Hi,

I might be missing something simple, but I am trying to download the video on the following youtube page and for all the videos shown under the suggestion column.

While I only want the FLVs, I tried just doing the default setting but still am not getting the FLVs. Can you provide some assistance?

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Oleg,

Thank you. That worked great. I had to set level = 1 to get all the FLVs linked in the suggested column though.


And the product looks great. I haven't gone through it in detail yet. But the resource monitor is really nice. And the file tab looks great too. I could see myself using that regularly.


And if you're taking suggestions, it would be great if on the Map tab there could be sortable columns like in an explorer window. I am often looking for files based size or name. It would make it much easier to find them when there is a complex directory structure. It's not a big deal since I can always jump over to explorer, but it would be nice to save a few steps.

Thanks again, great work,
Jeff

Thank you for kind words!

Regarding the columns - can you tell me what exact information you would like to have there? And how you would typically use them?

I have a hint for you - right-click a folder or file in the Map with Ctrl key pressed to get the standard Explorer menu. You may easily open files, browse folders this way.

Oleg.

Hi Oleg.

You solved it. I was thinking of something like the details view in windows explorer. But I did not know about the ctrl tip you mentioned. Now that I know that, I really don't need sort columns anymore. That addresses the need since I can open the folder, launch my virus scan, open FileSearchEX to search, burn a CD, etc. without launching another program first. That's exactly what I was hoping for.

99% of the time, I would open explorer and navigate to the download folder just so I could use the windows search function, and then sort function, so I could clean up the results.

The sort fields I use most are file-name and file-size. File-name because I know the name but not the folder it resides in. And file-size because of cases like the one in my original question where files are downloaded but may not have the expected extension. A size sort allows me to group them all so I can copy and /or rename them.

Thanks again for the great product and support,
