  1. That is because you are being redirected anyway. Those parameters are probably some statistic/token specific parameters.

    The easy solution is to put "-O hak5--3x11--xvid.avi" at the end of your wget string, as it specifies the output filename.

    I was really looking for a way to download w/out having to input the output filename, or rename the files, but I guess this will work if there is no other way.

    Thanks Tenzer

  2. I use a linux box to download my episodes of Hak5, and because I am a linux newb (for the most part) I can't seem to figure out why the filenames come out all funky...

    For example:

    To download Season 3 Episode 11 - Announcement I use the following:

    wget http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.avi?http://media.libsyn.com/media/hak5xvid/hak5--3x11--xvid.avi

    this outputs a filename of: "hak5--3x11--xvid.avi?nvb=20080824163316&nva=20080825163316&t=016455d6d26449aa97294"

    What am I doing wrong here?

    I also tried removing the redirect using:

    wget http://media.libsyn.com/media/hak5xvid/hak5--3x11--xvid.avi

    and it still outputs a filename of: "hak5--3x11--xvid.avi?nvb=20080824163527&nva=20080825163527&t=04177d1610bfb3ebd7e8c"

    I realize I can just rename the files, but I'd rather download directly from the source so that I don't have to keep renaming. Can someone help me with a solution please,

    And Thank you,
