Great Application !

but, nevertheless, there is a flaw in it's Trash management :

I'm using App Sweep and have used the 'Advanced' option to 'Trash my coworker whenever he starts singing'. Hazel did this almost instantly.

Unfortunately, my 'Empty Trash' purging setting was set to empty immediately for everything over 85 kilograms and now my coworker is gone forever and we have no way in retrieving him. His wife and children will get suspicious and all evidence will point at my direction.

Can you help me out ? is there a 'goofed up, please undo' button ?

thanks for the episode, great stuff !

Larmuseau... keep it in, will ya?! This is a serious app. And I sing whenever I bl**dy feel like it.

"Raindrops keep falling on my head, tub dubbididub, but that doesn't mean...."

Is it just me, or is anyone else having trouble with the audio file (via iTunes)? I've downloaded it twice now, and it won't play past the first few minutes, it just goes straight back to the beginning...

Hmm... I haven't had anyone else complaining about this. And I have no problems either. This isn't helping you... I can see that ;). Anyway, try doing a 'Command + R' on the episode. Delete the original audio file the finder shows you, and remove that track in iTunes. Then go to the podcast page in iTunes and manually select that track to download again.

No idea why this is happening though. Keep me posted. Thx for telling!

Right, trashed and manually re-downloaded in iTunes, and it's the same again. It gets to 7:47, then it pauses for a few seconds, goes to 7:48, then it resets back to the beginning. This time I'm doing it in iTunes rather than on the iPod, but it's just the same.

Several other enhanced AAC podcasts that I listen to are still working just fine.

Oh well. I own Hazel already, and the third of the podcast I heard had prodded me to going through its configuration again to look for all the clever stuff it does that I'm not already using :)

If it would help for you to see the file I received through iTunes, I've put it here temporarily:

Like I say, I can't get it to play past 7:47 -- if you can, then maybe there's something wrong with my iTunes that's also causing problems with my iPod...

Thanks for the help, Frank! Love the show (and I can normally hear it all!)

Well, I'm clueless.

Strangely, the file you uploaded downloads as a .m4a.mp3 extention. But that might be the server you host it on.

As soon as I find some time I'll see if I can repost that episode or something.
