Yes, I tried right-clicking and choosing Download as well, but that function only allows me to download one file at a time, so it does not offer any advantage over using a browser for the actual downloading. What I am hoping for is the best of both worlds, so to speak - the ability to keep the 1080 resolution which browser downloading gives me combined with the ability to set my computer to download a whole folder with many files on its own which MediaMonkey can (as opposed to downloading one file at a time via a browser, waiting for that download to finish and then manually add the next link etc.).
But I should mention that the links to the files on my Panasonic which MM displays look like this:
"
http://192. 168.0.143:60001/AV-0-258445456-0-0-268446404-PARENT-1-18-164860200_BDY?CI=1&fmt=AVC_TS_MP_HD_AAC_LTP_T&bitrate=6000&resolution=720"
In other words, they contain the string "resolution=720", and when I download via a browser, I always remove everything after the question mark (that is, what I paste into the browser's address line is: "
http://192. 168.0.143:60001/AV-0-258445456-0-0-268446404-PARENT-1-18-164860200_BDY" - I read in a forum that this is the way to do it). So perhaps you are right when you say that somehow MM "instructs" the Panasonic to send the files in 720 resolution. But if this is the case, why does MM do this - if I could get MM not to do this and so not add this part of the link, perhaps MM would also download the files in 1080 resolution. I don't suppose it is possible to somehow edit the links in MM by removing the parts after the question marks before asking MM to download the files? Or do you happen to know a download helper or similar where I could add a batch of links and instruct the program to only download one file at a time? I have tried a couple of download helpers, but they all try to download all links at once, and the Panasonic does not allow that, causing all but one download to fail.
Thanks again for all ideas you might have.
