Dear Alex;

i wish to know the status of stream download support in FDM. and kindly provide separate downloadable link for FDM portable in download section.

Hello, first time posting here.

It would be great if there is a 'site manager' feature which handles all authentication info, because the only thing that I can't do is download from authentication-required sites (incl. youtube and GDrive).

FDM always give me "This video is not available. Login required." despite I am adding it one by one, and despite my efforts to search solution on the internet which mostly says "it will gives you another dialog box with username and password for the download", in reality its dialog box never gives me a field to input username and password to download the file.

Thank you.

Please provide an example of what you want to be able to download with FDM.

I wish to see in the classic ways. FDM 6.x and above without torrent downloader. Can I get a version of FDM without torrent download engine and if required I can download and install manually.

thanks alex for giving me answer of what i seek. what about the direct portable version (*.zip) file in the download form. or able to install it as portable software during installation.

First post here. Been a long-time user of FDM 3.97 but never upgraded to the newer versions due to many features of 3.9.7 still being missing in the newer versions. Just gave v6.14.2.3973 a try since I noticed many of the previously-missing features have been added, but there are still a lot of crucial features missing such as:

- It doesn't seem to be possible to remove the default tags such as "video", "youtube", etc. in v6.x. I just want to separate my downloads based on "Finished" and "Unfinished" which is currently impossible. Moreover, paused downloads only appear under the "All" tag and not the "Active" one. I would like to have one tag for all "Unfinished" downloads, and one for "Finished". In 3.9.7, all "Unfinished" downloads, whether they are active or not, appear under "All downloads" with their respective tags, and all "Finished" downloads go to history. This is very straightforward and works greatly. It would be great if FDM 6.x provides the same functionality.

- Downloads imported from clipboard should start in paused mode just like v3.9.7, or at least an option be added to the settings to control the initial state of newly-added downloads.

- I couldn't figure out how I can reorder the downloads in v6.x. In v3.9.7 it is possible to do so by either using the respective shortcuts such as Shift + U for "Up" and "Shift + D" for "Down" (which was quite handy) or by right clicking on the download entry and choosing the appropriate move operation from the "Advanced" menu.

It would be great if these features could be added to FDM v6.x.

Order by Status.. or some better way to group active downloads at the beginning..

FDM 5 already has this feature. Why the downgrade?.
I think it's the main reason that prevents me from upgrading..

Hello,

First I'd like to thank you for this good and free software, it's really useful for me.

I want to add my vote to supporting downloads for youtube videos that requires authentication (for being private, or age restricted, or whatever reason requiring authentication first)

I wish FDM browser plugin can use the current session of the broweser to bypass the authentication required message.

Thank you

Thanks for the wonderful software! Have been a user for many years and have watched FDM grow.

I would love to see a way for the program to automatically move downloads when they are finished to another directory/drive. Or have as a right-click option "move to folder/drive..."

Please add support for macOS Safari 15

Please if it is possible add the speed limiter option for each download dilaog box.

Old features like site explorer from 3.x and choosing to automatically Overwrite/Resume/Rename/Ask If File Exists would be great

MS Store distribution (win 10/11)

I would like the download entries to be draggable, meaning they can be dragged into other applications such as file explorer/finder or Chrome.
