Few more wishes for future improvements
August 20, 2009 11:27AM
Hi again.

After half-year FRD usage I've got few wishes:
1. Alternate links for each download - usually for the same file there are links to different file hosters, so switch between them if current returns error or long waiting time or this host is in use by another proceeding download.
2. Ability to set some kind of "auto-action" on after download - first thing I do after archives downloading is running associated program to test it.
3. Web, mail, icq management interface - to give opportunity add, start, stop from far-far-away =). Web may be the simlpest way, but not everybody do have static IP. So if doing this think of them too.
4. Http & ftp files download - not to share internet channel between different downloading programs, browsers etc. It just gives easier way of common download managment.
5. Auto delete previous tmp files - some times when connection was unstable I've met broken-connection-tmp FRD files in download folder for 2 or 3 times. And they were "in use" when I tried to delete them manually. Of course they dissapeared after download finish, but getting 1Gb file it's possible to occupy the same disk space or even more with useless previous broken-connection-tmp files.

Good luck.

I vote for support of mirror links - frd would switch between those as needed.

The first proposal is excellent. Alternating between different hosts to download parts of a file. I use lists of links that appear on the site (for different hosts), then I put them for download all (repetitive) parts, then give them priority manually and manually remove those that are repeated.
90% of this is a tedious and repetitive work, made to overcome this weakness of FRD

Also, Extra options for premium membership downloads on host servers(i.e : MU, RS. HF. etc ...) that could download parallelel multi-file links. Thanks! . . .
