iOS 5.1 - Podcast chapter names missing

After upgrading both my iPhone 4s and iPod Touch 4th gen to iOS 5.1, the music player no longer displays the chapter names in podcasts. Instead, it just displays Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, etc.


I have rebooted both devices and also downloaded new podcasts and same results.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

In iOS 6 GM this problem is fixed. Individual chapternames comes back. But combining chapternames with same name https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3466004 are not fixed.


We are back to 5.0.1 functionality but not to 4.2.1 where all works well with audiobooks

Has anyone ever fixed this?


I have the same problem today with my iphone 3GS IOS 6.16 (last IOS available for 3GS).


Apparently IOS7 made things much worse still in the audiobook department (all chapters are merged to a single audiobook by force), so am kind of happy it wasn't available for the 3GS... So is anyone still strugling with this in IOS 6?


@ dieterfi: This was not fixed in IOS 6 (or not for long). As I said, I have this problem in IOS 6.1.6... Chapters, instead of their titles, are displayed as "Part 1 of 8", "Part 2 of 8" etc.
