Filename issues

Hi

Is it possible to define what you want the file name of files to be when a user goes to download them?

The issue I have is as follows.

I have a directory structure such as "Events/2012/02/my_audiofile.mp3

The name of the file when the user download ends up being something like "Events_2012_02_my_audiofile.mp3" whereas I just want it to be my_audiofile.mp3

So are there any options for filenames that I can adjust to get the desired result or for the filename to take the name of the file as defined in the database?

Thanks in advance and congrats on an amazing product.

    open file /views/file/view.raw.php

    on line 49 you find this:

    $this->fileName = $fileName ;

    you simply need to set there the filename you want. for instnace, use explode() function on $fileName with "/" and use the last piece. do you know what I mean?
