[Feature Request] Restart/resume download for unfinished downloads

Open rancidfrog opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

There is no way to resume download when internet loses connection, wifi signal lost for a moment etc.

Notification shows: could not download But, clicking on notification does not trigger a try again, nor does it ask user to try again.

This is more of a problem when downloading playlists.

We store .part temporary files in the download directory, which can be used to resume the same download. This feature will be considered in the next major update

Also, Does app check for completed items first or redownloads already completed files. As it is not clear at the moment, because you have to redownload playlist and app starts from beginning and iterates through playlist

The app itself doesn't know which item has been downloaded. It will skip it if there's a file whose name is exactly the same and resume downloads whose .part files exist.

Okay, thank you for clarifying
