Multiple URLs in a batch
Hi,
Pasting a list of URLs separated by a space is unfortunately not convenient for a long list. Could you allow one URL by line and allow a long list of URLs?
Also, is there a setting to limit the number of parallel downloads? For example there is a 1000 URLs in the batch but no more than 5 are processed in parallel, otherwise it's unusable?
Thanks
Many thanks for both suggestions.

Should have thought of that. It will be in the next release. URLs delimited by spaces, tabs, returns and linefeeds will work – but NOT a mix of those characters.
Also, is there a setting to limit the number of parallel downloads?
Also a good idea. I already have a warning if there are more than 20 items in a playlist.
I need to think more about how to implement it in the parallel downloads code. Currently the code initiates parallel downloads in a number of different places. So, need to design a good way of plugging a limit into each one. There's a good chance it'll be in the next release – user will be able to set the limit with "No limit" as default. Probably will make it a warning which user can ignore.
Cheers.
Sorry but, can't do this for the next release (v1.30). It will take more work than I thought. Hopefully, will be in a future release (v1.31).
