OK, I take back some of the cool kudos :-)

I seem to have lost the podcast entries from the Audio, podcast settings, after doing the reinstall of Canola again after the Cleanup.
The normal Audio files are still there, so how come the podcasts are cleaned up ?

Is there a way to define a storage location for the Podcast entries, so that on future cleanups it also wont get deleted ?

But thanks nevertheless for the cleanup and clean install of Canola.
