Hey there, I am sure I am missing something obvious, but how can I add podcast feeds?

I see in the settings where they can be saved, how frequently they get checked and so on. But I don't see where in the web client or the android app, how to add a feed.

Many thanks, Eid

You can add "administrate podcasts" rights to any account.

I already added the podcasts to subsonic server and installed subsonic on phone and can stream music and playlist. How do I stream my podcasts subscriptions through subsonci on android?

UPDATE: Figured it out guys.

I've been trying to figure this out as well. If you don't mind sharing, what was the solution?

I defined the Podcast folder as a shortcut. This moves the folder to the top of the selection list in the Shortcuts section. Otherwise, your Podcasts should appear in the music library in the P section just like any other folder.

From the home screen tap the G cleff icon to see the music library.

Define the podcast save folder in C:\music\Podcasts, or as a subfolder in your primary music library.

If the podcast is stored in a seperate folder, not under music, add the folder definition under Music folders in settings. If you do it this way, the podcasts will be listed under the folder names of each podcast. e.g. I added "Podcasts" in the name block under music folders, defined F:\Podcasts in the folder block. In that folder I have several podcast episodes from The Home Server Show, all stored in that folder (F:\Podcasts\The Home Srever Show) Because "The" is ignored, these podcast episodes appear in the Android app listing under "H" - "The Home Server Show"

I prefer the first method as it consolidates all your podcasts in the same place and can be located at the top of the list by defining the folder as a shortcut.

Hope this helps.
