Bug fixes, faster downloads and MIDI
Correct Download File Names
A bug that existed since… the beginning of media.io: When you downloaded a file that contained non-ISO-8859-1 characters (technically speaking), you would get broken file names. To be honest, I never noticed until someone from Russia told me. Crazy.
Faster Downloads
To make downloading faster, I implemented gzip compression for downloads. In April, this reduced the amount of downloaded data by 13 %. Less data to download means faster downloads for you (and less money if you are billed by bandwidth consumption).
MIDI
media.io now supports the popular MIDI format so you can for example convert MIDI to WAV.
media.io in Estonian
Thanks to Olav from Estonia, there is now an Estonian translation of media.io. Thanks, Olav!
Other performance improvements
I’ve made several small tweaks to increase site performance. The home page should now load in less than 2 seconds – worldwide.
