in another podcast client.
Once subscribed to a feed, the Trek will automatically start downloading the most recent
episodes in the background. The Trek will tag these episodes as “new” as they have never been
played before. From the configuration menu, you can use the “Downloaded podcast episodes to
keep” item to choose how many podcast episodes should be kept on your Trek (between 1 and
10, the default value being 3 episodes) or whether you want to keep the episodes manually only.
Note: Please note that if you have some new episodes and if you set your downloaded podcast
episodes to manual only, they will be deleted from your Trek as they have not yet been saved,
and no new episodes will be automatically downloaded.
When a podcast episode is downloaded, it is saved in the Trek’s internal memory. If the episode
was downloaded automatically, it will also be erased automatically when enough new episodes
become available, depending on the number of downloaded podcast episodes to keep you have
set in the configuration menu. You can choose to make an automatically downloaded episode
persistent using the “Prevent auto-delete of episode” option on key 3. If an episode was
downloaded manually, it will have to be erased manually using the key 3 “Delete” function.
When select many podcasts for download, they will be placed in a download queue in the

Only. To unsubscribe from a podcast feed, use the option “Unsubscribe from podcast feed” on
