Feature request: skip all

[Sciamano]

Hi,
what if the download window also had a "Skip all" button, so that subdownloader would skip to the following file if a sub is already present on the disk, without the need to press "Skip" every time?
Would that be possible?

Regards

Hi!

It should skip all subtitles in the same folder, for some tv serie season X and just download the missing subtitles, right ?

Thanks

Hi,
it should skip all subtitles for the same file, when one is already
present, and do this for all the files in a folder.

I hope to explain this better with the following example: in a folder
there are three video files, and the first two already have subtitles:

file1.avi
file1.srt
file2.avi
file2.srt
file3.avi

When subdownloader checks the folder, it now acts like this:

Video file file1.avi:
[ ] file1.srt (already downloaded)
[x] file1.eng.srt
[ ] file1.sub

Video File file2.avi:
[ ] file2.srt (already downloaded)
[x] file2.txt
[ ] file2.eng.sub

Video file file3.avi:
[x] file3.srt
[ ] file3.sub

As you can see, even though file1 and file2 altready have subtitles,
subdownloader selects additional subtitles for the same files! It
should not do so, imo.
Anyway, since I set subdownloader to rename the downloaded subtitles
with the same filename as the respective video file, for each subtitle
already downloaded subdownloader of course asks me if I want to Skip,
Replace, Replace All or Cancel. So I have to hit skip for each file
(and imagine when a folder has 200 video files, and you need only the
last one!), while a simple "Skip All" button would do the trick.

Ciao!

I've committed the feature "skip all" to our repository, if you want to test it, do a bzr checkout.

$ bzr branch lp:subdownloader
$ python run.py -d

Thanks

Hi Marco, thanks for letting me know.

I tested it and it has a problem: hitting "skip all" makes
subdownloader skip everything, including the download of subtitles
that are marked for download and that are not already present in the
directory.

Please let me know if you need any more information. I will be more
than glad to help.
