# The Podcasts page
|
||||
|
||||
The Podcasts page allows you add subscriptions to podcasts which are often used to syndicated audio files using a URL called a RSS feed. This allows your LibreTime instance to automatically download new shows from the web.
|
||||
|
||||
In order to add a podcast you need to get the RSS feed. All podcasts available on iTunes have a RSS feed but it is sometimes hidden. See this issue on our github page [#510](https://github.com/LibreTime/libretime/issues/510) for more information. RSS feeds that do not end in *.xml* may be accepted by LibreTime but might fail to download episodes; in that case, download the episode using a podcast client such as [gpodder](https://gpodder.github.io/) and then manually upload and schedule the episode. Podcast feeds coming from Anchor.fm have been known to have this issue.
|
||||
|
||||
The podcast interfaces provides you with the ability generate [Smartblocks](../smartblocks) that can be used in conjunction with [Autoloading Playlists](../calendar/#autoloading-playlist) to schedule the newest episode of a podcast without human intervention.

The podcasts editor
|
||||
The podcasts dashboard is similar to the tracks view, allowing you to add, edit, and remove
|
||||
podcasts by the toolbar, in addition to sorting by columns. Podcast feeds themselves cannot be searched (ie. to
|
||||
search for _Background Briefing_, as per the screenshot).
|
||||
|
||||
To add a podcast, click on the **+ Add** button on the toolbar and provide the podcast's RSS feed, which usually ends in *.xml*.
|
||||
Once the podcast's feed is recognized, the editor pane opens for the podcast.

|

|

In the podcasts editor, you can rename the podcast, update settings for the podcast, and manage episodes.
|
||||
A search box is available to search for episodes within the feed.
|
||||
|
||||
- To import an episode directly into LibreTime, double-click on an episode or select it and click **+ Import**. The podcast will appear under tracks with the Podcast Name as the Album.
|
||||
- To delete an episode from LibreTime, select the episode and click on the red trash can on the toolbar.
|
||||
- If you would like LibreTime to automatically download the latest episodes of a podcast, make sure *Download latest episodes* is checked. This can be used in conjunction with Smartblocks and Playlists to automate downloading and scheduling shows that are received via. podcast feed.
