Why in JD2 beta is the "Remove Existing Links" context menu option gone? It was very useful in preventing me from downloading the same files twice. It is so simple to write code that wold do this:

For( Index=1; !(Index > MaxIndex) ; Index++ )
{

 For( RowIndex=1; !(RowIndex>MaxrowIndex) ; RowIndex++ )
 {

  If( NewUrl[Index] = ListUrl[RowIndex] )
  DeleteUrl( NewUrl[Index]);

  }
}

Someone can code this in five minutes and have it in the next release. Besides, why did you take it out in the first place?

Think you mean this:

JD2 has new menu system, to be removed it had to exist and since it never existed in JD2 thus wasn't removed.

please use if file exists rule 'skip' you shouldn't download dupes then!, at least until other features are implemented.

is there a reason it hasn't been created by now?

[raztoki]

probably because Appwork coders not using such features themselves or see it as a high priority task ? but honestly I haven't the slightest.

That doesn't work in real life.
most movies and TV shows I download are in Rar split archives. I have to uncompress them to watch the show but I can't keep the Rar files on my computer, that takes up too much space so I have to delete them. This is the main reason I don't use Torrents; I can't keep the files long enough to share.

Once the file is deleted, Jdownoader will redownload the whole Bluray movie even though it was on the jdownloader list.

Keeping links in Download Tab is not a solution either, each link requires memory allocation and its silly to keep them just on the odd chance you download again. If you're manually importing content you need to make sure this isn't a problem in your due diligence.

I guess another solution for you would be history based on filenames of what's downloaded in db (raw filename) and extracted content added to same db. This way you don't download dupes. Though with that system it wouldn't work well with content which has common filenames, you would need way to override for such content. Plus system wouldn't work well with rule exists to override and then extracts content from archive which you already have... (still slightly flawed)

Hi there. I wanted to ask whether there somewhere a setting is that it detects duplicate links automatically.
After the update (JDownloader BETA 2) it detects duplicate records in Linkcollector no longer automatically (Entry already exists)

No duplicate link is created, only the notification shows that the link is online (now).

Memory is not an issue my computer rocks. Besides, my list is only a month long. I keep deleting the last months list entries. Basically I check several websites daily to see if they have any new shows available. I download the shows I think I haven't added to my list. Before I start the download I use to use "deleted existing links" and then start downloading.

I hope they add that feature back ASAP.

[raztoki]

If its only a few 1000 links it wont be a problem, but some people download many 100 thousand links per month/week/day (images for example).

Its not about if your computer rocks or not, JD and Java programs in general lock the program upper memory limit when it loads. You can not expand memory allocation outside that limitation. JD default limit is 512MiB

Time will tell, when the feature comes back!

In JD1 you can remove duplicated from the LinkGrabber that are already present in the Download list. This feature would be nice to have in JD2.

Thanks for the program

This is one of the most used things for me in JD1 - I really need this back!

[pspzockerscene]

Well then wait or use JD1.

GreeZ psp

can't use JD1 some of my hosters aren't supported anymore...

[pspzockerscene]

Well then there is only one option available

GreeZ psp

thats excatly what I'm doing - beg the developers to move it up the prio list

[pspzockerscene]

Just wait.

GreeZ psp

Give it to Me!

When adding items to the "linkgrabber" would like to see the ability to remove duplicate items that are already in the "Downloads" list. This was present in JD1.

Currently I have a few youtube channels that I update on regular bases. Problem is it adds duplicate items, and the only way to remove the duplicates is manually.

Wow! A lot more people miss the feature than I thought. I'm glad they upped the level to urgent. thanks!

Hi all,

Effectively this feature was very useful, and works perfectly in JD1, so I hope she could be added soon as possible

Thanks in advance to the team !

Ticket of post #2 done by coalado, wait for the next core update.

[chiuchimu]

I see the new update has the feature. Thanks!!!
