Hi,
Hope someone can answer this as I don't have much luck posting such questions!
I have a program called Radio Downloader and usually (not at the mo) download around 20 radio shows per week to listen away from PC.
I now have an IPOD and want to know if there's a way to have the programmes download directly to my itunes instead of WMP?
Probably not but i'm tired of having to make up folders to transfer:o

What format does it save them in when you download them?0

So are you using Add Folder to Library to get them into iTunes at present...?0

What sort of iPod do you have (touch, classic etc) ?
Are the programmes you use RadioDownloader for not available as podcasts ?0 -
Answer is yes, I did a howto sometime ago on how to do it, for you go 2mins in on the video for the bit relevant to you, follow everything from that point to the end.

I can't think of a neat solution.
I guess you know you can set imported items as podcasts so your podcasts are seperate from your music.
There are a couple of useful attributes you can set in iTunes.
Once you have imported your file and it shows up as "music" do "get info" and "options" and tick "remember playback position" and "ok".
Then, "get info", "options", and change "media kind:" to "podcast"
Hope that helps.0 -
Are they all BBC shows? And....
do you listen in the house, but away from the PC - or - do you want to listen when out and about?0 -
