Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
Hi!
It failed again. I downloaded one file, then, a few miunutes later i wanted to download another, but antdm wouldn't intercept the download. had to disable and re-enable the addon for it to work again.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
nope, everything looks normal, but it just doesn't work until I disable and re-enable the addon.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
Is there some kind of pattern?
Can I 100 times by clicking on a link and to repeat the mistake at last?

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
when the problem happens, antdm just won't intercept ANY downloads, no matter how many times you try. you must disable and then re-enable the addon to fix the problem.
(you have to go to firefox addon manager, disable, then re-enable the antdm addon to fix it). the antdm icon in firefox shows it's enabled, but it doesn't work.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
If you want to repeat downloading of the same file (link) within an interval less than ~20 seconds, AntDM will refuse the re-download.
Is this not your case?

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
nope. you can downlad a file, then after a few minutes you want to download another and it won't work. it's completely random. It might work perfectly for a whole day and fail the next.
My only doubt is if this is a firefox problem or a problem with the addon itself.
If it's a FF problem, there's nothing you can do. If it's a problem with the addon, then you could do s/thing about it.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
Yep, I already read that. Most of the cases don't apply to me, unfortunately.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
There are 2 fixes, 1. delete extensions, etc and 2. create a new profile.
I meant, try the fixes and check the Firefox/AntDM issues.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
i can't create a new profile, I have too much stuff on my current profile that I don't wanna lose. Plus. I already did it a while ago (and had to learn magic to transfer all my stuff to the new one, which i don't wanna do again)

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
Problems can be more than just Firefox and antFF2.xpi.
in this chain there are Windows stream I\O and antFF.exe.
When you reset the addon, you reset to the initial state of all components. Next time try to kill only antFF.exe.
If the problem is in it, then capture files will have to start working again.
Interestingly, does the downloading files from the context menu work when this error happens? I think not.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
nice, I'll try killing AntFF and see what happens.
regarding the context menu, I'm not sure, I'll try it when it fails.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
Failed again. Killed antff.exe, nothing happened, the process was re-spawned, but it still AntDM wouldn't intercept the download. Disabled and re-enabled the addon (on FF's addon manager), that fixed it immediately.

Capture files from the context menu worked?

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
I had this same problem back when I was using FDM, then I switched to IDM for a while and it was very stable, no issues that I can remember.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
if I'm not mistaken AnDM and FDM uses stream IO, IDM WebSocket for connection to native part. But this is unlikely problem when the capture works from the context menu. It is worth to think about.

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
Well, you are the developer, I hope you can figure it out. All I can do is report the bugs I Find

Re: AntDM not dowloading a file
I updated the beta for you. A little change was done in Firefox addon.
General transfer of captured file to native part is made now similarly to the capture and transmission from the context menu.
Please tomorrow work with this build.
