    I want to use bit-torrent to download video podcast (Command-N), so my question is how do i integrate download podcast into the podcast library of iTunes?

    The reason i want to use torrents is that iTunes doesnt allow me to stop and start the downloads and i regularly get time outs.

    Thanks guys!

    That would pretty much require you to hack the iTunes preferences that tells iTunes if a podcast audio/video file has been downloaded, and where it's located. Basically, not easy, and not really possible, unless you like reverse engineering and programming :)

    I sort of guessed that! I tried to play around a bit, exported my library and played with the XML and I got the files added, but in the general library, not the Podcast lists, so basically I found a very LONG way of adding something to the general library... hehe

    Thanks!
