The reason that Escapepod does not process the downloaded file (https://cdn.anarplex.net//cdn/cypherpunk-bitstream/episodes/CypherpunkBitstream-0x0d-Non-Compliance.mp3) is: The MP3 is delivered by the webserver with the wrong content type declaration (application/octet-stream instead of audio/mpeg). The podcast feed itself lists the audio file correctly as type="audio/mpeg" (https://taz0.org/bitstream/index.xml).

The app does not communicate that at all. Sorry / thanks for pointing me to that problem. I will see how that can be improved.

If you know the publisher you could consider to give them a hint that their webserver is declaring the wrong content type.

And: In the long term Escpapepod needs to switch to another method of confirming the file type.

Thanks a lot for digging the issue out. I have contacted the podcast publishers.
