Librey - Download Manager


Recommended Posts

Hello, dear neowinians.

We have done some major changes to Librey. As you may already know, Librey is a download manager coded in the .NET runtime. We switched now to the version 2.0 of .NET.

We are working in a team now:

- Dan C: User Interface, Integrating the Core in the UI

- Elexir: Core (Engine and Preferences), Multi-Language-Support

Librey's Features:

- Pause, Resume Download

- Supporting HTTP Protocol

- Thread-Based Download Process Model

Download Librey - Beta 1 [.zip] (.NET 1.1)

FINALLY! WOOT

edit: i have a few suggestions

  • Make it so it auto-downloads to a certain location that the user chooses
  • Make it so it auto starts, when its the only thing in the tray
  • When you click Advanced>>, you can click it again to not show what it says
  • Lets users choose whether to show size in Mb or Kb
  • Make it show the % done in the system bar
  • When minimized, librey is sent to tray?
  • Feature: Exit when all downloads are done
  • Download limiter
  • Turn off comp, when downloads are done
  • show a warning when a download is finished, maybe like a small popup at the bottom right of the screen
  • Ability to download from multiple sources
  • Make a plugin for Firefox? So when users click a download link, Librey automatically opens?
  • when a file is added while another is downloading, the one downloading should remain on top of the list, while all the others go below it
  • List from top to bottom, should be oldest to newest, so every new file is added below the one before it

OMG! I see what I can do ;)

If you'd like someone to design a program icon, shoot me a PM.

586329625[/snapback]

I would love to have a nice application icon! :) I've added you in my MSN account.

Looks good Rus (Y)

Thank ya, man ;)

Come on, it's extremely simple to do speed and time remaining... I expected to see more than this. What about HTTP redirection, referrer and cookie handling, three very important features. I'll stick with my homemade DM, thank you.

586329684[/snapback]

Thank ya for you comment. The HTTP redir, I'd like to find out how it's working. So, we'll see what I can do. ;) About other features... Maybe.

Updated the 1st Post.

Please, we need your feedback!

Me and Dan C spent the whole day on testing the Proxy feature. Well, it seems like there is a problem when a Proxy server is being slow.

That's why I'm releasing here now a nighty build.

This has all the features like before, only the Proxy support has been added. Also a small skin change.

Download Beta 1 Nighty Build [.zip]

Where to find the Proxy Option? See screenshot.

Thank you.

Please, when you find a bug, report. Thanks again.

    • I am not a fan of haptic feedback touchpads. I've owned a Surface Laptop 7 (Snapdragon) with one and a Lenovo Slim (Intel), and I hated both to the point where I purchased different laptops. It's not that they don't work most of the time; it's that they don't work 100% of the time, and there is no advantage from a user's perspective over a good mechanical trackpad like what's on a ThinkPad X1 or a Yoga 9i. I do not believe that I'll buy another haptic feedback touchpad laptop again in the near future.
    • Works fine here too. About this build, I don't like to download any kind of Windows, from any site except Microsoft. The mod might work, but I don't know what it's inside. Can contain malware, backdoors... Long time ago I've used something like this but reversed - it was 98se with the look and some functionality  of XP. Or, later XP with Vista look. But I made it myself. Not downloaded from obscure sites.
    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
