Ubuntu :: Podcast Fetcher/copy Script?
Mar 1, 2011
I know this is probably not the best place to ask, but I don't really know where else to go.I'm looking for a lightweight program that can run in the background all the time, and automatically download new podcasts from rss links I give it. Then when a certain device is plugged in USB, the program will automatically copy all the new files to a specific directory on that device.What I really don't want is to eithera) have to screw with this once setup the first timeb) mess with anything like a media player program: I want something lightweight and out of sight.

I would like to copy any new podcasts to my MP3 player from my Gpodder downloads. I would also like to delete any ones that are 3 days or older on both player and pc.
My player auto mounts as /media/COWON
and
the podcasts are in the directory AAPodcasts
so it is -
/media/COWON/AAPodcasts
On my pc they are in -
/home/lone/gpodder-downloads/LinuxOutlaws
/home/lone/gpodder-downloads/Twit
and so on and so on
Is there some script I could use?

just bought a HTC legend. and my last phone was the iPhone 3g, used to iTunes just downloading the podcasts then syncing them.
Is there a Ubuntu program that can not only download podcasts but sync with an android phone? then arrange the playlist from ubunutu side.
Not looking forward to manually transferring them over and arranging them on the mounted drive the phone creates.
Also not an option to download podcasts straight to the phone what with the plan I'm on

How can I subscribe to a podcast with banshee? I want to subscribe to the Lifehacker podcast but I can't figure out how to do so without iTunes.

When subscribing to new feed, rhythmbox downloads new episodes as it should. when restarting rhythmbox, the program does not download new episodes any more. only thing that works is deleting feed and re-installing.In Launchpad this is known as Bug #377189 There is also written that:"This bug was fixed in the package rhythmbox - 0.12.7-0ubuntu8"nksHow to Get and Install this Package?

I grabbed Amarok off Synaptic since it's the only full featured media player I could find with OPML import, audio and video podcasting, etc. (Sorry, audio-only Rhythmbox - any other suggestions? I want to sync podcasts to my iPod classic as well, and cut the ties to Win 7)Anyways on Amarok I was able to successfully import my 20+ podcast feeds in a couple of clicks with the OPML import, and I then downloaded a test audio podcast.
On trying to play this podcast, however, the progress bar just shot across the screen, no audio was produced, and the podcast ended right away.I tried playing a radio stream as well from the Internet/Radio feature and no audio there either. It definitely was not muted.
Is this an Ubuntu problem? Something with this 'GStreamer' thingy? - I don't know what that is, but I need to pretend I know something about this here fancy Ubuntu jargon. Amarok played a test .ogg I recorded using Sound Recorder but that's all I've gotten to work so far.And if this is worth reporting as a bug, could someone please let me know what additional logs or info I should submit to launchpad. (Since there's no crash, there's no automatic submit popup.)

I know Rhythmbox support Podcast, But I was wondering if there is any tool for Rhythmbox that would allow you Find, subscribe, and download audio podcasts from a podcast directory. that would save me from having to enter the urls. I think Amarok does that but I dont use the KDE desktop

I recently installed Chromium and went to listen to one of my favorite podcasts, only to find that it wouldn't play. Like the title says, it plays perfectly well in Firefox. Is there some Chromium extension I need in order to play .mp3 files?

I am using debian testing and I am having a problem were miro forgets its location in a podcast. Also, I cannot jump to a new position in the podcast. I have tried the unstable version as well and it exhibits the same problems. I receive these errors repeatedly in the terminal while playing a podcast:Code:2011-01-02 00:10:27,311 WARNING get_duration: caught exception: query failed

I have looked at several Podcast retrieving applications. However, none I have found so far do anything good with the Podcast information.
Almost every podcast contains tags that could be populated into metadata tags, it would seem, fairly easily. Having a podcast grabber that did so would certainly simplify using them on my iPod.

Played with rythmbox and banshee. Banshee lacks basic features that are necessary, and thythmbox is VERY unstable. Cannot finish playing a song, much less a podcast. Any recommendations? Was looking at Amorok and Exaile. What others are there?

I am currently running an Amahi server with Fedora 12. I use gpodder to download my podcasts. I have one podcast that i listen to that i need a username and password to download it. I am using version 2.1 on Fedora, i downloaded the latest version on my Ubuntu machine (2.5) and it works perfectly. its differences with Ubuntu (started my linux usage with Ubuntu). Could this be the result of a file gpodder uses not having the correct user permissions?

When I was in Win XP I was happy with iTunes; now in OSuse 11.2 it has been difficult to find a functional replacement for it. Banshee donwloads my video and audio podcasts but can't replay them within the program. I have to go manually (Dolphin) to the corresponding folders and replay them using mPlayer, which is not very handy / fiendly. I tried to install Miro, and so far has not worked (see post here)

I've downloaded some podcast files and I wonder how to set the genre field of their ID3 to "Podcast"? so that my phone can detect them as podcasts and play them in its media player.
I used ID3v2, ID3, ID3tool and blah, blah, blah! but all of them have a big hug list of know genres except the Podcast genre. And you can not choose a genre which is not in their list.
All I want is an ID3 tool to set the genre field of a MP3 file to exact word I want.

I am able to access XP shared folders through my netbook(linux). However, i wanted to copy files from XP infact folders using TERMINAL in my netbook, not copy and paste using my mouse. Are there any commands for it?

How to copy a Read-Only file in Linux and make the copy writable with a single cp command in Linux (Ubuntu 10.04)? The --no-preserve and --preserve seemed to be good candidates, except that they should "and" the mode flags, while what I am looking for is something that will "or" them (add +w mode).
More details: I have to import a repository from GIT to Perforce. I want that all Perforce depot files are Read-Only (that is how Perforce was designed), while all other files that were derived/copied from depot files are writable. Currently if a Makefile tries to copy a Read-Only file then the derived file will also be Read-only. This leads to build-errors when cp tries to overwrite Read-Only file second time. Of course the --force is a workaround here but then the derived file is also Read-Only. Also I do not want to mess with "chmod" after each "cp" command - I will do that only as the last resort.

I have a 160GB harddrive which I installed a F12, would like to upgrade to a bigger drive, but I hate to have to re-install everything.
Recommend a good disk copy utility? The utility should be able to not only copy files, but boot sector and everything. So I just need to make a copy, change my BIOS to boot from the new drive and run everything as before.

how do you copy an entire line and add that copy at the end of the same line?
For example, sometimes I rename a collection of files with a command like:
"mv oldfilename newfilename;"
I am able to add "mv" at the beginning, the semicolon at the end and sometimes replace a word in the middle, but... how to change a line "oldfilename" into "oldfilename oldfilename"... that is already long time a mystery to me...

My comp has two hard drives: 1: 300gb, 10,000rpm 2: 500gb, 7200 rpm. (Both drives are SATA).First drive is loaded with 10.04 and has many programs installed, tweaks and settings made etc. Second drive has 10.10, but no changes or progs installed.I want to wipe clean the second drive and copy the entire contents of first drive onto it This will save me the trouble of doing a clean install of 10.04 on the second drive and then having to install programs , change settings etc. Is there a program available that will let me do this, so that I won't have to make any changes to second drive after the first drive has been copied to, ie I won't even have to install grub? Note that I am a novice with linux and not very good with computers generally, so the program should have an easy to use gui

I've been backing up some of my older DVDs to my hard drive, as they were starting to get a bit scratched. Using 9.10, I had no problems. After updating to 10.04 yesterday, however, every method I try to use fails after copying about 80 to 120 MB.I'm running the amd64 version of 10.04, my optical drive is a TSSTcorp DVD+-RW TS-L632H, and I have installed libdvdcss2 from the Medibuntu repository. I can play the DVDs just fine, but I can't copy them.
Brasero craps out with "Error while burning. Data could not be written (Input/output error)", which based on some things I've read also pops up if data can't be read. I've tried the "Save Log" button, but the log is always empty. dd exits with "dd: reading `/dev/cdrom': Input/output error".dd_rescue starts showing nothing but bad blocks roughly at the same point where dd throws the I/O error, and if I run it in reverse, it starts showing bad blocks immediately.k3b seems to work... but it took nearly half an hour (which is a bit longer than it should have taken), it threw a "Problem while reading. Retrying from sector n" error three times, and VLC won't play the resulting ISO, either directly or mounted.
I would say that it seems like a problem with copy protection, except that I have libdvdcss2 installed and I can play the DVDs just fine. I just can't copy them to an ISO. And it's not a matter of the discs being too scratched or a problem with the drive, since as I said I can play them just fine, and I can copy them in Windows using MagicISO.Some of the DVDs I'm trying to copy aren't available anymore, but I'd hate to have to boot into Windows just to copy some discs since I do pretty much everything else in Linux.

I am upgrading a QNAP NAS - the unit only had 1 drive to begin with. I have taken this original drive out and hooked it to my ubuntu system and when I boot my machine ubuntu sees the volume that was the volume the qnap shared. and it sees MOST of the files. but when I go to copy stuff it gives errors stating things like 'can't copy data2.cab' - when I go the directory where it claims it can't copy data2.cab there is no data2.cab.
Thing is I am pretty sure there *IS* a data2.cab ... just that the rights or something are such that I cannot see / copy it. is there a simple command I can run on the *entire* drive that will set the ownership of ALL files so that I can see and move them? I just need to copy all these files over to the upgraded nas and then I can reformat this drive.
