Limit # of Downloads Per Host
I dunno if this is already a thing (I didn't find it when I last looked not long ago), but it would be nice if I could limit the maximum number of downloads occurring per host so that I don't run afoul of any kinda host limitations while still being able to max out number of simultaneous downloads.
I realize I could (and have been) micromanage my downloads but it'd be cool if there was a global setting in the Settings menu, doesn't even need to be configurable, just a "limit to 1 download per host" setting that you can tick. Last edited by Noodler128; 11.09.2024 at 21:48. |

you can define custom chunk values in package customiser rules based on host, and specific to type like image/archive/video etc.
and in advanced settings > domain rules, you can define max sim dl for that host. see https://support.jdownloader.org/en/k...e/domain-rules max sim dl * chunks = total connections. fyi, both of these option have been around for many years.

@raztoki
Are you sure that custom chunk values can be set with domain rules. I'm asking because I can't see it and there is still this ticket from 2015: https://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?p=497341

Still not possible under my understanding. having chunk values within package customer can be annoying but also more flexible as you can have different setting based on file type eg, images 1 and videos 4 for instance. or or even size >4gb <2gb
Only settings outside of that is like plugin settings I know which give outside chunk values for example yt, this is rare.

@Noodler128: Are you talking about number of chunks/connections or downloads?
It is already possible to limit number of concurrent downloads per host.

Number of downloads per host & number of connections per host. Hopefully what I say next will help clarify what I'm after.
I know you can limit the number of simultaneous downloads that JDownloader can perform, but am unsure of it being possible to have a secondary limit that applies per host without being required to specify a host. There isn't a intuitive UI for it, but it sounds like what Raztoki mentioned would be able to achieve the latter with this code: [ { "domainPattern" : ".+", "enabled" : true, "maxSimultanDownloads" : 1, "allowToExceedTheGlobalLimit" : true } ] The above combined with setting the "Max. Simultaneous Downloads" item in the Settings menu to 100 should allow 100 simultaneous downloads if you're downloading from 100 different hosts, right? And no more than 1 download per host? |

Sorry The advice I gave I did assume that you wanted to define something specific to a host. You can define max sim per host globally already within graphical interface without the need for domain rules in a generic form like you've provided above. Either by right clicking on the speed graphic and selecting the 'max sim dl per host' setting, or via the bottom right hand corner spanner X screwdriver icon in the download tab, or in windows and linux? There is a main menu 'settings' (not available in mac). By default JD limits/defaults the max sim dl to 20 globally, so 100 wont work. You can override it with domain rules (referenced in that support article) though, keep in mind you can not override plugin defined upper limits yourself, so most likely have to be spread over multiple hosts/plugins to gain higher amount of concurrent downloads.

Turns out I am an idiot and what I want is in the "Settings > General > Download Management" section, assuming it wasn't added in an update after this topic was created. And the menu bar too I guess, I dunno why I was glossing over it >:V
