Configurable multithreading #25

Please, provide manual threads count setup in settings.

inbasic commented 8 years ago

The number of threads is persistent. Just set it once while adding a job. As soon as the job is submitted, the extension remembers the number of all further jobs.

Note that it is not recommended to use more than 5 threads for a job.

Sorry, there's been a misunderstanding here. I am talking about automatic job adding (Firefox addon). When I select the download link Firefox "download with" window pop ups, there is no way to prepare TDM job at this point. Personally, I need configure job while downloading. Or it is not possible?

In the latest dev version, it is possible to adjust the number of threads before adding a new job, https://github.com/inbasic/turbo-download-manager/blob/master/builds/packed/firefox.xpi?raw=true screen shot 2016-01-13 at 16 30 18

It is still not possible at the moment. I have a plan to fix this though.
