Title: Download queueing
Post by: darklegion on May 02, 2005, 08:48:38 AM

I think a useful feature would be the ability to queue downloads,so that you can keep an optimal number of downloads running at any given time without slowing down file completeion rates,along with eliminating the need to add new downloads as frequently.Preferably I would to see it work on a per file/catagory basis so that for example,you could have a complete tv series queued with only the first 2 episodes downloading at the beginning,and then have the 3rd episode start downloading once the first/second one is completed.Alternatively(or additionaly) it could be done on a global basis where if the number of current downloads falls below,say 30(that number would be configurable) it will add more downloads from the queue.Would be nice if this would work with amuleweb/daemon/gui too,although beggars can't be choosers :)

Thanks

Hmm,have played a bit around with that option but it really does need to be more configurable.The problem I have with it is that it starts "all" paused files in a category instead of just 1 (or any configurable amount).
