Hello there,

first great script. It work very well for small collections! But i have a problem.

My collection consists of 220 items. So the script triggers the maintenance mode of bandcamp. I think thats the way they are meeting too many requests in a small time frame.

So the question is: How do i download my entire collection or keep track of the already downloaded ones? I assume that you script isn't closing the successfull ones.

As an afterthought maybe it is possible to tell the script to wait a few minutes before it opens the new tabs?

Regards KlonAmy

Or do i alter the values as followed:

var rangeStart = 0; var rangeEnd = 10;

var rangeStart = 11; var rangeEnd = 21;

var rangeStart = 22; var rangeEnd = 31;

etc...

Yeah you can do it that way, 0-10 would download albums 1 to 9, so you would want the next set to start at 10. The script tries to handle maintenance mode by refreshing, so if you see a failure it will retry until it works. Sometimes this takes a while. I find doing 10 albums at a time seems to work pretty well. Does that answer your question? There's probably a more elegant way to download a subset, I'm open to suggestions

Thanks. That was exactly the answer i was looking for.
