One of the things heavy users are asking for is a better way to manage their subscribed feeds. Until we get those features into our code, here is the first part of a series about some killer alternatives which should make your mobile podcasting experiences even better.
Setup all your favourite podcasts online. Its a little bit of work to get this setup and typing your new RSS or OPML into the Nokia Podcasting client, but once you do it…it rocks.
a. Sign in and Log in.
b. Add the URLs of your favourite RSS feeds. (or import your favourite OPML) The latest episodes of these feeds will now be ready to listen on the PC in one player. Cool! But we’re not done yet.
c. Scroll down and find links to three different feeds:
i. A RSS feed with the newest episode per subscription
ii. A RSS feed with the episodes that you seperately added to ‘PodNova podcast episodes for [your username]‘
iii. An OPML feed with all episodes from all your subscriptions
d. Open your Nokia Podcasting app on your device. Open PODCASTING. Choose “OPTIONS”. Choose “NEW PODCAST”.
Type in that monster URL from the first RSS link that you see on your Podnova page. (This is the not so fun part. but its worth it.)
e. Now, you will get an updated Feed called “Podcasts for (Your Name)”. This will put all the latest episodes of your favourtie podcasts into one feed.
One they are there, open the feed and use “OPTIONS” , then “MARK” or “MARK ALL” to manually choose which episodes to download.
Try it out and let us know what you think.
(PodNova is not afflicated with Nokia. The solutions just happens to work pretty great with Nokia Podcasting. Since Valentines Day is coming up, we want to share the love.)
