how change default podcast download settings

I would like to change the default so that when new episodes of a podcast are available, they will not be downloaded. (The default now is to download them.)


I know how to do this for an individual podcast but there must be a way to change the default so that it applies to all podcasts.


Thank you for any guidance.

In case you haven't solved this:


  1. When you have the Podcast Settings open, select 'Podcast Defaults' in the dropdown box for 'Settings for:' Podcast Defaults should be at the very top above the list of all your podcasts.
  2. Select 'Do nothing' in the dropdown box for 'When new episodes are available:'
  3. Select 'OK'


That should change your default for all podcasts
