So, if you play an episode of your podcast subscriptions remotely, it's marked as listened to in your master iTunes library, which consequently won't stop downloading new episodes.
You'll need to change two settings to get it working. That makes your tracks visible on the network to anyone else who is logged into your account using the same Apple ID up to a maximum of five devices.
Now, to make sure your remote listening habits are recorded in your master iTunes library, return to the Preferences pane's Sharing section and check the box beside 'Home Sharing computers and devices update play counts'. Now that you've set up Home Sharing, you can also playback your master library on your iPhone , iPad or iPod touch when you're connected to the same network. This lets you access your complete music library without installing it onto your device or paying for an iTunes Match subscription.
Now, when you want to browse your shared library, open the iOS Music app and tap 'More', then 'Shared'. This calls up a short menu showing all of the shared libraries on your network to which you have access. Tap the one you just created to access its contents.
A grey strap at the top of the screen warns you that you're not browsing the media stored on your device. Note that if you haven't changed Music's default menu bar, you'll need to tap 'More' to find your podcasts. Apple's sharing tools only make your library available on your local network. This is why it introduced its paid-for iTunes Match service, which makes a copy of your library available through its iCloud servers for access wherever you happen to be, on whichever device you're using.
However, there are some instances when iTunes Match is overkill. Just make sure your computers are powered on, awake and have the Music app or iTunes for Windows open.
To go back to your music library, click Eject in the sidebar. You can use Home Sharing to stream music, films and TV programmes from one authorised computer to another. To see all of your shared libraries, click Music in the top left-hand corner of the iTunes window. To use Home Sharing to access your computer's media library on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, sign in to Home Sharing on your device:.

See shared music Open the Music app and tap Library. Tap Home Sharing. Don't see it? You can manually select the playlists you want to share in the provided list. Require password — this lets you add a layer of security to your content sharing. You can specify a password here that the receiving computer will need to enter before they can access your content.
Finally, click on OK to save the changes. Your iTunes media library has been successfully shared on your local network. Sometimes due to firewall restrictions, the receiving computer might not be able to access your library in the first go.
However, you can change an option in your firewall settings so that iTunes can receive incoming connections from other computers. Press the Windows key and search for and click on Control Panel to launch the panel.
Then find and click on the option that says Windows Defender Firewall to open your firewall settings.
