Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/afkarxyz/SpotiDownloader/issues/15

First off, thank you for this! Several months ago I had created my own (much cruder) GUI for using spdl; that obviously stopped working once the tokens were implemented.

I was wanting to suggest adding an option for the filename to be in the 'Artist - Title' format. I downloaded the .py file and was going to mess with it myself, but I do not know how to compile it into an .exe file.

Thanks!

Edit: Also, is there any way you are able to put the release date into the year tag of the file? spdl used to put the full date, not just the year -- it has been greatly missed once I had to start using the website again!

  • Regarding the 'Artist - Title' format, this feature has actually been available since the initial release (v1.0) of the application. You can find it in the Settings section. Please check these settings again.
  • As for the date metadata, I will work on implementing this feature in an upcoming update.

Sorry, I do not see Settings anywhere in here; what am I missing?

Edit: I found the later versions that do have it. Thank you.

Thanks. Just a heads up it seems the files downloading from v2.4 are not true 320; when ran though Spek they are only showing 15 kHz. Files downloaded using v1.0 and v2.1 were both reading at 20 kHz, where they should be.

Thank you for the great feedback. In version 2.4, I used some components outside of SpotifyDown and didn’t require a token. In version 2.5, I’ll revert to using SpotifyDown.com directly and implement more proper metadata, including the release date. I’m currently working on it. Stay tuned for the update in version 2.5 in a few hours.

Everything looks great, but is there a reason you reduced the album art to 300? Would love to have the option if there is a reason to prefer that over the 640.

The reason is that the latest metadata only provides a 300px cover. If possible, I will add options for cover art sizes: 64px, 300px, 640px, and the original size of over 1000px.
