File name pattern - Save as original source filename.

Open m7ke opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Having a tag to save the media as the original filename would be useful. Such as:

https://i.imgur.com/avJ85ujP.jpg would be saved as avJ85ujP.jpg https://i.redd.it/e9im5jp9r80v.jpg would be saved as e9im5jp9r80v.jpg

Another example for https://i.redd.it/e9im5jp9r80v.jpg with the file name patterns set as: [author]/[created_date]_[source_filename]

would output: username/2020-06-21_e9im5jp9r80v.jpg

This could be useful, but not all downloaders provide a suitable file name to insert. I'll add this to the tracker to potentially circle back later if it turns out robust support is possible.
