We're working on the localization of our program. Thank you for the suggestion and sorry for the inconvenience.

Unfortunately, the feature hasn't been implemented yet. For now, you can use FDM3 where batch downloading is supported.

The window where you can give a name to download:

________________________
[ FILE NAME.mp4 ]
[ http:.... ]
[ Save to: ]
[ C:\ ]
[ file size: xxx ]
[ CANCEL DOWNLOAD ]
----------------------------------

After installing update to 5.1.10.3477 the window became much more narrow. But why?

I have a Full HD widescreen. Windows supports more than 9+3 characters. It is alos not possible to drag edges and make window wider. This is a step back :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Hope to see wider download window again with next update.

-------------------

I also hope to get a 2nd question like "Sure to delete [Yes/no]" after chosen "delete file"and "remove from list". Or "undo". Otherwise FDM is a risk to use for me :evil: :evil:

Thank you.

Because of the not useful narrow window where I give a name to file and set path, I need to go back and get rid of update, please. Where can I find previous version for installation, please?

PS: when rolling out update, please tell what has been worsened, because if I had known about the really narrow window that cannot expanded any more, I never would habe installed the update. I am really sad now because the small window hinders me a lot :shock: :shock: :shock:

Still a reminder to my feature requests:
It would be great, if a general download folder can be set, so that each download I will start, does not ask for or display the download folder.
Is it possible to add an option for website max. connections?
Is it possible to add the 3.7x features in advanced settings so that users who need this can edit the settings, and users who are happy with the default settings are not confused?

well, you can change it to ask change it to always ask for the time being. [ Settings > Advance > Delete button action ]

its a beta build and its bound to have bugs, which may increase with feature addition. so, if you plan on updating or using it, you should use it knowing that; rather then complaining about it.

check out traffic limits in settings.



@Devs it seems there is a BUG after the latest update. the download location is changed to download folder instead of download to last downloaded location option.

ANSWER: when choiosing option "delete file" or "remove from list" for download list of FDM with right mouse key there is no 2nd question like "Really delete/remove? Yes/No" to prevent deletion/removing if action was done in an error.

i noticed that as well, there is no second action promote window when delete file is clicked from right-click menu. i barely have problem with that as i usually press delete button. as i said before, you can change it to ask change it to always ask and you can always find the deleted files in recycle bin.

there is no mirror for previous beta versions at the moment, sadly. i recommend you to wait, the devs might fix the problems in the next update.

Hello,

You need to look at the flash video download, FDM fails to download videos from most of the sites other than youtube, it download the HTML page instead.

Thank you.

I guess there is a silly bug.

In "Browser Integration > Skip files with extensions", the extensions added are case sensitive.

Like, if I add "jpg" into the list, any file with extension "jpg" will be ignored, but not the "JPG" ones.

To recreate the scenario, I used nodejs based local server and served two files, one with *.jpg and another *.JPG, and while saving them from browser, the "jpg" one was excluded but not the "JPG" one, in my exclusion list only "jpg" was listed. The same thing happened vice versa. And, when I added both "jpg" and "JPG", both files were ignored by FDM.

So, I think, making the exclusion function case insensitive would be nicer.

Thanks :)
And by-the-way, the latest update brought some pleasant UI updates 8)

Dear users,

We're sorry for the inconvenience you have to experience with the new design. We highly recommend you not to step back to the previous FDM version and kindly ask you to wait for the next release where the old wide windows will be returned.
