    What controls the sorting of the RSS feed itself?
    The player shortcode allows for sorting of the playlist asc or desc, by ‘Recorded Date’ or ‘Published Date’…and that is working.
    However, when the RSS feed is loaded into a reader, or VLC player, the episodes are not sorted correctly.

    Hi @robert63,

    RSS feeds are normally sorted reverse chronologically (most recent episode first, oldest episode last) by published date. You also have the option in SSP to sort the RSS feed by recorded date in Podcast → Settings → Feed Details → Source for publish date.

    The player shortcode attributes to sort episodes are done on the front-end for the player. These options don’t affect the usual reverse chronological ordering you’re used to seeing in other podcast players.

    I hope that helps. Let us know if you have any other questions and have a good day.

    Hi Jimmy @amongthestones

    The setting is ‘Recorded Date’ and the RSS feed is NOT sorted according to the recorded date. Any suggestions how to correct?
