My podcast subscription.xml file is getting corrupted when trying to subscribe to the Said Junior podcast.  The feed is at http://www.dalejr.com/rss.aspx?feed=said.  I can see two items that might have some bad data, one with <pubDate>Sat, 30 Apr 2016 19:05:24 GMT</pubDate> and the other with <pubDate>Fri, 11 Sep 2015 22:40:23 GMT</pubDate>.  Musicbee randomly picks one of the dates to list both episodes as shown in these screen captures.

yes i get the same. Its because both reference the same file. However I wont make any changes to address the issue because any such change is non-trivial

Well, it works okay in BeyondPod on my phone.  Any suggestions on how I can get the podcast to exist without corrupting the subscription.xml file?  I've been experimenting with the Do Not Download and Download Most Recent One options in Customise Subscription Rules.

It seems to corrupt only if I let it download episodes before the Sat, 30 Apr 2016 19:05:24 GMT entry.  Is there a way to manually modify the xml to flag these two entries as not new so they won't try to be downloaded?

i am not able to reproduce any corruption in the subscription file. I suggest you update to the latest patch version from the first forum topic in case its something that is already fixed

Updated to the latest build.  Curious...what is your naming template for Library > Podcasts?

My podcast subscription file is corrupting again.  It appears to be related to the grayed-out entry for http://www.dalejr.com/rss.aspx?feed=tdjd.
