This morning I tried to download a number of mp3's from a lecture series (freely and legally available online) but when I searched for them from my media player app I discovered they were all titled "direct_download(x).php" instead of the normal "file name_number.mp3" and required manually editing the file extension back to .mp3 to function properly. It is specific to the site and the stock browser - switching to chrome or downloading .mp3's from a different (again, free and legal) site works normally.
Is this due to a change in the website? In the browser? Is there some way to fix this?
Technical info: Asus ZenFone 2 4gb ram, 64gb memory (stock, unlocked and unrooted) Android 5.0 Using default ASUS browser (because chrome doesn't allow you to set your download folder on MicroSD)
