podcast .rss feed, 403 forbidden error - cannot subscribe

Post by denisova »

Question: How can avoid a "403 Forbidden" error message when I subscribe to ths podcast? I get a error message when I try to subscribe to the podcast in MM (see the "403 Forbidden" error message below).

But the .rss feed looks fine when viewed in Firefox. And I was able to subscribe and listen to the podcast both in iTunes and on an android phone.

How can I fix this? And why does MM change all the forward-slash's to back-slash's in the podcast URL? I tried both the forward- and the back-slash version with no success.

Thx in advance,

Here is the error message, which pop-ups up each time MM tries to update the podcast subscription:

Code: Select all

Error
There was a problem downloading the following files:

Just started using mediamonkey, and I have a similar problem, I cannot synchronize any podcast (these work fine in iTunes or anywhere). The error code shown is 400 Bad Request
