Feature Request: Set maximum number of books to download in a session

Open LoisGNS opened this issue 10 months ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I recently tried to download my library, which had over 100 Audible Plus books. After a while, I got a "licence denied" message and had to wait a day or two before I could resume. I have heard that it's best to limit the number of downloads made at once.

Describe the solution you'd like A setting that would allow users to enter a number or "unlimited." Another handy setting might be a button to pause downloads after whatever is currently running is done (say you need to shut down your computer and can't wait for a long queue to finish), then resume later.

Describe alternatives you've considered Nothing just yet, as I have limited experience with Libation, but it would involve various forms of manual selection, plus keeping track of what's yet to be downloaded.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

If this is done, it might be an idea to have the the option to have the limit only apply to books in the "Plus Library", since that seems to be the main trigger for rate limiting? Audible doesn't tell us what triggers it, but it SEEMS to trigger it faster with a lot of Plus Library titles.

I already requested this feature with more options here: https://github.com/rmcrackan/Libation/issues/733

Also, a pause button is redundant. You can simply cancel the books and then resume liberating them later. Any books currently being downloaded will be finished even if you cancel.
