Podcast Playlist not Playing Continuously
An Eclectic Mind : Podcast Playlists No Longer Play Continuously:
Problems are almost worth having when the solution feels this good.
Apple in a "feature" update took away the ability to play podcasts sequentially: at the end of each podcast the playlist would stop and return, paused, to the list of podcasts. This is very frustrating for people who like to listen to podcasts continuously rather than stopping after each one.
The solution, as Maria Langer points out in her blog, is to turn off the "Shuffle" feature in the Settings section of your iPod (or by clicking the centre of the click wheel when any song is playing until the shuffle window appears - turn "off"). A reset may also be needed to make the new selection stick.
It's reminiscent of the programming claim that "bugs are just undiscovered features." Sure they are.
