Hi,

Does the file name contain * ? That will not work. These characters is not permitted.

This is not a bug, this is Androis.
You can try to do this: Create or rename a file in your system that contains an * that not work.

The same just happened here: the band name *NSYNC has * in the file name, and the app can't save with this name. All invalid characters for filename and folders should be replaced or supressed by the app before writing in the disk.

[anjoku]

• is not a valid character in Filesystem.
  Maybe that could be the developer Yaronzz.
  Instead of a * another character is written.

My solution :

# /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/tidal_dl/util.py
# line 355
path = path.replace("/sdcard/Download/Shared/", "")
path = path.replace("/", "")
path = path.replace("\\", "")
path = path.replace("*", "")
path = "/sdcard/Download/Shared/" + path

I do not advice to use this before aknowledging what it does and how shitty it is
