Gamdl sometimes grabbing lower sample rate

[kisiel92]

I ran into a strange problem today. I've downloaded the same album a few times running gamdl <album link> and have had mixed results. On some runs, certain tracks are grabbed at 24-bit, 96 kHz, while on other runs I only get 24-bit, 48 kHz.

There doesn't seem to be any pattern as far as I can see

+1, thought this was just an issue on my end.

Do you have link examples?

I'm not able to reproduce it on the album it was happening on when I added the issue. It was this one soon after it was accessible at midnight EST.

I think what may have happened my case was Apple had not split Explicit and Clean versions of the release yet, so there were two 24-bit m3u8 playlists for explicit tracks and gamdl was arbitrarily picking one of the two to use to download. They just happened to have sample rates which made the file sizes very different.

For me, gamdl was only grabbing 24 bit 44.1khz of this track despite it being available in hi-res lossless. Had the same issue with this one too . Tried tracks with sample rates up to 176,400kHz and they worked fine so perhaps this issue is only with 192,000kHz tracks. If not, I guess the songs are incorrectly encoded by Apple and the program does return the real sample rate.
