re: Podcast files.

I just noticed that every podcast that is automatically downloaded has been saved in the zune software (500 files!!).  The old ones are not showing up on my zune, just the last 4 that have been downloaded.  Just trying to free up space on my drive.  Should I remove these or just leave them alone??

I suggest deleting the ones you dont want. Or changing each individual podcast sync options by rightclicking the podcast and going to "sync options". from there you can choose how you want each one saved to your drive, and if they should be deleted after being watched, etc... I hope that helps buddy!

Thanks for the help!!  I tried to do what you suggested but sync options is not a selection when you right click on th podcast.  Also, if you do this what happens to all the podcast that you do not view?  I do have the most recent software.

It's not 'sync options' it's 'series settings.'  Right click each podcast icon in the software and set these.  Podcasts that you do not view or listen to will stay or be deleted automatically based on how many you set the software to keep, in the series settings.  Note that you can always choose to keep a favorite episode by right clicking it and choosing 'add to collection' or if it's already been deleted, by clicking 'download.'  Any episode you choose to keep this way will stay until you manually delete it.
