I have had a problem when trying a listen podcasts of Finnish Public Radio. The podcast file is of RSS 2.0 type and enclosures MP3. EXample here: http://areena.yle.fi/api/search.rss?...o&ladattavat=1
It always gave me error "Unable to parse ASF audio stream". From some other thread I got hint that it might be linked with fact that "application/octet-stream" is marked as media type belonging to WMA. Downloading an enclosure with wget revealed that the web server is saying the audio file enclosures are indeed of "application/octet-stream" type. So, I changed LMS' types.conf to have "application/octet-stream" belonging to MP3 file, and magic, podcasts started working.
However, I thought this is a quick and dirty fix, and I might run into other problems when some other service is serving WMA as "application/octet-stream".
I was left wondering why didn't LMS recognise the file by the suffix (they are .mp3). At least when no matching media type is found. I tested the latter by removing "application/octet-stream" totally from types.conf, and I then got "No items found in playlist error".
