saved file name

Post by seawind »

Saves files as title followed by _ptracking.flv. Why are file names always ending with "ptracking"? Can a setting be changed to drop "ptracking" from the file name? FG 1.5.4, FX 10.0.2, usually occurs on yt.

If you disable all other extensions & plugins (except Flash) do you still get it?

Search isn't finding much?
