Looking for a solution where I can use RSS feeds to download podcast episodes when they drop, to then be picked up by Navidrome.
I use podget, which is a 248 kB bash script. I really like it, and think it will meet your requirements:
- It’s designed to be called from
cron - It lets you sort your podcasts into categories
- It automatically organises the downloads into different directories based on these categories
From its description:
Podget is a simple podcast aggregator optimized for running as a scheduled background job (i.e. cron). It features support for downloading podcasts from RSS & ATOM XML feeds, for sorting the files into folders & categories, for importing URLs from iTunes PCAST files & OPML lists automatic M3U & ASX playlist creation, and automatic cleanup of old files.
It also features automatic UTF-16 conversion for podcasts hosted on MS Windows servers.
Run podget once to install the users configuration files to $HOME/.podget, and then customize them there.

Audiobookshelf is what your wanting then. It does exactly that, and even has a mobile client.

Anything that you’re aware of that will also strip out the 28 minutes of commercials in a 36 minute podcast?

There’s this guy that I’ve had my eye on but personally tried and failed to get set up on my machine: github.com/jdrbc/podly_pure_podcasts

If the podcast is on YouTube you can use Pinchflat to remove ads (assuming it’s been mapped on SponsorBlock). I’ve had hit and miss results but some being ad-free is better than none.

I love having Audiobookshelf. My spouse and I have our own accounts so that we don’t trample each other’s saved progress.
