DownThemAll!

 DownThemAll

Complete integration with Mozilla Firefox

You can easily access DownThemAll from the context menu, by right-clicking on any webpage, from ‘tools menu’, or simply by adding our cute handy icons to your toolbar.

Have your page spidered with a single click

The dTa ‘Select links’ window lists every single link, image or embed object contained in a webpage. This is a dream if you need to download a large amount of files in just a few seconds: simply select the files you need and you’ll be ready to start.

Have all the files you want with just one click

dTaOneClick downloads the files of a page using the last filters and the last renaming mask you set. So, if you are surfing the web downloading mp3s or pictures, for example, you’ll just have to find the page you want and to click on dTaOneClick… and all your downloads will start. No need to select them first.

Filtering has never been easier

Selecting the files you want to download can be even faster, once you’ve set your personal inclusive filters. In this case you’ll just have to select the filter you want to apply, and all the files matching your criteria will be automatically downloaded.

All filters are configurable from dTa ‘preferences’ window and can include wildcards [’*’, ’?’] as well as regular expressions.

There is also a live-filter that allows you to refine your selection dynamically!

Advanced auto-renaming options

All files downloaded by dTa can be easily auto-renamed according to your personal needs. There are plenty of tags you can use to build destination filenames and directories, including: date and time of download, website URL, link description and many more!

Increase your download speed up to 400%

DownThemAll features a smart download technique called ‘multipart download’. It splits files into multiple sections, which are downloaded simultaneously. This maximized use of bandwidth increases average download speed up to 400%.

You can manually add or remove sections whenever you want during the download, and you can choose the maximum number of chunks every file is split into.

Pause and resume your downloads

DownThemAll can pause and restart downloads at any time, without losing data.

You can move your files up and down in the queue in order to give them a priority order.

And much more:

• In case a file already exists, you can choose whether your downloads have to be renamed, overwritten or aborted just by setting a default behavior.
• You can customize time-out interval, as well as the maximum number of simultaneous downloads.
• Customize notifications, choosing between Firefox sidebox alerts, alert boxes, or simply nothing at all.
• If you want it, dTa can close the source tab when the download starts.
• You can choose to close dTa automatically when all downloads are completed.

Your first download

Downloading a file in dTa is fairly easy but also very powerful. If prompted to open or save a file you may use the DownThemAll! item. This will show a dialog where you may choose which folder to save the file along with some more advanced options.

Using the selection window

The context menu of a website offers a new DownThemAll! item. Using this item will show the DownThemAll! selection window, which you can use to easily select one or more links from a page.
In the selection window you have multiple ways to select which files to download:

• You may check the links you want to download by hand
• You may use the build-in or own Filters, e.g. to download all linked images
• Additionally you may type in your own filter in the Fast filtering box, for example *.pdf,*.doc or even a regular expression

The selection window contains two tabs, for two different types of downloads:

1. The Links tab containing all downloadable links found on the page
2. And the Pictures and Media tab containing all pictures and other media as shown on the page

Full-size images are often only linked from gallery pages, hence you'll find them in the Links tab

Once you selected the files to download hit either Start! or Add paused.

DownThemAll! OneClick

Once you made your initial download another item will be available: DownThemAll! OneClick. You may use this to download directly using the previous settings skipping the download adding and/or selection dialog.
Hence OneClick enables you to rapidly queue a lot of links.

Please note: After using the Clear Recent History feature in Firefox the OneClick feature won't be available until you start a regular DownThemAll! download again.

Downloading Batches

A lot of users want to download batches of sequentially numbered files. DownThemAll! lets you specify batches quite easily as the video shows.
The basic syntax is: [start:end] or [start:end:step] where both start and end may either be a number or a simple character. step defines the step width and is simply 1 if omitted.
For example if you'd like to download pictures from 001 to 100 you may change the URL to: http://example.org/[001:100].jpg
