Describe the issue

Possible regression of #939.

Podcasts with opened RSS feeds do not update those RSS feeds with new episodes as they come out, even after audiobookshelf indexes the new episode and makes it available via the web UI. Restarting audiobookserver does not seem to help. The only way I'm able to get new episodes into audiobookshelf's opened RSS feeds is to close and re-open the feeds.

I believe the expected behavior should be that when a new episode of a subscribed podcast comes out, when audiobookshelf discovers that new episode, downloads it, and makes it available through the web UI, it should also add that episode to the RSS feed for that podcast if one is opened.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Subscribe to a podcast that actively posts new episodes.
  2. Open audiobookshelf's feed for that podcast.
  3. Wait until a new episode of the podcast gets published and shows up in audiobookshelf's web UI.
  4. Check the opened RSS feed for that podcast, observe that the new episode that is showing up in the web UI is not showing up in the RSS feed.
  5. Optionally close the audiobookshelf RSS feed for that podcast and then re-open it at the same or a different url, and now observe that the new episode is listed in the feed.

Audiobookshelf version

v2.2.12

How are you running audiobookshelf?

I've noticed this as well, also on v2.2.12. The RSS feed also fails to update when you use the search function to download already published episodes, so waiting for a new episode to be published isn't necessary to reproduce the bug.

On the server (not from the mobile app), create a new library and change the Media Type to Podcasts.

Thanks, I completely missed that. Found it now, it's super nifty.

Hey, I noticed a problem that is perhaps related on my server after the update to v2.2.12. Also running in docker. I do keep my podcasts in a separate library which is marked as a podcast library. If I do a manual search for new episodes in the edit form for the podcasts it will show me that there are new episodes available, then it will display a banner for that podcast saying X Episode(s) queued for download, but it never actually downloads them.
