Comment #1 on issue 4237 by mmacmil...@sarjeantco.com: Split file download problem with Chrome http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=4237
To clarify, large media files are often split using splitter programs (such as HJsplit)for easy posting on the internet. Splitting the a 28mb file movie.mpg into 3 parts would produce files like: movie.mpg.001 (10MB) movie.mpg.002 (10MB) movie.mpg.003 (8MB) Windows does not typically "associate" .001 files with the HJsplit application, they just appear like unknown files in windows. Anyway, chrome is adding a file extension to the split files, and the files look like this after download: movie.mpg.001.mpg movie.mpg.002.mpg movie.mpg.003.mpg The user then needs to remove the trailing .mpg manually to join the files using hjsplit. Furthermore, Chrome is adding a second file extension to many downloaded media files, so I have many files labeled: movie.mpg.mpg movie.mpeg.mpg movie.avi.mpg -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
