[Bug 78524] Re: Podcast download mechanism isn't robust enough and often fails

> What version of Ubuntu do you use?

The latest (Edgy). I am also testing Feisty and AFAICR it's not better.

> Do you have an example of podcast where you got the problem already?

I have a variety of podcasts and they all have this problem. Again, the
problem isn't wit the podcast server, but my ISP/internet connexion. In
the middle of the night, the podcasts download just fine, but in the
evening, that is the "rush hours" ;-), it gets more challenging ! ;-)

Here are some feeds anyway (France Inter, Europe1, The BBC, LUG radio):

> Could you try to get a log of what is happening when it hangs with "rhythmbox -d"?

Sure. It will have to wait this evening though, as it's only 9h30 right
now and it works fine, not much traffic on the French network at this
time of day ;-)
