Your DownThemAll! and Browser Version and Language and Operating System

downloadthemall 3 & firefox 48.0.2 & windows 10

Expected Behavior

I would like to request a modification that would allow filenames with the number sign. Perhaps it could be replaced with another symbol (like how backslashes turn into hyphens and colons become underscores) or just omitted without losing the rest of the file name.

Actual Behavior

When the name includes a number sign the file name is truncate immediately before it.

Steps To Reproduce

There are many series of videos on youtube where the titles are numbered and include the number sign in the name. Here is an example of one such video: https://youtu.be/J1Fn_dpiCCM
If you try downloading the series, the fact that the titles are cut off at the number sign means that you must individually rename them by copy/pasting, which is not convenient.

Additional info such as log extracts

Please enable Diagnostic Logging in the Privacy tab of the DownThemAll! preferences and either copy/paste essential part of the log or attach the entire log. Please note that the log may include sentitive information which you have to remove prior to posting it!
