Podcast not showing up in search #280

Hi, I hope this is the right place to report this bug.

When I search for the podcast "Ashes Ashes", the podcast does not show up in the search. But when I enter the feed "https://pinecast.com/feed/ashes-ashes" into the search then it shows up as "Ashes Ashes".

So the problem is that the podcast exists but is not searchable with the name, "ashes ashes", "Ashes-Ashes", "Ashes" etc.

This should probably also affect other podcasts. Maybe a specific problem with parsing of "pinecast"? Thanks for working on a great FOSS project :)

I now found that when entering the feed into http://feeds.gpodder.net/. It shows "common_title": null. Which is not null for some random podcast I tried. I think the problem is here.

I was going to send this to support, however, I thought I would try here first since this is the community resource.

I like gPodder a lot. I try to get people to use it all the time. However, a lot of the podcasts I listen to I cannot find on gPodder. I spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to get these podcasts to show up so I can subscribe to them and run into the same problem listed above.

Here is a link to one I am talking about.

https://dailystoic.com/Podcast/ 

When I do a search on the gPodder.net website nothing comes up. I try to put different URL's from the website into the search box to find it, however, nothing works. I have no idea what gPodder is looking for. Very frustrating.

Her is another site:

https://leadx.org/podcasts/leadership-podcast/ 

and a third:

https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/behindthescenentsb/behindthescene-ntsb

It doesn't matter what search terms you use they will not show up. Any ideas on how to make this function better for everyone? There are about another 15 podcasts that I have tried to list in gPodder that will not come up for the same reason.

NOTE: I have 46 that do come up, yes I listen to what I would consider a lot of podcasts, and I have to do a lot of work to get them to list on my feed. I think gPodder would have a much larger following if this could be addressed.

I've had a look at the RSS feed of https://dailystoic.com/Podcast/ (which is https://dailystoic.com/feed/). It seems that gpodder.net does not recognize any media files in the feed (http://feeds.gpodder.net/parse?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdailystoic.com%2Ffeed%2F) and therefor does not list any episodes (https://gpodder.net/podcast/daily-stoic)

The problem is the same for https://leadx.org/podcasts/leadership-podcast/ (RSS https://leadx.org/podcasts/leadership-podcast/feed/): http://feeds.gpodder.net/parse?url=https%3A%2F%2Fleadx.org%2Fpodcasts%2Fleadership-podcast%2Ffeed%2F

I did not have the time yet to dig deeper to find out why no media files are found. Maybe @fundatillus or @SiqingYu want to have a closer look?

@stefankoegl Sure.

No thank you. I have sent emails to the owners of those sites. Hopefully, they will work on it from their end. Thank you!
