Unable to play Autoblog podcast in WP8.1 Podcast App

Alright, I tested multiple episodes of that podcast, both streaming and downloaded, and got no errors on any of them. So, the podcast itself is fine as far as how the RSS feeds are set up and how the app in general is seeing them.

Do you also get an error when trying to stream an episode? If it's only happening with downloaded episodes, try these steps:

• Tap and hold on any downloaded episodes and delete them.
• Unsubscribe from the podcast, and completely close the Podcast app.
• Go to Settings -> Applications -> Internet Explorer -> Delete History.
• Hold Power and Volume Down for 15 seconds until the phone vibrates and restarts.
• Resubscribe to the podcast and download an episode.

Let us know the results!

Cannot download podcast (error 0x80090302)

Hi, I'm having an issue downloading episodes from a specific podcast (The Guardian Football Weekly) - whenever I try I get the error message 'An unknown error occurred (0x80090302)'. All my other podcasts
are downloading fine, and new episodes of this podcast are appearing in the store as usual. I can re-download old episodes that I have previously listened to, but the three episodes released since this started all give the same error message. I can't find
any record online of this error message relating to itunes, but is has come up for other people with other symptoms, which is why I think it's a Windows issue. Seems odd that it's related to one specific podcast and only new episodes that I try and download.
Have logged into a different user account and different itunes account on the same PC and have the same problem. Itunes version 12.7.0.166, Windows 10, all updated. Any help much appreciated.

Moved from: Windows / Windows 10 / Windows settings / PC

 

Can Podcasts be set to show downloaded episodes by default?

Is there any way to make Podcasts show only downloaded episodes by default? I'm finding its behaviour really inconvenient.

I'm working my way through a podcast series with over 200 short episodes, listening in the car on my daily commute. I keep the next 10 episodes downloaded so I don't have to stream them while travelling.

When an episode finishes, the only way I can find to choose the next one is to swipe to the Favourites screen and choose that series, which then defaults to "showing all" episodes, starting at episode 1. Rather than scroll madly down a hundred or more episodes,
I then have to tap the (tiny) word "showing" and then tap "downloaded" instead to make it show only the ones I have available. It's all far too fiddly to do safely while driving, even with the phone in a holder on the dash.

There must be an easier way. Surely. What am I missing?
