View Full Version : Feature Request for RMC: Download playlists (who is in favour)..

Right now I need another application, like aTube Catcher, to download YouTube playlists.

AFAIK this feature is not yet available within Replay Media Catcher.
That aside, aTube Catcher saves files using their proper names, like:
"Excel Magic Trick 350 Conditional Format Values Listed 3 Times COUNTIF function Trick.flv"

I discovered that RMC is using cryptic names when saving files, like: YouTube - 63ab6ee80d9ed116.flv

It would be great if RMC offers the same features like aTube Catcher, or YouTube Robot.
(Or develop a plug-in, or RMC Pro, or develop a separate application that closely works together with RMC, whatever).

Great suggestion! While I don't know if this is possible or not, I will be sure our programmer see's it!

Right now, under Tools->Download, it is possible to paste one url only.

I have submitted a feature request separately to introduce something like a
Queued URL manager.

There would a be *new* feature like Tools->Queued URLs or so, that opens a separate window and autocaptures
the youtube url's once users right click copy those urls to clipboard.

Then, at the bottom of the window, some buttons like save/cancel/start and also the possibility to select a folder
where to store the videofiles.

Example: say, one wants to download 20 videofiles.
Open Queued URL 1st session - it catches the first -say- 5 urls from youtube,
user select the folder where to store
user start that session

but there are another 10 video files the user want to download
Tools->queued URL again (starts a 2nd session, 1st one is still running)
Do the same as above, in case of need select another folder, start.

And another session,3rd one...

Conclusion:
Basically RMC will download the videofiles by using a queue,
but the queues can also be queued, i.e. there can be 3 or more queues,
i.e. the user does need not wait until one queue has finished before continueing with the 2nd.

If there are a lot of urls, then maybe RMC should be able to import them as a .txt file.

But maybe these ideas are too ambitious..:)

AFAIK the "Download playlist from youtube" has a high priority, so we should see it pretty soon.

And, last but not least

I really hope it will be added to RMC one day.
