DESCRIPTION ==>> I updated to current version (v4.5.0.248/"most current version available", on Win10/x64/ENUS/mostcurrentupdates) a few days ago. Now i use it for the first time since update, and EVERY way i use it i get the same bug:
EVERY file i download from youtube gets its filename truncated to exactly 50 character length, exluding extension. I use SmartMode=Enabled, MP4-Video, Quality=Original, Subtitles=None, Directory=c:\testshortdirname"
REPRODUCE ==>> Take for example original URL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA3QavPp1Ho, which should produce filename
"Joe Rogan Experience #1267 - Gary Taubes & Stephan Guyenet.mp4"
x) Copy URL to Clipboard, click "Paste Link" and start direct download. You get filename "Joe Rogan Experience #1267 - Gary Taubes & Stephan.mp4"
Thats EXACTLY 50 char filename (excl. extension)
x) Take playlist https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLk1Sqn_f33KvXucAFMo5Tc5p8e_mcc-5g and "Download Playlist". You get for that video: "69. Joe Rogan Experience #1267 - Gary Taubes & Ste.mp4", exactly 50 chars, including the playlist-numbering(!)
PROBLEM ==>> SOMEWHERE in your code, the filename is truncated at exactly 50 chars. This is a NIGHTMARE when downloading long playlists, requiring to go through ALL files by hand, renaming correctly one by one - exactly the tedious repetitive work 4Kdownload set out to take off our hands. This bug creates just the problem 4K should squash!
REQUEST ==>> Thanks for the otherwise great software, but PLEASE fix this! Or tell me what i do wrong and how to get right results... I cant think that the behaviour described above is intended, at least without users being able to configure truncation!
