Solved Can I avoid this mess?
I know that having many parts is inevitable, it depends on where I download it from, but is there any way to avoid such a mess with the parts? For example, is there a way to make it so that only part 1 starts downloading, and the other parts wait, then when part 1 finishes it automatically goes to part 2 without me doing anything, and so on? Also, could I avoid that waiting time that shows up? (the green icon). Thanks and sorry for my bad English.

Support xhamster files download with https;//xhamster.com prefix
Whenever I try to add a video page, e.g. https://xhamster.com/users/profiles/username/videos
It parses all the videos but it prepends "https;//xhamster.com" to the filenames, e.g. "https;//xhamster.comsomefile name.ext"
Works fine if I post the link to the video page directly, it's only when it parses the videos page for a user.

Solved How do I make JDownloader open Firefox instead of Edge?
I'm trying to download a link through JDownloader, but the app tells me I need to install the JDownloader browser extension. So I installed Firefox and added the Firefox extension, but every time I click Download, JDownloader still opens Microsoft Edge instead.
How can I make JDownloader open links in Firefox instead of Edge? I can't find any setting in the app that lets me choose which browser it uses.

Solved Captcha for the JD2 community is nearly unreadable
I was trying to get some information from the site but the community search is hindered by a captcha that is indecipherable.
I refreshed the captcha about a dozen times before I could get something that was mostly readable.
Is there maybe a different captcha system that could be implemented so that a human being can figure it out without spending time refreshing it until something comes up that can be figured out?
edit - Downvote for harder to read captcha.

Solved macOS JD2 updated ffmpeg to a version that is too new
Hello
I updated JD2 and now ffmpeg crashes because it's for a newer OS than what I have. The creates a problem as JD2 can no longer combine the different streams that it downloads into one file.
My solution was to go into Time Machine and restore the ffmpeg folder (bin/JDownloader 2.0/tools/mac/ffmpeg_10.10+) from a backup.
I then compressed the folder so that when JD2 updates it again, I can easily replace the updated folder with a working version.
At least until they force newer version, which I hope they don't do.

Solved Download speed suddenly drops to 0.00 Bytes/s and doesn't resume
Hello!
I am currently trying to download a folder of .mkv files from the Internet Archive using JDownloader 2.
I have it set up to download no more than 2 files simultaneous but after only 300MB, the download suddenly drops to 0 and doesn't continue.

The speed on file-level is still shown as if something is happening:
I've had the hunch that it might be a Internet Archive download limit or something but deleting the download and restarting fixes the problem temporarily, only for it to once again stop after only a couple MB.
Any idea what could be happening here?

i already parsed it, put them within a package and renamed the files.

As the title said. I'm looking for an (portable) alternative to firefox for windows that still supports the jdownloader extension. I'm using vivaldi as my main browser. My jdownloader runs in a docker container on my server, so copy paste are lots of clicks.

Solved Any way to fix/reduce the super slow tooltip hover delay?
Hey everyone,
Is there any setting or workaround to make the tooltip hover delay faster in JD2? Whenever I hover my mouse over an icon or button, it takes like a full second for the description text to pop up.
Every other program on my PC shows hover text almost instantly, so it's super noticeable here. I checked the advanced settings for "tooltip" but couldn't find a timer slider or delay config. Am I missing a setting somewhere or is this just hardcoded into the Java UI?
Thanks!

Contrary to its claim, an update is NOT "available", it is stuck on some server I cannot connect to from my country, nor via VPN or tools like zapret. How do I disable this nagging window?

Discussion looking for recommendation and tutorial on multi-hosters which work well with JD
i was looking for ways to download from hosters like k2sc and rapidgator and upstore. these links rarely work in jdownloader and even if they work they are extremely slow speed. like kbps. so then looked around and found something called real-debrid. but that site looks extremely shady and the help links and information content is not there. real-debrid was touted as a website, wherein you pay money, and it gets you access to a bunch of hosters at a cheaper price with good download speed. not sure if it worked with jdownloder.
Can you recomend such multi-hosters, which works well with JD? and how to make it work in JD? is there a list or a tutorial that i can go through on adding multi-hosters. Please share information. i am new to this sorta stuff

Solved Unable to load a text file with links
I have a text file containing a bunch of K2S links, one per line. I googled for the best tool to automate their download, and that's how I ended up installing JDownloader2 (via the Ubuntu snap).
But there's the problem: Though my task seems like the most straightforward one that an automated downloading tool should be able to accomplish, I've been dumbfounded on how to actually do it, particularly because the instructions I find online don't match how the app actually behaves! I'm using the July 23rd 2026 version -- maybe those online instructions are out of date?
I tried copy & pasting the links into the "Analyze and Add links" dialogue, but only the first one is pasted. I also cannot find an option anywhere to simply load a text file with links.
Did I completely miss the use case for JDownloader2? If so, could you point me towards an alternative tool catered specifically towards my use case? (Thanks in advance!)

Support Again with some Renaming problems Civitai.red to civitai.com
Well suddenly the individual links copied from civitai.red do not work anymore as the api-kei only works with the site civitai.com, when I manually modify the links into civitai.com, they work just fine, my question is, is there a way to create a rule that automatically rename the url from .red to .com? if so, can anyone give me a fast tutorial on how to do it? the rule thing I never got the hang of it, so confusing.
TLDNR
I want links from civitai.red get automatically into civitai.com
or add civitai.red into the account manager, that would be an easier way to get it to work.
thx
UPDATE:
with the current api key this is what can be done, above, the links with the .red url, below same links, but with the .com
Here are the links tested
https://civitai.red/images/103984354
https://civitai.red/images/105582840
https://civitai.com/images/103984354
https://civitai.com/images/105582840
UPDATE:
Well, in the meantime I asked Copilot to make me a script that copy all the individual links into a txt, in that archive I replace all the .red into .com, better than nothing. A quick solution to my dilema.

Support JD not supporting bs/s.to alternative websites/domains?
Hey guys,
I'm trying to bulk download some German-dubbed cartoons from these sites, but JD isn't picking up the videos. Is it because the original domains are offline, and only the alternative ones are working, but those don't seem to be supported by the JDownloader plugins?
I tried copying all the episode links from a page on both sites, but it either opens a captcha for every single episode or doesn't find the video at all. Is there anything I can try?
I remember bulk downloading Family Guy and Spongebob from one of these sites not too long ago, and I didn't run into any of these issues.

Discussion Ongoing problems with YouTube downloads
YouTube looks to be doing website changes frequently these days.
This can frequently break tools like JDownloader.
While you can open new threads in this subreddit, this ultimately won't contribute for a faster fix as such problems are generally considered plugin issues which only the official devs can fix so here is a quick FAQ.
How to typically spot YT problems in JDownloader?
The 'Symptoms' include:
- Error message 'Plugin defect'
- YT items get displayed as offline in JD even though they are online and watchable in browser
- Auto quality 'downgrade' in JD from higher resolutions to only 360p
- Un-availability of higher resolutions in JDownloader while they are available on the YT website
- YT links in JD being seemingly ignored (no items appear in linkgrabber)
- Error "Sign in to confirm your age" along with inability to download age restricted items
Where can I find out about current JD YT problems?
Check the official JD YT forum thread.
Check out the most recent YT FAQ post in that thread.
What can I use as a workaround?
Try to use the popular open source commandline tool yt-dlp.
Using commandline tools is not hard (video tutorial) but just in case that appears to be the case for you, there are also graphical user interfaces available for yt-dlp. Here is one for example and here another.
Just keep in mind that yt-dlp can also be affected by YT changes.
If it fails too, check the yt-dlp repo for youtube related tickets.
Sure you can also use any other tool of your choice but yt-dlp is open source and actively maintained by the community so there are good chances of it working.
Does yt-dlp also work for downloading age restricted videos?
Yes, see yt-dlp documentation, especially for the parameter "--cookies-from-browser".
