Cannot download "Podcasts" #88

cyuab commented 1 year ago

Hi, In audible, some audio books are belonged to type Podcasts but not type Audiobooks. I can add them to the library and see the in the library on the web browser but not on the app version (I am using Android). These books (with type Podcasts) cannot be shown in Download pop-up window in Book Lib Connect. So, how can I download them in this case?

Podcasts are not yet supported, I'm afraid. The mechanism for them appears to be slightly different and I haven't figured that out. Thing is I don't have any, spending all my listening time on books.

@audiamus It sounds as if you have a rough idea how to implement downloading podcasts. Can you publish the insights that you have already made concerning downloading podcasts?

Well, there isn't much really. When downloading the meta data of your library you get the relevant information in the product.content_delivery_type field, I presume. I parse that field into EDeliveryType and I think podcasts are Periodical. That's as far as I got. Look it up in the source code for context.
