Download audio files with user-assigned file name rather than system encoded file name

As an audiobook narrator, the audio samples from my website may be downloaded by publishers and casting directors. They typically require a specific format for file names that are easily understandable. It is likely they would refuse to download my samples from the Elfsight audio player because they are encoded and not easily understandable outside of you platform. Thanks very much.

    Dear friends,

    We're happy to say that uploaded files now keep their original names! 🎉

    Now you don't need to worry about your files being encoded when uploaded or downloaded.

    Feel free to test the widget out in our Audio Player online demo!

    And don't hesitate to share your feedback in the comments, we'll be happy to hear from you! 🙂

    Dear folks,

    Thank you so much for your warm comments! We try our best to implement features you request here, and we're so grateful for your help and suggestions :)

    This is just awesome that you're happy with this feature, and I wish you just a great user experience 🙂

    @Timothy Danko, I'm afraid this feature works only for newly uploaded files, I'm very sorry for the inconvenience!

    Thanks very much for implementing this idea. Will I need to upload my audio file again to enable this feature for my player? Thanks again ...

    Hi Raymond,

    Thanks a lot for your kind comment!

    Since we have a lot of requests in our wishlist, we have to pay attention to the most wanted ones and implement them first.

    However, we'll try to consider this idea as well - maybe we'll find a way to implement it sooner :)

    Thank you for your support and patience!

    I would love to see this feature as well, especially with audio/ album downloads from our site! Thanks Elfsight.
