Hello everyone,
I have a suggestion about naming the files when downloading. When saving/downloading, I usually find myself adding the genre manually to the filename being saved, and usually (not always) the track title. I understand the limitations for track title to be added to the standard wikiloops_jam_ID[_SUFFIX].EXTENSION template -- like special characters, length, loopholes for excessive self-promotion, etc -- but the Genre is a mandatory category from the fixed small array and thus can be used safely in generating the filename. It would also be great if genre could be put right at the beginning, for better sorting.
Looking realistically (not all track parameters could be filled on upload or ever), me personally would prefer it to look like this (Discuss):
GENRE_wikiloops_ID[_SUFFIX].EXTENSION
Jazz-Rock_wikiloops_2359871_mix.wav
Jazz-Rock_wikiloops_2359871.mp3
World_wikiloops_23598_HQ.wav
This way all files will be categorized, without making the folder on HDD too crowded.
And also, the secondary sorting will be naturally in place, within genres (by track ID).
Discuss, amend, reject, propose, object -- anything you deem necessary.
