Describe the feature/enhancement

Please Revert #952 back to #888.

While #952 provides a visible order when importing a podcast, it renders it unplayable on iphone.
If you sort oldest to newest or newest to oldest, it plays backwards under both options.

Thanks

Can you elaborate? Why is it unplayable? Does the podcast app show what the pubDate is?

Sure. The app doesn't show the date, but it tries to play backwards, regardless of sorting order.
If you choose chapter 10, it plays 9 next.
If you choose chapter 1, it just stops when done.

The sort order is what #952 visually corrected to put chapter 1 at the top automatically, but they play order is always oldest to newest, regardless of the sort order. And #952 made the higher chapters "older".

So the correct use on iPhones, after #888 is restored is to:

  • Scroll to the bottom of the list and hit chapter 1.
    Or
  • Visually Resort (settings for feed) Chapter 1 to the top then hit play.
