Resolved Question

filename problem

Mar 26, 2014 8:27AM PDT

Android 4.4 (Kit-Kat) has changed the storage requirements for SDCards. As a result, my podcast app, Doggcatcher, can no longer store the podcasts for CNET How To because the ridiculously long filename, coupled with the newly required directory, produces a path that is too long for Android to write. Could CNET please reduce the length of How To's filenames.

Thanks a lot. I would appreciate it if they would let me know so I could try the download again.
