Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Rafiuth/Soggfy/issues/64

When playback of a song finishes, in the song list I can see a red cross. Hovering over this red cross shows the message Unrecognized audio codec, and no file is saved.

I have the defaut settings and I'm using Soggfy v2.5.0

I'm having the same issue since a few days ago. It took me a while to figure out what was going on, as I was downloading a podcast and the red cross doesn't seem to appear there (only in regular music tracks, but both kinds of files fail to download).

same here. I'm having the same issue. I was using the old version of spotify and soggfy so I tried to download the latest one, some of the songs are able to download but most of them are getting unrecognized audio codec

Dupe of #12? Spotify switches to a different codec if the streaming quality setting is not set to high/very high, which is not supported by Soggfy (iirc, it's low quality AAC wrapped in a proprietary file format, I don't see any reason to bother supporting it).

Alright, after setting the quality to "high" I'm getting a different error.
