Wouldn't it be better to simply download the file as-is? Then, when you play it, later on, let your player do its magic. That way, there's less transcoding of files, and whatever your current player is can do what it does best, as opposed to whatever abilities your downloader had some time ago. Having said that, it's only really worth considering if you're keeping the downloaded files for posterity. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.13.5-200.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Oct 5 16:53:13 UTC 2017 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted. There is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list. It seems the modern trend with Linux programmers is to change existing software so that it's more annoying to use (e.g. making reboots required, when they never used to be), then denying that *that* is a nuisance, then saying it's necessary (ignoring that several years of prior versions didn't have that stupid requirement), then complaining about being criticised for making things worse. Don't try giving me an Emperor's New Clothes routine, it won't wash. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
