was implemented along with a --checkforupdate option for informing the user when a new version is available, an --options option for reading options from a file, and an --arguments option for reading arguments from a file.


Release Notes: A status code and content type check is now performed when downloading a media file using HTTP. Upgrading is recommended.


Release Notes: A bug that caused incorrect cache filenames to be generated when an HTTP redirection message was received from a server has been fixed. Operating system and processor information have been added to the User-Agent HTTP header sent to Web servers.
