Describe the issue

So patreons RSS feeds for podcasts dont work correctly currently.
Every day it looses information about downloaded episodes.
Episodes are still downloaded in local files but not in detected as downloaded.

Possibly because RSS data contains items with dynamic urls that change between syncs?
This is the only relevant change in the RSS feed as i can see when comparing old xml-data with new.

We should be using the GUID but instead we are using the URL to match with existing episodes. This was brought up before here https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/issues/1896#issuecomment-1624650436 but I haven't looked into it yet

Fixed in v2.5.0

Note that this is only fixed for episodes downloaded going forward. Existing episodes with this issue would need to be redownloaded to store the GUID.
