#33 filenames from NPR podcasts can't be copied to MP3 player
Some time in the past month, NPR has apparently changed their filenames, and podget now downloads them with filenames like
npr_382897153?orgId=1&e=382897153&d=3215&ft=pod&f=510208.mp3
These can't be copied to my (vfat filesystem) MP3 players:
"cp: cannot create regular file ‘/mp3/15-02-01-npr_382936742?orgId=1&e=382936742&d=2935&ft=pod&f=344098539.mp3’: Invalid argument"
Some URLs which exhibit this:
http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=35
http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=510208
http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=510294
http://www.npr.org/rss/podcast.php?id=510298
(and probably everything else on npr.org).
In my podgetrc I have
filename_formatfix=1
filename_formatfix10=1
the latter after reading bug 27, which sounds like it was a similar issue about 10 months ago on other podcasts.
I haven't tried filename_formatfix2 through 9 ... should I?
Is there an option I can set to tell podget to always use characters that are legal for vfat filesystems, no matter what wonky characters are in the filename on the server?
