Episodes don't play til the end

Episodes are cutting off maybe 1-2 minutes before the actual end of content? Full time appears to have elapsed, but content is cut off mid-sentence. Has definitely happened on the Word Association and the Neighborhood Listen today, not sure which others in the past.

Out of curiosity, are you using Skip Silence and/or a faster playback speed?

Playing at regular speed, not using skip silence. The only thing I can think, and it’s a bit of a stretch, is that I have it set to mark as played if there’s less than 2 minutes remaining. But like I said, the full time is elapsed, but it seems to be cutting the content 2 minutes short? And I don’t even know how much time I’m actually losing. It’s probably not that.

That is an interesting coincidence. I wonder what would happen if you disabled that feature just as a test. FWIW: I have it set for 30 seconds and haven’t noticed any issues like that.

That said, I’m going to guess that the podcasts in question insert ads after the podcast goes in the can, potentially causing issues with the listed episode length.

Are you playing downloaded episodes or using the live playback option?

In the second case your issue may be related to Podcasts skip forward and/or backward when streaming

Have disabled it now, we’ll see how it goes!

Ahh, very interesting… I do experience that as well, I’ll have to pay more attention and make sure I listen to the end when it does
