Summary0003587: Podcasts: Configure # of simultaneous downloads
DescriptionAs suggested in http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20688, we should support a configuration of # of simultaneous download from Podcast servers. Due to strings freeze of MM 3.0 we probably won't be able to add it at this moment, but we should consider this...

Jiri,
Is it possible that we can use some sort of multi threading modification I for example use in Last.fm scrobbler where plugin opens self closing thread on submission and free MM thread from watching over download thread?

String: Number of concurrent downloads: ___

It can be included on Options > Podcasts

(but Options > 'Podcasts' can be changed to Options > 'Podcasts' / 'Downloads'

Ludek, assigning to you in case you think that we should include the string for 4.0 (vis a vis both podcasts and download functionality).

Maybe you'll want to add the string and then set priority to 'high'.

Since it's easy to implement (this variable is already internally in MM), let's do it now.

I just wonder, since many servers might limit max.# of connections per IP, would it make sense to also add a limit per server? Or automatically retry downloads failed with 'timeout' error, when others from the same server worked fine?

Yes, we internally limits 4 of simultaneous downloads at once.
So it is just about UI adding, but currenly we have "Default download location" option under Options > General

So I suppose we should move it to Options > Podcasts/Downloads
or rather Options > Downloads/Podcasts
and create new group box that would be at top and would include the "Default Download Location" and "Number of concurrent downloads"
