    RE: https://mastodon.social/@saxx/117105898213804247 Mono, EQ, normalization, and de-esser are basically free (well under 1% additional CPU usage — so little that it&amp;#39;s hard to measure).

    Version 2025.11 is now in the App Store! Major changes: - Brand new downloader for more reliable downloads - Better streaming, especially in slow or spotty network conditions (it won&#39;t kick you out and make you start over on failures anymore) - Improved Apple Watch background sync and downloads - Detects if your ad-blocking router, VPN, or DNS is blocking a download and tells you how to fix it It’s one of those updates with zero new features… but huge upgrades to everyday functionality.

    You Might Also Like: Overcast&#39;s new Promos &amp; Reruns filter! In the latest update, you can now skip reruns of old episodes and promos for other shows (&quot;you might like&quot;, “introducing”, etc.) that some podcasts insert into their feeds. It’s a global setting called Promos &amp; Reruns, and it can be customized per-podcast. Aaannddd… the number-one customer request: EPISODE IMAGES! A surprisingly big undertaking, but it&#39;s finally here. Check it out in the App Store today.

    The latest TestFlight beta tackles Overcast&amp;#39;s most-hated bugs: - Sync sometimes resets your changes shortly after you make them - Incorrect ordering of new episodes in playlists with priority settings - Unexpectedly large storage usage (usually corresponding to download failures) - Episode progress resets to 0:00 on some failures or output-device changes …all thanks to a new friend you may know: https://www.reddit.com/r/overcast/comments/1uhzlcu/testflight_build_1161_tackling_the_mo...
