Hmmm....

Maybe developers can add something simple like for now (until more flexible Event Manager is written):

URL clipFile;
try {
clipFile = new URL("file:"+"c:\\WINDOWS\\Media\\tada.wav");
AudioClip clip = Applet.newAudioClip(clipFile);
clip.play();
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}


Possible place (I've tested and it works):
class PluginForHost,
method: getCaptchaCode
right before initializing CaptchaController.

I'm not sure if it'll work for most captchas, at least it works for fileserve, hotfile.
Of course this is simple, temporary solution - for other OSes than Windows - the sound file should be distributed with jD and placed somewhere into jD directories etc etc...

Why are you printing a stack trace?

a) because it's similar to the exception handling some lines above for:
final BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(file);

b) it's quick solution (template) given in Eclipse for exception handling

Probably it should be something similar for logging exception messages in jD,
maybe: JDLogger.exception(e);

LOL. That's called a copy & paste programming style.

You're wrong. This is template for exception handling suggested by Eclipse.
You can customize it for your requirement or you can leave it without any change.

Add event sounds. the event manager is very necessary. Every time that Jdownloader download files, I do other task.
When windows are open (such as office applications or a browser - chrome or firefox), I can't see the box to enter the captcha manually.

This isn't normal. Please provide a complete and detailed log?

I would love to have this feature, too.
Even though I can be alerted to poping-up "Enter captcha" window by using another software, I would prefer to have it an integral part of JDownloader.

The JD developers plan the sounds on pop-up in the future. Because there are insufficient developers available, new features have to wait their turn.

The default sounds will be distributed with all copies of JD (JD is portable and all JD distributions are the same, regardless of OS).

I'm downloading a game that is 30 files long and each 100mb from FileServe. i'm away from the computer, daydreaming, but I have to type a ReCaptcha for each file. Please, play a sound, so I can go to the computer to type the Recaptchas.

A couple of posts down, there's 4 pages about this.

I'm not sure if any of the scripts here http://board.jdownloader.org/showthread.php?t=21026 Useful Scripts from Users would help any if rewritten slightly for your OS but you can look and see until something better is finalized. BTW there is already one for winblows labled Captcha Sound Alert for JDownloader [AutoIt - Script Code] (Updated 9/20/2010)

I think that kimmi1206 want a sound when window popup for entering captha appear

Please make sure that you are not running any applications in "Always on top" mode.

hello there 4 all
i digged and solved my problems in linux with sound on window popup - i described that solution more here:
murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=60145

Hi all!
I wish to enable a sound alert when Jdownloader ask me to write some capcha.

Is it possible?

Thank you!

Woohoo Mac users! I just dug up a nifty little program that works out nicely. Screen Watchdog let me select an area on my desktop to monitor (e.g. the JD dock icon) and play that lovely submarine ping whenever it bounces. I just have to remember to click out to the finder after entering the captcha. Of course, it also pings whenever I cursor over the dock, but I can live with that.

macpod.net/software/ScreenWatchdog.php

I wrote a vey simple tool for Windows (a standalone tool, not a JD plug-in) for captcha alert. You find it here.

Ich würde mir wünschen einen Sound einstellen zu können der mich darauf hinweist das eine eingabe eines captchas gefordert wird.

da ich mit einem anderen rechner die downloads laufen habe als das ich arbeite muss ich öfter die downloads neu aktivieren da ich die codeeingabe nicht immer mitbekomme.

Sometimes (i.e. having jDownloader running in another computer in the room), the CAPTCHA prompt windows don't get noticed.

Will be very useful to make this windows sound with some beep or allowing the user to specify a sound file. (i.e in Settings -> User Interface -> Advanced -> Specify sound for user prompts)

Thanks!
