OPML #73

Open bherrmann7 opened 12 years ago

bherrmann7 commented 12 years ago

No OPML support. Makes it hard to switch from phone to phone.

Would be nice to have "CarCast" ML too which kept track of history.... and current locations and podcasts. (aka everything but mp3s) Almost a cloud sync

It seems that there is this option in the app but it failed to import anything on the new phone.

bherrmann7 commented 11 years ago

Humm. Can you email the opml file it generated and I will take a look.

thanks bob@jadn.com

Baruch. The steps for moving subscriptions from one phone to the other are,

  1. email the export file from your old phone
  2. open the email on your new phone.
  3. Select "Preview" of the attached opml file, and choose carcast
  4. A carcast screen will ask if you want to replace or add the subscriptions to your current list
  5. You now should have all the subscriptions on your new phone

Did you follow this path? I tried your file and it imported correctly on my phone. Well, the Yidish characters dont look right... but thats another issue.

Hey Baruch, someone else just noticed a bug in the importing code. This would make importing fail sometimes, but not always. I expect to push an update tonight. Can you give that a try and see if it works for you

Thanks

Emailed baruch for an update. I know the UTF-8 is messed up on the titles, but otherwise they seem to import fine.
