I’ve been listening to lots of podcasts recently and particularly enjoying the Solar Clipper series. My main problem has been that the iPod Touch defaults to playing the newest podcast first, so that I always have to skip backwards to get to the next episode. I found a neat little solution for this that I thought I should share. It only really works for completed podcasts, or podcast novels though.
I downloaded all of the podcasts to iTunes, then selected the podcast and selected “Get Info” from the right-click menu. I then changed the content type form Podcast to Audiobook. This moves the completed podcast into the audiobook section and gives you correct ordering – sweet!
You can also create a playlist for the specific podcast or novel and simply add them in the correct order.
