Hy everybody!
I just updated on Mango and I'am looking for an app that can download podcast automatically in background (using my Wifi at home) and then play it when I don't have connection. (I don't have data plan)
I have tried Podcast! and SpladDash but I did not find this function.
Someone know an app (free) that can do this!!
Thanks
Zune within the phone does that. Subscribe to the podcast on your computer, and then you can either set the phone to download and keep all the podcasts or you can manually choose which ones. If you want more, open up Zune on your phone, click podcasts, scroll to your podcast, scroll down, click marketplace, choose podcast, download, be happy, live life.
However, if you don't want to subscribe to the podcast then the above steps won't work.
I did no find how to do it without using PC sync!!
I want to download the podcast only using the Wifi on my phono ... I have see that on some WP7 you have this option but i don't find it!!!!
I would like to know how this can be done. I don't want to waste my time clicking and selecting once I'm subscribed. I want them to be downloaded without my interaction.

Actually, you can subscribe and/or download individual podcasts directly from the phone - meaning you don't need to subscribe on from your computer ... to download a single episode without subscribing simply locate the episode you want and press and hold until the 'download' option pops up.
Keep in mind that you can only stream popdcasts using your phone's data connection, if you are downloading to your phone it will require you to be on WiFi.

I don't believe this to be the case. It may be HD7 specific, but it would download podcasts that were small enough over the data network, not just WiFi. Also, I can second the fact that you can subscribe directly from phone. Oddly enough you want to go to the marketplace->Podcasts to get to it. I am not sure if there is any way to get to it from the Music&Video hub.
Yes, this functionality is built into the phone in the 'Music & Videos' hub. I don't think podcasts are available through the Zune marketplace in my location. However, this is how I did it:
1) Subscribe to the podcasts on Zune on your PC. (Can get the RSS feed for the podcast from iTunes or searching on the web).
2) Sync the podcasts to your phone.
3) Open the podcasts in the 'music and videos' hub on your phone. Select each podcast and click the subscribe button on your phone.
4) Can now unsubscribe from the podcasts on your PC.
If the Zune marketplace contains podcasts in your location, it's obviously easier. Seems to work fine so far. Podcasts download when the phone is plugged in and connected via wifi. I have a DVP.

i'm new to the rss world, but i was wondering if there was a program that worked like itunes, where it would manage the rss on the pc and then just transfer the rss(or media file?) into the wizard. kind of how an ipod works????
rather than the wizard downloading from the wifi or gprs directly.
sorry if i sound retarted...........
hmm this works on the psp
http://pspupdates.qj.net/MyTunesRSS-v2-1-Out-Now/pg/49/aid/58898
try that
if it works post
From wikipedia (sorry about long paragraph)
"A podcatcher is usually an always-on program which starts when the computer is started and runs in the background. It manages a set of feed URIs added by the user and downloads each at a specified interval, such as every two hours. If the feed data has substantively changed from when it was previously checked (or if the feed was just added to the podcatcher's list), the program determines the location of the most recent item and automatically downloads it to the user's computer. Some podcatchers, such as iTunes, also automatically make the newly downloaded episodes available to a user's portable media player."
i want a program that can do something like described here
If you have WM5 you can sync media through Windows Media Player, and there is a piece of software that will download and create playlists for new RSS downloaded media files called iPodder, that can be auto synchronised then through ActiveSync.
http://ipodder.sourceforge.net/download/index.php
For things like news, and text based RSS feeds, you could either use something like AvantGo or ano other RSS news reader you find on Google.
I use iTunes for downloading podcasts then I have a batch file which transfers them over to my Charmer.
The podcasts aren't DRM protected so they play with no problems.
Any way to listen to live radio or tv without a slingbox or equivelant?? I tried The Mobile Stream Center but it isnt live, I think its about 4-5 hours behind... How can I do this without spending moneyor is it possible?
2 ways to get media into the device
1 internet
2 getting a SDIO card which works as a fm/analog tv or dab/dvb tuner
I have internet(with unlimited data plan) just dont know what to try other than the website mentioned before.... Thanks
Go to wwiitv.com
-Find channels you like
-Click on the download button and instead of opening streams, save them
-Put these on your device (they are really small files, put as many as you want)
-Open them
I keep the TVA stream file on my PDA so I can watch this channel live whenever I want, pretty sweet.
I got a list of sponsered channels with that address? See here http://wwiitv.com/
No good for me

No luck with this, even trying .net gives similar results. just sponsored links. Is there an extention to the address that gives direct access?
For radio, go to http://www.radio-locator.com/ on PIE. It's a database of almost every traditional radio station in America. Most of 'em are openable in Media Player. After they're running, you can close PIE to save memory/battery.
correction
its wwitv.com
I cant believe no one has mentioned orb? go to www.orb.com and see for yourself, works great on everything Internet enabled (except when using flash on the wii) for the live tv functionality you will need a tv tuner for your home pc, but besides that, you can always stream all your videos, music, youtube, radio stations and pictures.
Oh, and if your only interested in radio stations go to: www.tuned.mobi
I'll check those out. Thanks
You can also attatch a Slingbox to your receiver at home and watch those channels via the internet.
Tell Santa To Bring You A SlingBox And A SlingCatcher

Be sure to put the SlingBox and the Slingcatcher on your xmas list, you will never regret it. With the Slingcatcher, no need for TV Out on your PDAphone, just let the SlingCatcher send those video files from your PC to your TV........!
www.shoutcast.com
a TON of sites, good search features, good stream options.
www.winamp.com
about the same as shoutcast, but they have winamp remote. i have been unsuccessful installing it on my computer, but apparently you can install it on ur home computer then run it and it turns your computer into a streaming feed that i believe you can control remotely. really sweet idea, just havent gotton it to happen on my POS computer.
1.) Download and install
For Windows iTunes Agent.
For Mac iTuneMyWalkman.
2.) Once installed, the application runs in the system tray and monitors iTunes.
3.) Plug the Infuse into your computer's USB port and mount it.
4.) Create a folder on the mounted Infuse called Music.
5.) Right-click on the iTunes Agent icon in the system tray.
6.) Click Preferences.
7.) Leave all defaults checked and click the New button.
8.) Give the device a name. (Infuse in this case)
9.) Leave Synchronize pattern: set to iTunes.
10.) Click the Choose button and select the Music folder you created on the Infuse.
11.) Click the Create button and select the Music folder you created on the Infuse.
12.) Click Save and then Close.
13.) Launch iTunes and you will see a playlist folder called My Devices, under which you will see the Infuse.
14.) Simply drag the music you wish to synchronize from your iTunes library to your Infuse into this playlist
15.) Finally, right-click on the iTunes Agent icon in the system tray and select Synchronize devices
You could do all that, which seems OK. Here's the easier version (none of this sync business):
1. Sort your music by kind. This will find your music that is protected. Convert your library from the protected format by right clicking on your library and converting to mp3 within itunes. I have about 2000 songs and it took about 30 minutes. This is good because it takes any DRM off of the files and allows you to put them wherever you want. Once done, I deleted the Itunes DRM protected versions so I wouldn't have duplicates in my library.
2. Drag and drop onto your phone. I created a music folder on my sd card.
This was the one task I did not want to go through when I swapped from my IOS to Android, but it was quick and painless.
hehe, or you could just download DoubleTwist on your Mac\PC, and DoubleTwist on your Android phone and it'll do it all for you... playlists, organization, etc. Takes about 1 minute to get it started the first time, and it's all wireless and totally automated. Not sure why anyone would go through the OP's laundry list of instructions, haah.

Hey I have Double Twist, but this software is not seeing my memory card which is bigger than internal memory of My SGS II, is there any option which will allow me save my track there?

Use Google music. Done. Install the Google music manager and then it will bring all of your music from your computer and sync it to the Google servers, and then you will be happy. If you want it locally, just plug in and open in mass storage mode. Done.
Thanks >>

why use bull**** apple software. iTunes may be the biggest piece of crap ever to come out of any major software company. apple should be ashamed of how ****ty it is especially with their reputation for stable quick software.
the phone has an mpt transfer mode that works with kies full (available in foreign markets) and I've heard media player works as well. why not use media player? it comes with windows. or forget the slow mtp sync which I find annoying and just copy the files to the phone.
obviously android offers countless options in music, You can sync to the cloud with Google music, copy/paste over usb, mtp transfer with kies or media player, mount the phone as network drive via FTP, webdav, or other technique, play remote content over dlna or upnp or other options. not to mention the market apps. why in the hell are people working to make our device which is superior in this respect to work like the worst feature of the out dated and limited iPod with maybe the worst mtp application on the market.
why not explore the options that set android apart from the iPhone instead of atemting to use the things that limit the iphone. it doesn't make sense to me.

Uninstalling itunes was one of the happiest days of my life.
Use Itunes and GMusic together
IMO ITunes is the best music manager for rating, tagging and searching. I use it to organize my music then point Google Music manager to upload the library.
BAM! Google Music has all my tracks with full info from ITunes. Now if Music had a better auto playlist generator....
iTunes was my primary reason for moving to Android.

FYI, I know on double twist's "airsync" app their is an option in settings to switch to external memory for saving music. It does warn that it is an experimental feature??

Thanks for the software recommendation, this will help save a lot of time.
After some quick searching, I found no way to make my entire library available offline. I know that I can use the checkboxes to select individual artists/albums to make offline, but this is rather tedious.
I have a rather large library, and I add to it often. Is there any way to make everything available offline? Even something that would automatically check every box would be acceptable.
Thanks!
buuuuuump?
i'm not sure how you're syncing, but i'm using itunes
if i wanted to sync EVERYTHING, i'd make a playlist with all the tracks
and then scroll to playlists on the app and hold it and click make available offline
hope this helps!
If you want to make your entire collection available off-line, put your music on your SD card/MP3 player etc.
Well, I guess the point is to have auto sync, without using additional programs.

Did you ever find a solution?

Or even better, a way for all music to be automatically selected for offline listening.
What I want is a way to copy music files to my SD card without plugging it into my computer. In my perfect world, if I download one new song, I want it to just put it in the My Music folder (on my computer) and have it sync to a Music folder on my devices Ext SD card the next time my device has a data connection. After that, Play Music (or whatever media player I'm using) would just see it as a new file and import it into my Library.
Something like Google Drive would work great if I could just assign folders to sync rather than having a "Google Drive" folder and only syncing what is in there. And "cloud storage" is not completely necessary, just store it in the cloud long enough to sync to my other devices.
Google music automatically imports music from My Music (on my PC), it would be perfect if it automatically made all that music available offline on my phone and tablet.
Is there any app or solution that would help me?
Same situation
I'm currently still waiting for my library to upload, but once it's done I was assuming I can just make entire playlists available offline in one step.
Also any idea if they plan to allow change of destination folder, because I would need the library to save to my sd card instead of the built in memory of my GS3 (which samsung decided to idiodically name 'sdcard' and the external memory instead as 'extsdcard'... brilliant move samsung...)
Any update on this? It seems the new play music app makes it difficult to make all of your music available offline.
The whole point of Google music was to keep the music in the cloud and off the device. There is no way to do what the op wants as far as I know.
Would it be possible to implement synchronisation of the last played position across devices? So when I stop playback on one device and open the same file on another, it asks me to resume where I left off on the first device.
Some reading apps do this (e.g. Moon+ Reader) but I haven't found any media players with that function.

It would be possible if save playback history on a server.
But I am not sure it is really necessary feature.
Anyway I will make a note

The reason why readers can do it is because it stores the "last read" position in your account info, on the reader's server (ie on Moon's server). Media players play files on your device, and not from some central server where you have an account, so media players wouldn't have anywhere to put this info.
I'm not sure if Google Play Services could somehow be used to store this in your Google account (if you decide to opt-in). Personally, I wouldn't want Google knowing even more info about me than they already do.
Hello!
+1 on this one. I'm watching videos on both my phone and my tablet, and it is annoying to manually find the resume point.
One (more) easy way to implement that would be to store the resume point on disk, in a text file for example. If the video folder is synced between the devices by another program (this is my case), the resume point would be automatically synced.
+1!! Any news? you could use the space on Google of course only for those who want it.
I'd love to have that feature as well. A file written to an accessible file path, e.g. one line hash:time per file would even be enough as a poster above suggested. Another tool could then take care of all syncing.
+1 old subject, but I would love to. Perhaps a file sync on GDrive or Dropbox, optionally.
+1 for this even though it's old thread.
