Download without folders?

Post by yuppicide »

Is there any way to do away with folders when downloading? I would like all files to go in one folder. like d:\down\usenet

As it is now let's say I download 25 tv show episodes. They're all in separate folders with nfo file, artwork, sample video, etc... blah blah.. I don't need all that other crap. It's a pain to grab just the video file I need and copy it over to the proper place.

Go to Config->Categories and read the instruction at the top.
Add an * to the end of the "default" category.

Yeah I don't get that at all, sorry.. I read the little help and also clicked the help button.

I just want everything in D:\down. Any file downloaded.. so I'll have one big folder of just video files, par files, rar files, nfo, whatever.

I just don't like them in their own directory:

d:down\pawn stars s01e05
d:down\pawn stars s01e06
d:down\pawn stars s01e07
d:down\pawn stars s01e08
d:down\pawn stars s01e09
etc.

Just take everything that would have went in those folders and go in d:\down

Please put d:\down* in path box of the "Default" category in Config->Categories and no folders will be created.

That sort of worked, but now I have a new issue. Would you mind if I PM you, because I didn't want to mention here the files I was downloading.. it's only TV shows like Shark Tank, but whatever.
