    If possible, it would be great to limit the number of simultaneous downloads and then when the current downloads are finished, it automatically starts the rest of the files selected for download.

    If that isn't possible, plan B could be to have an ability to set a limit on the number of simultaneous downloads and the ability to set a timer which will start the next downloads in cue based when the timer runs out. That way I could approximate how long each download will take and set it/forget it.

    Thanks for the extension.

    It's a really nice extension, thank you.

    It would be wonderful if you implemented the custom download location. That would make it significantly more useful for me.

      Thanks.
      I do get this request a lot and would love to implement it, however this will take my sometime as web browsers are by design denying access to the disk and I'll have to implement a custom downloader.

      I defiantly will get to it and follow up.

    Is it technically possible to download the entire website, keeping its internal link structure valid and packing all that into a downloadable zip archive?

      It is possible and actually shouldn't be too hard to implement.
      I'll consider implementing it as a dedicated extension.

      Would you like to see this functionality as part of Download Master?

    Just wanted to say thanks, just helped me download ~700 zip files out of a possible 2800 zip files linked on a page. Probably could have done it in curl, but more fun and quicker watching all those autodownloads. Cheers and thanks again.

      Ei, espero que eu tenha traduzido a sua pergunta e minha resposta corretamente.
      Youtube vídeos de download não é suportado ainda.
      Não há nenhuma limitação no tamanho do arquivo ou o número de arquivos para download.
      Eu uso o Chrome mecanismo de download, as únicas limitações são as limitações do navegador Chrome

    Thanks for putting this extension out there. I don't use it as a whole, but more used it as a debugging mechanism for an extension I was writing that does targeted downloading for a specialized task.

    I have a suggestion that might help with the custom download location request.

    You could allow the user to specify a custom prefix and prepend that to the download file name to allow easy sorting and selection for manually moving the files. That would require some work to force the filename if the server sends the file with a content-disposition header including a filename. I have a function that would do that if you would want it.

      Thanks for the suggestion abuter, that is a good idea to help sorting and finding the files after each download.

      The next big leap forward of this extension is to download the files to a user specified location on the disk. I know that by design I can't do anything out of the browser sandbox, do you know of any Chrome hook to enable an access to the disk from a browser context?

      You can write to my email if you like monadikotita@gmail.com

    Love the extension. closest i've seen to downthemall and i like that as i don't like using firefox. Is there anyway you can have it so it only displays link items instead of all items on the page so if you wanted rip only full size images not the thumb images. Or really anything.

    I recommend allowing user-defined pre-sets. IE, if I constantly needed to download photos from a camera's upload, I could set up a "IMAGE_CAM_" checkbox near the ".jpg" and ".exe" options.

    Also, allow Wildcard characters...would help a lot! :)

    maybe i don't get it, but if I want to download multiple files and click on download, a 'where to save'-dialog opens for every single file, which means that files are not been saved if I don't hit save fast enaugh, which I can't. Maybe you can implement a directory chooser to specify the download loacation. Unless I have to disable the option 'ask where to save', which I don't like. Beside that, it's a really good, easy to use extension.

      You do get it and it is annoying, I know.
      I tried to handle this scenario, but couldn't find an API using which I could access the browser settings (to get 'ask where to save') from the extension. Nor chrome has an API enabling me to download the files to a location outside of the browser sandbox.
      I continue to search for a solution, as this hurts a lot users.

      Do you want a separate button for the copy?
      You can actually just place your mouse pointer at the beginning of some link, then click left button, then while pressing the mouse drag it any link end. Then press Ctrl-C and then just paste to the notepad.
      Sorry if you aren't a newbie and the explanation is too detailed.

      Please let me know if this solution is good enough for you.

      In case jpg filter is not present, it means there is no jpg file linked in the webpage for Download Master to download.
