That's a good point. I manually checked to see what wget does, and it finds the direct path to the file and downloads it. However, it saves the file as the name of the file in the url, so what wget deposits is a file named download.php?id=27721. This doesn't get played by liquidsoap.
So the question becomes: how can I force wget to save the file as the name of the audio file instead of the name of the file in the url? Looking at the man page, I see there's an -O option. I didn't see anything else that might be helpful, but I'm not familiar with wget beyond the basics. I guess it's a matter of executing a wget command that automatically uses the audio file name: -------------------------------- wget -O phobos__sweet_peas_341.mp3 http://electro-music.com/forum/download.php?id=27721 --2011-09-29 13:34:22-- http://electro-music.com/forum/download.php?id=27721 Resolving electro-music.com... 173.201.189.104 Connecting to electro-music.com|173.201.189.104|:80... connected.

How would I get it to happen automatically? And then, how do I get liquidsoap to execute it that way instead of using wget with no options? Alternatively, I'm wondering if liquidsoap itself can rename the downloaded file - to anything it wants as long as the file extension is correct.
