The most pressing matters right now are to fix the missing information (speed, time left) in the UI, and to add global controls to modify the number of download threads and other parameters using an options menu.Īll in all though this is something that is worth keeping an eye on to see how it develops. It seems to work well already especially when it comes to large downloads and if that is your main priority, may be worth testing it on your system. The add-on is clearly a work in progress. Turbo Download Manager offers no options page currently to modify the number of threads or other parameters for all downloads initiated through Firefox's save dialog.
There you find options to change the number of available threads, define the thread timeout and to set download links and referring pages. This way file fetching would be much faster and if one pipeline breaks, it is possible to resume the download.While it displays the download progress in percent and a progress bar, it is not listing speed and time left information currently even though those are listed in the interface.Įach download can be paused or stopped using the controls displayed on the right, and there is a search available to filter results which may be useful if you run lots of downloads in Firefox throughout the day.ĭownloads can be run directly from the interface as well without going through Firefox's save dialog first. Instead of opening just one pipline to download files, Turbo Download Manager opens several pipelines and breaks the actual file into multiple segments. Extension-able and can be accessed from other applications Allows downloading from multiple sourcesĤ. Allows you to continue broken downloads by introducing fresh linksģ. Increases downloading speed (attainable speed depends on the number of segments and your network capability)Ģ. This project aims to bring a userfriendly yet reliable downloader to fill the gap.ġ. Download managers for desktop enviroments are very common but there doesnt seem to be a decent download manager for mobile platform. It can be used to download files faster and more reliable. Turbo download manager aims to provide a solid download manager for non-stable INTERNET connections.
