Changelog for the next major CORE-update which has not been released yet:

- Added setting to move processed containers to trash RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=76018
- Added work on pre-validation of account login credentials (email/username, password, apikey, cookies) RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=94224
- Improved GUI feedback on invalidated login credentials
- Added auto truncating of filenames which are 'too long'. This only happens if writing them fails in the first place. If your OS does not have any filename-length limitation, this new handling will not affect your downloads. Path-segments will not be auto corrected, only filenames. RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=94210
- Added more precise error message for downloads which fail due to issues with writing the file: So far, that mostly resulted in error "Invalid download directory" while now it can be e.g.: Path too long, Filename too long, Permission problem. The "Invalid download path" message can still happen but it should now only happen if the path really is invalid e.g. contains invalid characters or is invalid due to other edge cases.
- added auto correct of wrong file-extensions when download is started. This will mostly affect downloads of image and video files.
- Added support for container 'SFDL' RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=86196
--> SFDL support comes with auto password handling and a password list which can be accessed via advanced settings: ContainerConfig: SFDLContainerPasswordList
- Added new advanced setting GeneralSettings.filenamecharacterregexreplacemap -> This is used to replace characters which are not allowed in file-paths though you are free to use it for global custom replaces as well. This is an effort to prevent users from getting underscores in filenames/packagenames thus loosing information.
- Added new advanced setting GeneralSettings.packagenamecharacterregexreplacemap which works similar to GeneralSettings.filenamecharacterregexreplacemap
- Advanced Setting GeneralSettings.cleanuppackagenames now only works for package names, not for filenames (that was confusing before)
- Account usage rules: Removed the ability to create rules for multihoster-domains as that doesn't make any sense
- YT: added two new tags [for recorded livestreams]: DATE_LIVESTREAM_START and DATE_LIVESTREAM_END refs #90404 Boolean 'isLiveNow' in YoutubeClipData can be used to easily determine after parsing, if that item is a currently online livestream. RE forum https://board.jdownloader.org/showth...606#post525606
- YT: added simple setting to put playlist-position to beginning of filenames no matter which filename-scheme the user has configured closes #89258
- Improved LinkCrawler rules handling, sometimes some results were not returned as expected, see: https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=94258
- Fixed filenames like "..mp4" resulting in "mp4" after Cleanup (extension went missing)
- Multihoster handling: allow multihost plugins to trigger "file not found" errors; if this causes trouble, we need to put some more time into this. Reference: https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=94812

Rough changelog of today's update:

MegaConz (mega folder links):
- treat unknown error codes as file/folder offline"
- display online items with invalid decryption key same as when user provides- or enters wrong password
- allow user to add folder links without decryption key, then ask user RE forum 96105
- also ask user for decryption key if key given in URL has invalid format
- added setting to fine control behavior for invalid/missing decryption keys since we can expect the key to usually be inside the added URL && valid
- By default, JDownloader will not ask you to enter the decryption key if your added mega links contain no- or an invalid decryption key - you need to enable this under: Settings -> Plugins -> mega.co.nz

Today's changelog:
Added feature "merge packages with same name":
- Works in linkgrabber- and downloadlist
- Works case insensitive by default (can be turned off to make it case sensitive)
- Only items with the same download destinations will be merged so if there are e.g. 4 packages all called "A", only those with the same download directories will be merged
- The items in the merged package will not be sorted in any way, all found duplicated packages will be merged into the first hit so the previous order of items will be kept
- If packages were selected before this action was triggered, only the selected will be used for duplicate checking/merging
- Comments of merged packages will also be merged together and new package will have that comment set
How to get/see/use this feature:
It is visible in both the linkgrabber- and downloadlist context menu in the other/more submenu by default.
Because of the way, our config system works, it is not visible for existing JDownloader installations.
Either open the menu manager and add the action yourself or simply reset your menu structure to default like this:
Rightclick anywhere in linkgrabber-/downloadlist -> Open Menu Menu Manager -> Click the yellow arrow icon on the left side -> Confirm the confirmation dialog if it appears -> Hit Save

New "move links to downloadlist" actions: Added setting to define collapsed/expanded package state in "Add links to downloadlist" action via menu manager.
This lets you control the collapsed/expanded state of items moved from linkgrabber to downloadlist.

Ticket:


New "move links to downloadlist" actions: Added setting for a final confirmation dialog to be shown before moving any items to downloadlist.
It has 3 modes:
- Disabled [default]
- Enabled: Threshold: Only display dialog if the defined min number of packages and links is to be moved to downloadlist
- Enabled: Auto: The above && dialog will not be displayed if other confirmation dialogs have been displayed before such as warning of duplicates of offline links. This shall help to not display the confirmation dialog in such edge cases where another kind of 'warning'/confirmation was already displayed before.

Before you ask: There is not "Do not ask again" checkbox because you need to proactively enable this dialog so a "Do not ask again" option doesn't make any sense.

Additional smaller changes:
- Add all links to downloadlist action: Grey out if linkgrabber contains zero items
- Packagizer: Added dynamic tag context menu entry "Filename without file extension"

Changelog for today's CORE-update(s):

Fixes/Improvements:
- Multihoster downloads: Do not trust a "File not found" status if it comes from a multihost, only trust it if JDownloader was unable to determine a valid online status from thew original host RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=95920 . In such a case, error message "Multihoster <domainOfMultihost> claims that this file is offline" will be displayed along with a retry wait time.
- Downloads which are skipped because an account is required can now display more detailed error messages instead of "Skipped - Account missing" for example "You need to be friends with uploader XY to download this file"
- Fixed some fav icon places where subdomains were removed even though they are relevant (examples: Add account usage rule action, list of supported multi host hosts). This had caused problems e.g. with drive.google.com being displayed as "google.com".
- Linkgrabber filters: fixed domains being displayed in a crippled way when subdomains were involved RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=94384

New features:
LinkCrawler rules:
- added ability to define custom headers (works for all rule-types) RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=96453 and https://board.jdownloader.org/showpo...2&postcount=19
- added support for all other supported cookies import formats (FlagCookies format and EditThisCookie format) RE https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=93193 . This shall make it much easier to add all cookies of a particular website as you can now copy(export) and paste them.
Once this update gets released, all of the new LinkCrawler rules features will be listed in the main LinkCrawler Rules help article.
