When downloading with media format set to anything but mp3 i get this error:
[2022-11-11 00:26:13,213 :: worker/downloader.py -> 185: download_track() :: ERROR] -> Download failed for track by id '0CL7VjsK7XnkDqoFU6eTMD', Unexpected error: Traceback (most recent call last):

Pillow is installed and mp3 works fine, I'm on Arch Linux installed from AUR.

I know I shouldn't make a suggestion on an issue but it'd be cool to have a ffmpeg args/bitrate field. Thanks.

The issue should be fixed now, as pillow is packaged too if you were using binary packages ! For the bitrate setting ! The latest version from development branch should add a new ffmmpeg_args field in config file where you could add any other arguments that gets passed to ffmpeg !

Just tested dev and it's perfect.
This is legit the best app for downloading songs from Spotify, fast easy and really configurable, I love that it's qt too. <3
