Thanks, Ralf

Enjoy!

Thanks, but...

Repaired in v5.1.11:
+ wide window is back
+ counts letters and shows message if file name is too long

Still a bug in v5.1.11 but was 100 % OK before v5.1.10:
- When switching from FDM wide window to e.g. browser and back, in 50 % the window is not selected. One need to click on it.
- Moreover: when switching from FDM wide window to browser and back, about 50 % the window is not selected and lost the cursor where I was editing. One has to search the place and place the cursor by mouse to proceed with editing.

Unfortunately, I nearly always need to switch between browser and FDM to add important information to the file names of the documentations. File names help me to search and find them (as one cannot search inside a mp4). Then I request please to check issue of loosing focus of download window and loosing cursor in file name when switching back to FDM v5.1.11. Thank you

To previous post an addition:

1.) After switching back from other software to FDM v5.1.11, it is also not possible to close window with ESC because window is not in focus.

2.) FDM v5.1.11 calculates the length of file name and one cannot press DOWNLOAD until length is OK. But there is a bug in software because download window does not show an error message because of length. But in the list of FDM there appears an error (in column "status"): "the syntax for file name, folder name or disk name is wrong"

Can you please examine these bugs?

Thanky

To previous post a 2nd addition:

As file name may be too long and FDM has a possibility to rename files, how can I rename the file, please? I cannot download again the file because it is not in server any more but in memory for24 hours to resume. Then, how can I rename the file, please

Thanks

Seems like the bug has been resolved. Thanks

can you please add an option, that a download starts directly (if you click on a link) without asking the destination folder? This was possible in 3.9 fdm. Thanks a lot.

will browsernativehost and winwfpmonitor always stay in my task manager?

Congratulations of the new version

+1 for virus scan integration

Default file download option is to Rename the file (i.e. auto-increment) if the file exists in target location, I would prefer Over-write but better option would be choice as per previous FDM versions

Unfortunately, the portable version isn't supported for now.

We're working on it. Thank you for the suggestion.

These are the supporting processes that enable browser integration. So, they can't be removed from your task manager. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We're already working on the issue. It should be fixed in the nearest releases. Thank you for the report.

Please indicate what type of downloads it was. Was it a torrent? Could you please give us the URL where you encountered the issue?

Here is an example (sorry please that the file name is in German). One can click "DOWNLOAD":
Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hör_2016-04-07_19451234567.mp4

But FDM FDM v5.1.11 gives out an error => "the syntax for file name, folder name or disk name is wrong"

Used destination path is o:\
Used link (sorry, the file is accessible 24 hours from now on): http://csa10.save.tv/377216_12174469_71 ... 1d_1/?m=dl

Summary:
Too long file name => Not possible to click "download" (OK):
Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hör_2016-04-07_194512345678.mp4

Long file name is 1 character shortened => Possible to click download but error (not good):
Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hör_2016-04-07_19451234567.mp4

Long file name is even 4 characters shortened => Possible to click download but error (not good):
Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hör_2016-04-07_1945123.mp4

Long file name is even 1 character shortened => Possible to click download and no error (OK):
Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hören_Wissen vor acht - Mensch - Kann man mit den Augen hör_2016-04-07_194512.mp4

PS: if path is changed from o:\ to e.g. o:\downloads\ then I think that long file names must be shorter. It would be good if FDM can calculate the file length that is really possible.

Thank you, regards, Ralf

I like the new UI.
But i completely miss some features in this new version.
i would love if they are brought back:
1.Download properties.There are a lot of websites,from where the download links get expired i used to generate a new link then and replace it from the download properties.
2.Download info while in progress.It is always a extra relief to see the download is going on fine.So speed always at bottom saves the time to open the whole app.
3.Increase or decrease connection count manually.
