Newpipe: Download all/multiple items at once in channel/playlist/feed

Created on 4 Jun 2019  路  4Comments  路  Source: TeamNewPipe/NewPipe

If a user wants to download all videos from a particular channel then he/she need to open each and every video and click on download. It is very time-consuming task.
We can add a "Download All" feature to download all videos from the channel. This will save users time.

I believe something like this may have been mentioned before but was decided against, since if the channel has a thousand videos it is a pointless feature.

So we can have some limit. Example if there are less than 40 videos in a channel then we can show "Download All" button else we can hide it.

I agree with @gkeegan and will not implement this.
Downloading a complete channel seems quite useless for me. This is be a feature which would only be used by a small group of users.
But there is already some work on downloading playlists. For now, I'd suggest, to
1) Open a channel and hit: play all .
2) Go to the playqueue view
3) convert the current queue to a playlist
4) wait until a #2018 is merged
5) download the playlist.

Nevertheless, if someone is interested in implementing this:
This option can be put into the overflow menu. The videos in a channel are more or less a playlist. Implementing this after #2018 is merged should be quite easy.
