So if it works for me this is not enough? I still can't reproduce this
here in merged view, but it does indeed happen in the default view.
The same behavior is known for the Collection Browser, so this is not
podcast related only but deeper in the system. Workaround: Switch to
merged view.

Could you please file one report per item? You are talking about
totally different things in that report, which makes it really
difficult to track.

I just tried several times today, can't reproduce that at all, Tried
in both default and merged view.

Single click expands it, double-click has always added it to the
playlist. This is the default behavior and it would be really annoying
to change IMHO, as it has been the default behavior since the
beginning of the 2.x series. I don't know what makes you think that a
double-click expands the view.


Regards, Myriam.

PS. Could we keep discussions about bugs in the bugtracker? Commenting
on both the bug and in the mailing lists makes it a lot of work me
seems...
PPS. It would be really helpful if people would test the unconfirmed
bugs. Please use the saved searches in bugs.kde.org, there are plenty
of those, depending on what you want to search for. All crashes have
the crash handler in the title, so it is easy to search for, too.
