bashpodder

I may be missing something but I use bashpodder all the time and I frequently rebuild machines testing different stuff.
My question: Is there a way to just have bashpodder download just maybe on or two shows of whatever you have in the bp.conf file instead of the last ten?
I changed the number in parse_enclosure thinking maybe that was it since it was 10 but no luck.
thanks in advance,

The number of podcasts downloaded is based on what is in the RSS feed for that podcast. If they have 10 enclosures, 10 will be downloaded.
I suppose you could hack bashpodder and add logic to limit the number of downloads per site.
A quick and dirty way would be to hack bashpodder so it makes it's list of podcasts to download but doesn't download them. I believe it writes to a file called "temp." Then backup your podcast.log and rename "temp" to "podcast.log." Edit podcast.log and remove the URLs for the podcasts you actually want to download. Run an unaltered bashpodder, and it'll download the podcasts not in podast.log, which should be the ones you want.

Yup, what Gomer_X said...
