Newpipe: Download Scheduler Feature

Created on 24 Aug 2020  路  20Comments  路  Source: TeamNewPipe/NewPipe

I think Download scheduler is the feature,that is missing in the app.

Almost every app nowadays have schedule download feature,if also included in this app,it would be a great and appreciating step.

This feature (Download Scheduler) will help almost everybody to save time and download stuff when they want.


This feature will help me to be fully interacted with awesome new pipe app,and if included i dont have to use other third party apps for this feature.

You haven't explained well why this would be useful. Could you provide more context? (you would already have done this if you had followed the template) I don't see why you/someone would want to postpone a download.

Sometimes i want to start download in night at any time that is why,this feature will be very useful....

You still haven't answered this question:

I don't see why you/someone would want to postpone a download.

What is the issue you're facing that makes you go "I wish I could schedule this download to happen 5 hours later because I'm facing so and so problem right now."?

When you have multiple downloads,you have postphone some downloads that is why i want this feature...

There is a Limit Download Queue feature for that, so that they only happen one by one.

Yeah, let's keep this in #4215

@mohsinanayat I'd still like to hear if that toggle solves your problem. It's in Download settings.

No

... can you elaborate, then?

I have said everything,now what is pending?

A reason why you want this feature. You don't want to schedule downloads just because you 'feel like it', right? You're facing some sort of problem because you don't have the ability to schedule. We want to know what that problem is.

So far you have said:

Sometimes i want to start download in night at any time

Why?

When you have multiple downloads,you have postphone some downloads

Why do you have to postpone them? I do multiple downloads but I don't need to postpone. Clearly, you're facing some problem that I am not. What is that problem?

Sometimes u forget to download it,so u will schedule it,that is the problem....

Ah. Got it. How about creating a playlist called 'To be downloaded' and adding all such videos there? Then you can keep track of what you have downloaded and what is pending. This way, you won't forget.

If anyone want to download a video at 1Am he don't has to wake up at 1Am he will schedule download and that's it,.....

That looks like a different problem, then. Why 1 AM? Do you have limited internet? Are there specific time slots in which you get good speed?

Yes,it is Jammu and Kashmir

Our internet speed is max 40Kbs...

This gift is given by our government of India...
That J&K should only be given 2g not 4g...

Yeah. Not even Jio (the National ISP of India) is allowed. 馃ぃ

You haven't explained well why this would be useful.

So for future reference, when Stypox asked for a reason ^,

Our internet speed is max 40Kbs...

This is the answer we were looking for. Now we know what problem this feature would solve.

Thanks for reopening this issue, this feature will help lot of users...
