Issue with downloading pages

Open Dramorian opened this issue 2 years ago • 9 comments

Though I set desired range, it ignores the feature and tries to download from the start

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

Tried it just now and it works fine for me, it only downloads the specific pages.

If you mean it starts with loading all the gallery pages, the script needs to get all pages' url before start downloading, to map each page number to the target url. At this step, it's not downloading, and it won't cost your image limits.

If it's not, maybe it's too late to ask, but do you remember what ranges did you set and which gallery were you downloading?

So, I tried again downloading from this gallery. My input is "2" and it downloads only 1 image, which is 2nd image in order in the gallery.

Tested it just now, and it works as intended. As you set Pages Range to 2, that means it'll only download page 2 only.

Maybe you're not familiar this feature, you cam move your mouse on the input box, it'll show the format that the script accepts:

Download ranges of pages, split each range with comma (,) Example: -10: Download from page 1 to 10 12: Download page 12 14-20: Download from page 14 to 20 27: Download page 27 30-40/2: Download each 2 pages in 30-40 (30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40) 50-60/3: Download each 3 pages in 50-60 (50, 53, 56, 59) 70-: Download from page 70 to the last page

As I'm not sure your input 2 means, so I list some examples to see if that helps you:

  • To only download page 2, you can set 2
  • To download page 1 and page 2, you can set 1,2 or 1-2
  • To download page 2 to 20, you can set 2-20
  • To download all the pages since page 2, you can set 2- (ignore the last number in range will download to the last page)
  • To download in odd (page 1, 3, 5, 7, 9...), you can set 1-/2 (start from 1, and download each 2 pages)
  • To download in even (page 2, 4, 6, 8, 10...), you can set 2-/2 (start from 2, and download each 2 pages)
  • To download with multiple ranges, use comma to separate them like 1,2,4-10,15-25/5,40- will give you page 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25 and pages from 40 to the last

I'm not dumb or anything, but it's not working for me as I said previously. It's downloading the 2nd picture from the first page in order.

Do you mean the page of gallery pages' thumbnail? If so, depending on your setting, normal thumbnail is 40 images per page by default, so you need to set pages range as 41-80; and large thumbnail is 20 images by default, so it should be 21-40.

Greetings, I think I am experiencing the same problem. It always starts with the first page. firefox_Z4Kc9f9fw4

@AbilityDamage checked that gallery just now, it seems that pages starting from 383, they're the same content of previous pages (page 383 = page 1, page 384 = page 2, ...)

Terribly sorry for the invonience, it turns out this gallery was the problem all along. https://e-hentai.org/g/737318/cf618528a4/?p=19 Starting from Page 19, it repeats itself with the exact same file names... A while back, I downloaded the 382 first images in order to get it done in 2 batches, due to the limits. I didn't expect such nonsense and would bet that Dramorian must have encountered and stumbled over the same sort of problem, perhaps even with the same gallery.

It's a small world indeed, thank you very much nonetheless
