There is a bug for this plugin.

This site has a 50 GB daily download limit for premium, I started downloads leaving 128 MB of bandwidth remaining.

Why did I get this error message 60% into the download?
Not enough traffic available 2.358 GiB required


Is the app trying to deduct another 8.02 GB of bandwidth from the account?

There isn't a way to restart that download, the bandwidth error message won't go away.

I went to tezfiles and it shows 128 MB traffic remaining but it lets me begin this download because it recognizes that I have an existing download from earlier so it doesn't double deduct the bandwidth for the same file. This hosts implementation doesn't take that into account?

I extracted the direct link from the website which begins with
**External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff**

It's the same file but Jdownloader doesn't have the feature to change the link to resume the file so I am forced to start from the beginning.

But I found a way to resume it using Firefox. I begin the download and pause it, rename the part file from Jdownloader to match the Firefox part file, go back to Firefox and resume. I tried the same thing on this app but it doesn't resume. It didn't even prompt me for what to do but I think it would only rename, overwrite or skip.

There isn't a way to add a http link and resume from an existing partial file?

@minixbox: many site do deduct the whole file size on download link generation starting 5 10Gb files will require 50GB of traffic. that way you can resume/download it with multiple connection but the file is only counted once. counting each connection and traffic takes much more effort/work and only very few sites do it that way.

You can add any http link and download it manually by adding

direct**External links are only visible to Support Staff**

in front of the URL to force use of generic http plugin but you will not be able to resume files that way as resume information is not available and the file can have holes when downloaded with multiple connections/chunks.

Plugin checks for resumeable/cached link and then "enough traffic check" doesn't apply.
That means that the cached link no longer works/is expired and JDownloader has to create
new one and that most likely failed due to not enough traffic

No it does not, because it cannot know. We can try to add support for this

we will check/add support for this to not check for enough traffic if there has been valid link within the last x hours.

The direct link appears to be valid for 24 hours

I generated another direct link a few minutes ago and it has this: temp_url_expires=1722011566

That unix timestamp is about 24 hours from when I generated the link

I'm aware of this but I was not aware that generating a new link within x hours does not credited on traffic. Can you please test and verify this? eg generating a new link in browser for a file, check remaining traffic and then generate a new link for same file and check remaining traffic again

But this would also mean that the website would allow you to generate a fresh direct URL even when your traffic is too low at this moment as long as you've generated one before within the last ~24 hours for the same file?

@pspzockerscene: maybe fresh generated links do have shorter expire times? let's wait for feedback/testing from user

[pspzockerscene]

To be honest I wouldn't introduce any changes to our current tezfiles' plugin behavior unless we got the ability to properly test this.
Atm we do not have a tezfiles premium account but that would be needed to do the mentioned tests.
