amarok-2.0.2-6.fc10.i386

I use Amarok simply to manage a podcast collection. The issues I have seen are:

track info not displayed, eg time is 0:00
podcast menu does not stay up as last used menu, no big deal, just goes to a usability issue
Have not been able to move forward and backward in a track, I suspect that is the engine?
On the engine, just check the Help README and saw mention of  "Settings>>>>configure amarok>>>>>>engine" certainly not on my 2.0.2 install, so how do I find this?
Their is no obvious way to know what podcasts have been downloaded/played etc in the list panel.
