on my site each member (mostly voice actors) can upload a small voice demo (like John-Doe-VO.mp3. When I look into the folder on my server (comprofiler/audio) i see all the uploaded mp3 files but they are all renamed with field name and a random character string (cb_vo1_85_5a0e5309e1468.mp3). The embedded audio player has a download function and if an ad agency or casting agent want s to download the sample of John Doe (John-Doe-VO.mp3) he gets a file named (cb_vo1_85_5a0e5309e1468.mp3) which does not identify who the actor is. Is there any way to change the file name back to the name that was actually uploaded without breaking the player link?
here is my testing site:

Thanks for your answer but one thing puzzles me:
You however appear to be using an audio field, which has no need for the original name and so it doesn't maintain it.

If someone wants to upload audio (a demo like we do or even a song) why would there be no need to maintain the original name. If I upload 5 songs to your site and you want to check or download them you are OK with "cb_field_5844584" instead of the name of the song? All the mp3 files my members upload go in the same folder and get renamed and are therefore useless.

Are there any workarounds or options to rename them back without breaking the links. Do you think it is possible to use a work around by saving the name of the audio file (Frank-Doe.mp3) in a hidden text field during registration/uploading process and then rename them when downloading? (Probably would require extensive scripting )

Thanks again I will look at cb gallery.

Actually Community builder's embedded audio player has a download function i did not use any external player or plugin and on both, the profile view and the lists your player has a download arrow on the player...to be 100% sure I tested it on your cb demo site....added an audio field and uploaded an mp3 ...I am username hp3250 id # is 259:)
