Hi, apparently buzzsprout doesnt want to allow scripts to download its files. The way greg
handles downloads by default is by using the urllib
library, which identifies its requests with the User-Agent'
"Python-urllib/3.5" (in python 3.5; see this).
Fortunately, you don't need to use the default download handler. Add this to your greg.conf
:
[test]
downloadhandler = wget {link} -O {directory}/{filename}.mp3
This will use wget
to download your podcasts, which buzzsprout is apparently OK with. You'll need to install wget
for this to work, of course. If you prefer curl
or some other downloader you can use them too.
Closing this for now, but feel free to reopen it if this didn't solve your issue.

Buzzsprout does not provide permalink to physical file, instead it provides media player embeded into the rss. Unfortunately greg is not able to deal with such media. I got "...something went wrong. Are you connected to the internet?". I am far from python dev so couldn't investigate it on my own, but maybe someone knows how to deal with that kind of issue.
Example podcast: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1263722.rss $ greg add test -f https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1263722.rss $ greg check -f test $ greg download 0 ...something went wrong. Are you connected to the internet?
