Aerosmith - Jaded - www.mimp3.net.mp3

Somebody knows how make this?

Thank you, im wait the answer

 

Hi,

You could make a PHP script to rename all your songs in your directory and just serve them with the name already changed.

or you can change the name "on-the-fly" with PHP - an example function:

	function RenameSong($oldName, $newName)
	{
		if(isset($oldName) && isset($newName))
		{
			if(rename($oldName, $newName))
			{	
				//Carry on with the serving the download
				//Present the $oldName variable link to the client
				return true;
			}
			else
			{
				//Renaming failed
				return false;
			}
		}
	}

PHP:

of course asuming that the download is not a static link on a page. Hope it helped a bit,

PS. More on PHP renaming on PHP .net

Regards,

Steve

 

Hi,

My question is are you just wanting to rename the file/mask the filename when it is downloaded OR completely rename the file on the server?

Depending on what you want to do, there are different ways to do this. Reply, and I will be able to assist you.

 

Hi, thank for your answer. This script was made is the song is buffering in the server and is downloading between is buffering. I thing thats is possible change the name before start download.

Sorry is understandme, but im from mexico and i dont know very well the english. If you need more information, please tellme.

thank you

 

Change the $name variable. Should be able to add

$name .= " - http://www.google.com";

This will add a link at the end of name, I haven't tested it, but you can try that. function_list.php should be the place to add it.

Once again I haven't tested it, and http://www.x10media.com/forums may result in better answer.
