Schmitz Jamawkinaw Enterprises has released [1]Downcast 1.1.6 with added support for a variety of playback speeds from 0.50x to 3.00x (but, strangely, not 1.75x as that speed isn't [2]supported by Apple's framework). The podcatcher app fixes a problem with displaying podcast and playlist settings more than once when running OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion or 10.9 Mavericks, resolves an issue that prevented continuous play from working, restores the Command-L shortcut for locking episodes, fixes a bug with using keyboard shortcuts on all lists, and fixes an issue with the Pause/Resume/Retry button on rows in the Downloads view. ($9.99 new from the [3]Mac App Store, free update, 20.6 MB, [4]release notes, 10.8+) References 1. http://www.downcastapp.com/ 2. http://support.downcastapp.com/customer/portal/articles/1846464-playback-speeds-latest- 3. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/downcast/id668429425 4. http://support.downcastapp.com/customer/portal/articles/1253642-change-log-mac .
