I've been using Overcast, and have noticed that with certain podcasts, the audio ad-breaks seem to come in the middle of sentences, and there's no segue from podcast content to ad-read. Is that what you're referring to by "ad injection"? Or is just that the creator sucks at editing?
- MBCook 7y agoThat’s called ‘Dynamic Ad Injection’. It’s not Overcast, in fact Marco gets complaints about it. It’s the podcast host adding ads in via automated means that are supposedly customized for each listener. And doing a poor job of it.
- filmgirlcw 7y agoThat’s because the podcast in question probably uses a network/hosting service that auto-injects ads. Overcast does NOT inject ads into podcasts. It offers banner ads in the app for podcasts (and you can pay to turn that off), but it doesn’t inject any content into the podcasts themselves.
