Downloads Issue #400

Open tnvulcan opened 4 months ago

tnvulcan commented 4 months ago

After latest update, a prompt to set a download location is shown to user. The prompt doesn't mention that previous downloads may be inaccessible, but the prompt for changing the location in the UI Settings menu does. The folders of previous downloads have been moved/copied to the new download location, but the downloaded contents are not. I can no longer access my previous downloads, as they are user data that is in the root directory, I do not have a backup of my settings before the update, and I don't think forcing a rollback to 3.0.0 would be safe. I would just clear the user data and redownload everything, but I am currently in a country with limited access to high bandwidth connectivity. I'm hard capped at 256 kb/s. Anyway for you to add a reset for the directory or the ability for the app to read both directories? I appreciate all the work you have done on this project, this app has been a lifesaver in a low bandwidth environment. Sorry for any inconvenience.

when prompted to set a downloads directory, did you choose the directory from the previous app version?

rebelonion commented 4 months ago

can you explain step by step what you did?

no, never set one previously. i dont use external storage. was using whatever was set by default.

After installing latest version, I attempted an anime download and was prompted to set a downloads folder and then downloaded the new downloads add-on. Went into offline mode to check on my downloads, which show up, but they all are at 0 bytes and attempting to load an episode results in a source exception error.

rebelonion commented 4 months ago

the showing 0 bytes is expected, but the videos are still downloaded. Are you in the discord server or telegram? I can't send a apks here and it would be easier to solve there.
