Hej Frank!

Welcome in advance!

Where are you gonna live? You don't need to specify city, but perhaps approximate destination? Jylland, Fyn, Sjælland? And which part?

Which line of work?

Indeed, try to learn Danish even though it is a ridiculous language. I believe there are even free courses, although I am not absolutely sure. Here's a few words to get you started:

Hej/godmorgen/goddav' = hello/good morning/howdy (last word especially in Jutland)
Farvel = goodbye
Tak = thank you
Velbekomme = you are welcome
Undskyld = sorry
Undskyld mig = excuse me
Ingen problem = no worries
Jeg hedder Frank = my name is Frank
Godt at møde dig = nice to meet you
Vi ses/hav det godt = see you/take care
Hav en god dag = have a good day

And remember! Free health care! Free schools and education! Although you will pay higher taxes, lol.

Hope you will enjoy! And feel free to ask questions. I live very near Aarhus in Eastern Jutland.

EDIT: formatting some how went wrong, just realised now. Sorry! Fixed.

That is very kind of you - thank YOU as well! :)

And insightful answer, thank you very much. Forgot all about that VLC could provide such useful information.

The main thing I’m not following is what you mean by having parse errors in Mp3tag.

Indeed, no metadata is present but the "Tag" still shows alot of parse errors (image attached). So if I edited some metadata, it would not show in Windows Explorer for instance. Image attached

And yes, audio is all good despite parse errors, but my inner nerd would like to optimise and put in correct tags and what not ;)

As mentioned above, it was the first thing I did which apparantly did not work - now it does, though! Oh well. Perhaps it was a fresh download that did the trick, I am not sure!

You gotta be kidding me..

I initally tried renaming the files to .m4a but Mp3tag still showed parse error.

.. But I tried once more per your suggestion and behold! No parse error. I am not sure what I did differently (obviously user error nonetheless!)

But thank you so much, I learned a lot!

"Right-click Save As" download different file type than URL shows in Firefox (lemmy.ml)
 

Hello there,

First of all; I am sorry if I am using the wrong community - and sorry for any n00bshow regarding this post since I have not done this before.

Background: To my utter delight, I found a podcast on archive.org that I have been searching for. I have succesfully downloaded all audio files listed under "VBR MP3 FILES" as a .zip file (and as a torrent), and they will download as .mp3-files. I am on Windows 10 (sorry, I will change) and using Firefox as browser.

Very long story short, a lot of files had parse errors in an ID3 editor (Mp3tag), and I incidently found out that most of the files actually seem to be .m4a-files instead of .mp3.

Nonetheless, all URLs on the podcast's main page show as .mp3-files and will download so if downloaded as a .zip or through torrent. (Or if using Edge, apparantly, which I just tested).

Issue: What is REALLY weird (at least to me) is that if I am right clicking a single link to an episode in Firefox > save link as > my dialog box shows it will save as .m4a-file - which seems to be the correct file type (with no parse errors in Mp3tag) which I naturally would prefer. Screenshot attached.

If been trying to search for an answer my self what is happening, but evidently failed to do so. Does anyone have an answer? And for a bonus; is it possible to batch "save link as"? wget on a Linux machine? downthemall on FF likewise download files as .mp3.

To hopefully reproduce:

  1. Downloading first episode "2015.11.01 - #1 – 1. Mosebog, kap. 1, vers 1..mp3" for instance as torrent
  2. Download the same episode by manually browsing the episodes with Firefox > click "VBR MP3" under "download options" > right click “2015.11.01 - #1 – 1. Mosebog, kap. 1, vers 1…mp3” > save link as... > it will hopefully download as .m4a.

THANK you very much in advance! Have a good one.
