    Does anyone know of any way that I can obtain podcasts on my FVP 5000t? I have recently got this box and would like to be able to get some podcasts on it. I know the BBC Sounds App is working on the box, but I would like to be able to get a few other podcasts too.

    The only apps are the ones installed or available in the Players menu.
    It is not possible to install anything else.

    Only other source will be YouTube.

    One option is to play podcasts on your phone or tablet and cast them to the TV.

    Thanks. I did download the podcasts and can save them in the downloads folder then play them, but it is not the best way to play them.

    I only have an old iPad and the reason I am trying this on Humax is because recently the podcasts have not been working. Once more, the lack of support for older iOS etc is a problem.

    As an aside on this issue......

    You mention casting from an iPad to the TV. Is this a builtin feature of the Humax or are you suggesting using Chromecast? I do use Chromecast, but wanted to clarify if it is possible to cast through Humax?
