Episodes are downloaded and I've listened to them. They are now flagged as "done". Even though I have set Auto delete to done, the episodes do not get deleted from the playlist, but remain there, flagged as done and with a download symbol next to them. Any ideas? Thanks. Chris
When episodes are completed (Flagged as done "Grey") they are removed from the System Playlists All - sorted by feed/date/All - sorted by date & Dynamic/User Playlists from Audio or Video Tabs , episode are deleted during scheduled feed updates. deleted episodes will be flagged grey (Done) and will have a download ↓ icon on the Episode screen from the Feeds Tab. Just completed episodes that hasn't been deleted yet will still have a play► icon, will be deleted on the next scheduled update.
Thanks Wayne. So as I understand it, completed episodes remain in the list of episode for ever, but are simply flagged as done and have the download ↓ icon next to them? I will need to hide episodes that are done in order to remove them?
You're welcome. Feed metadata (Episode titles & Show notes) are not deleted because there are embedded in the RSS URL’s provided by the publisher of each podcast DC uses to access media files. You have the option to hide episodes flagged done (Grey) by opening any podcast/feed on the "Feeds" screen/tab> press the V icons (Top Right of the Episode Screen) or the "Hide episodes that are done" settings (In the DC Navigation Menu>Settings> User Interface) and enable or disable (Check ✓ Icon)
Thanks for your help Wayne.
Hello,
I'm using version 1.2.4147 on an HTC One M7 with Android 5.0.2, and the auto delete is not auto deleting. Finished podcasts are greyed out but the episode is not deleted.

Check if the auto delete policy is set to "Done Episodes" (DC navigation Menu>Settings>Global Feed Options)
