Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Hi,
I use ABS to rehost rather large podcasts for myself, and quite a few of them use PSC tags for extra chapter information and chapter images. When I rehost the RSS through ABS though these PSC tags get lost. It would be good not to strip them when assembling the ABS RSS feeds. The textual part should be straightforward, but for the images there's two options: either just keep the links and point to the original images, or download the images like the covers and also host them via ABS.

Why would this be helpful?

Some podcasts use the chapter images to explain concepts or settings in more detail. It's a really nice to have feature.

Example of the PSC tag from a well-known German podcast ( https://podcastd45a61.podigee.io/feed/mp3 ):
