As in title is there, or will there be a way to change where all the anime are downloaded with "download all" feature ? :D

Hi. For downloads, there are 2 ways:

  1. Show a Save as dialog to the user for each file
  2. Automatically download and set the location.

For 2, there is no way to change the location completely (as far as I know). For example, say your default download location (as per your Chrome settings) is D:\Downloads and say you are downloading the anime Gintama, at best what can be done is change D:\Downloads\9anime Companion\ to D:\Downloads\Gintama or something similar. Its not possible to say change it to C:\Gintama.

For 1, it is possible, but while downloading a lot of episodes (think 50+), you will end up with 50 Save as dialog boxes. And that wont be a pretty sight 😄

Do let me know if my explanation was not clear.

when i try batch downloading it gives random names to episode..is there any way they can be downloaded having number of that episode

@sgr1997 I am guessing this happens when you use external method on episodes from RapidVideo. If that's the case, then use the browser method. IDM doesn't seem to recognize the episode metadata from the URL in case of RapidVideo links (which are direct links).
