Managing file formats for Track and Playlist downloads

Since multiple formats are supported for individual Tracks in your DISCO, you can specify which file formats you'd like to make available for your recipients to download when sharing Tracks and Playlists.

Downloading different formats from Playlist Share pages

Downloading individual Tracks

When you share a Playlist, all available formats are attached to each Track. Recipients can specify which format they'd like to download using the Download dropdown to the right of the Track:

Downloading the entire Playlist

By default, when downloading the entire Playlist using the Download button at the top right of the page, only optimized formats (MP3 or MP4) of the tracks will be downloaded:

If you'd to change this so that the original Track formats are included when the entire Playlist is downloaded, follow these steps:

1. Open the Playlist menu (⋮) and select Playlist Settings.
2. From the Playlist Info tab, under Security Settings, set the Include original formats toggle to ON (it should appear green).
   
3. Click the Save Playlist button.

Downloading multiple Tracks

Recipients can specify which format(s) they'd like to download for multiple different Tracks at once. They can also download all formats available for all Tracks by clicking More formats and options.

This opens a window with all Tracks and formats listed. Once they've selected which format(s) for the desired Track(s), they can click the Download selection or Save to DISCO button.
