assassinmunky Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I have made a java-based web downloader that runs on the unraid server. All you need to install is the bubba-raid unraid configuration and the java jdk 1.5 and jboss. It's actually pretty cool if you download a lot from rapidshare. You just put your links in the dialoag box and hit download... your download will start on the server and will continue until it's finished. You can be at work/school, start your downloads and have then ready by the time your home. It's very convient... atleast for me. here is a screen shot, let me know if anyone is interested.

devastator Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 No screenshot included :-) What I usually do, is dump the rapidshare cookie from firefox and move it to my server. There I have a file called download.txt, which I parse like this: while read line; do wget --load-cookies /path/to/cookies -c $line done < download.txt Gr, Deva Link to comment
assassinmunky Posted December 30, 2008 Author Share Posted December 30, 2008 I used a command line xownloader for quite a bit, but I like the wb based approach much better. My unraid server is offline for the week for improvements so the screen shot will be back up after the weekend, sorry bout that. If you like what you let me know. I will be starting a google code site soon and Ill post the link. No screenshot included :-) What I usually do, is dump the rapidshare cookie from firefox and move it to my server.

NLS Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 that is great but how does it handle retries for non-premium accounts? (I use USDownloader in Windows and I let it retry until everything is finished - and yes it could "read" the graphic checks! which I think now rapidshare doesn't use anyway) Link to comment
assassinmunky Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 the intended audience is rapidshare premium account holders. I played around with window's based apps for non-premium accounts and always had trouble when downloading large amounts. If you have found a good non-premium account rapidshare downloader that can handle downloading of dvds/blu ray movies, please let me know and i will try to mimic the way that app works into my web-based downloader. How is USdownloader? ever had trouble downloading 10-20 gigs a day? Link to comment
NLS Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 No. It is very good. It even auto-updates - and doesn't handle only rapidshare but a hundred more such services. Of course those that need the "reading" of graphics symbols are ruled out in a linux based web application, as they use a complete OCR solution (hidden inside USDownloader that calls the dll).

assassinmunky Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 hmm, i will have to take a look at this... doesnt rapidshare only allow a certain number of downloads from the same ip for non-premium accounts? does the app spoof/proxy your ip? Link to comment
NLS Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 no nothing that tricky - rapishare for non-premium accounts just makes you wait a certain time between downloads - so it retries waiting it was possible to make your router reset via a script (cooperating with USDownloader) so if you have dynamic IP to get a new one and start immediately, but I never bothered (I prefer letting it wait all night to finish than re-login all the time) Link to comment
assassinmunky Posted January 20, 2009 Author Share Posted January 20, 2009 ahh... now i remember why i paid for a premium account thanks ill look into it though. Link to comment
