I visit a forum and this forum allows people post pics that are uploaded on other sites. ie hostwhore, imageshack etc.

The threads in the forum only show a smaller version of pic and you have click on the small version which takes you to the image sharing site ( hostwhore etc ).

When I use this program i only get the small version rather than the larger version stored on hostwhore

Hi,

thank you for your question. I hope you are using the program correctly. Please refere to the documentation or forums posts for that.
In case the page is difficult to download I suggest you use the 'Create list' option described in the help file:
http://www.picturedownloader.net/help.php#create

It also help to play around with hte options to see the results.

Best regards,

Miha.

  Picture Downloader won't do it, but...    hits: 1621
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
Hello from Sunny Arizona!

In playing with the Picture Downloader, I see that there's no facility for loading the images automatically (ie, wait 5 mins, then 'Save Pictures' again). The idea is that I have a web cam that I'd like to save pics from on an automatic basis. That way, I can quickly skim through an entire day's worth in sort of a mini-movie.

Since Picture Downloader doesn't do it, do any of your other programs have this ability?
Anyone have any other suggestions?

I've uploaded a test web page so that anyone wanting to experiment can do so & then get back to me. Feel free to go to members.aol.com/sellen/dawn.htm .
Once this problem is solved, I'll just plug in the url & password for my personal webcam, but I figured this was a good way to start.

Thanks for any help y'all can supply!

Scott

Hi!

I think you are right, Mihov Picture Downloader can't do this. In fact you would need a program that would download a page (a photo) every 5 minutes and save it to your disk, right? I don't know sucha program, but it should exist somewhere... Did you google for it?

Have fun,

Miha.

PD could do it using a macro.

I use Macro express for some other automated tasks, u have to purchase it tho. I am sure there are some programs that would work just as well.

Hi!

In fact this is the picture you want to download (example): http://images.shareapic.net/fullsize4/012529136.jpg

So I suggest you try to create a list (Create List) where you list all the images with different numbers. I think this should work without any problems.

Good luck!

Miha.

  url filtering and url series    hits: 977

Was just wondering if the following two
features are available :

A) A way to filter the URL from the list that is
displayed in the big list box in the Download
zone....so that i can for example set a filter to
eliminate the links that come from
adsense.com etc....

B) a mechanism to automatically extract links
from a series of pages....like
http://www.abcd.com/imageseriespages/pag
eforum.php?pageid=01
http://www.abcd.com/imageseriespages/pag
eforum.php?pageid=02
http://www.abcd.com/imageseriespages/pag
eforum.php?pageid=03
the series of 01 to 03 could it be automated
just like the feature of create list for direct
image links ?

Hi!

Thank you for your questions! Actually you've posted two good questions and quite valid; I agree I should have thought of that... But I haven't.

Option A is not available. I will try to remember it for the next versions.
Option B is not available, however... Maybe you can try using 'Create list' from Direct download, save the list to file, and then open it in 'List download'? I think this would go without a problem.

Thank you for great suggestions and I hope option B works for you!

Have fun,

Miha.

Again, Host found, Connected Successfully, Connection Closed, --Page loaded, Connection Closed is what i see in the history. It loads the link to all the photos, but won't save any. If I select them all and hit save, it just gets stuck on downloading.

This program has usually worked fine for me (and on this same website). I've downloaded close to 3500 photos with it. The last few days though, it has been doing this. I don't think anything has changed in my network either. Today, it happened to download about 90 pics but won't grab anything else from the same site, and even the same post, just a different page. It is a free site, and requires no name/password. Please let me know what I can do to fix this. Thanks!

Hi!

Are you sure the layout of the pages haven't changed since you last tried? Do the pages that you already downloaded still work or also not?
If you want me to investigate please send me the link that doesn't work any more so I'll try to find a reason why.

Have fun,

Miha.

I think the problem with this site is the ? sign in the URL. I think Picture Downloader still has problems with such URLs.


> And one more question:

Yes! After you install the program on your PC, just go to the folder where you have installed it and then copy all the files from hard disk to flash card. When you will run it from the flash card, the program will run slower, but it will work.

Best regards,

Miha.

  how can I complete this task    hits: 2571

Hi,

I need to download a bunch of images, around 10k of them, and to rename each one of them to a pre determined name. (lets say I want to download image1.jpg and save it as regergh543.jpg for example)

I have the URL's of the images, the path is different, but each image is named the same.

I tried uploading a simple HTML file with ALL the images, and to 'save as' in order to get all the images; the first 40~ images are saved 1-40, and then random names start to appear...

my question is: can this tool handle such a task, and if so, how????

thanks!!

Hi!

Thanks for your post and your interesting question. I'm not sure, why those funny things would start to happen after No.40, I see no good reason.
If you can send me a link to your HTML file with all the links, that would be great so I could test it on my computer.

Thank you,

Miha.

Hello Miha,

It would be nice if, on the Download Zone Tab in the text box to the right with the drop-down menu where the type/s of files to be downloaded is located, there would be an option to select *.wmv. Or maybe even have an empty selection option so that the appropriate extension could be typed in by the user. Or the best of both worlds would be to have a *.wmv selection AND a blank selection. :-)

Regards and thanks for the terrific program! :-)

Hi!

Thank you for your suggestion. I remember I was looking for a solution to add more file extensions, but I don't remembered if I found it :) I will add *.wmv to the next version.
I have just noted that I haven't released a new version for more than two years... Uff, time flies by faaast!

Just select the text and press 'del' on your keyboard.

Well, the default URL is there just to show the user an example how it is used... Never mind if you see it there. If you don't use the feature it's irrelevant.


> My delete history button does not work.

'Clear history' button should work... It might not work if you have no writing/deleting rights for the folder where the program is installed. But in that case I guess that the history wouldn't be saved as well...
Note that default vales won't get deleted, maybe that bothers you?

Best regards,

Miha.

hi

firstly thanks for the great program, it has saved me loads of time.

This is a just a small suggestion, hows about an option in the filter box to download "all images", "all videos", "all images & video" and in setup allow a editable list of these image / video extensions, just in case a new extension comes out.

thanks for reading

Hi,

Hi,
Some servers return 300 instead of 404 on a missing file.

PD chokes on HTTP 300, where the server returns a list of similar name files instead of http 404.

You must manually press Stop to get it to proceed.

Can you have it automatically skip a 300

This is with v. 1.3

  List download w/o auto prefix    hits: 2695

Reply      Monitor
Hi,

Is it possible to save images from the 'List download' zone without having a number automatically prefixed? I find the auto-prefix extremely annoying myself because if downloading a numbered series from multiple lists the images end up mixed out of order.

This program would be perfect for me if I could just switch off the automatic prefixing when saving from a list!

Hmm, this is not possible... If you list download, then you have files from multiple servers. The file names could be the same from all the servers and the files would get overwritten. That is why the prefix is added...

An option would be to add server/folder name to the file name or to create folders on hard drive for each item on the list.

Which one do you prefer, do you have any better ideas?

Have fun,

Miha.

The question was how to download images from Image Garden http://www.imagegarden.net

Hmm, I'm not sure... They use some sort of user session identification. The image links creates itself dynamically to something like http://www.imagegarden.net/image_c.php?imagesession=fa3032821ecab8a083579bcc200bd9cf&cataid=2&albumid=101&imageid=6&type=jpeg

So I guess you can create a link like this by yourself:
- in your browser click on one image
- click View image - so that you see only an image without any texts or links
- then copy the link from the URL bar)

Use this URL with Picture Downloaders feature Create List, keep the session numbers but change the imageid (see the link for this parameter) and later albumid. I think it can be done and I hope you will succeed.

Best regards,

Miha.

The change of your ISP should have no effect.

Did you maybe resize the program to a size that you can't see it?
Did you maybe move the program window off the screen so you can't see it?
Did you change the screen resolution so the program window doesn't fit in the screen any more?

I suggest you check these things...

Hi again!

The reason you can't download the pictures is not only in ?url parameter, there's more... The page free6.com dowsn't really link to the porn sites you want to download pictures from - it links to itself, and then shows a little of its own site (free6) and a large porn site that the real link is. You can see the small part on top of the screen with the rating stuff, all other content is just a frame. And Mihov Picture Downloader doesn't support frames.

So, what can be done so that you won't be that sad? My advice would be that you manually get the links to the 'real' sites you want - that is everything in a link after the ?url parameter. You can save all these links to a text file, one link per line. You can then open this file in the program (list download) and all the pictures will be downloaded automatically. A little more work, but it can be done.

I hope you will succeed and won't be so sad anymore :)

Oh, there is another hint - if you don't need specially free6 then you can use another porn provider that supports downloading with MPD, for example http://www.thehun.com/ - just go to archive and everything will be yours if you use List download in Mihov Picture downloader!

Good luck,

Miha.

This is because you are trying to download the images, that are embedded into web pages. Mihov Picture Downloader doesn't do that.

However, you can still use it to download all the pictures from that gallery. Find out what is the name of the photos. In your example it is http://hosted.ifw.es/galerias/07/01/8040501/1.jpg
Now use the Lists -> Create List function and create a list with all the images in it. This way you'll be able to download all the pictures at once. On how to use the 'Create List' see program help.

Miha.

Hi!

Have you tried with the
1) Lists, Create list
If the numbers of the pictures are in order, you can do this very easily, see help file: http://www.picturedownloader.net/help.php
2) Lists, Open list
Select all the links in the forum and paste them to a text file. Save it, then open it in Picture Downloader.

Hope this helps!

Miha.

The first option won't work, as the pictures are not in order. I tried the second option with the following test list:
****begin***

http://img121.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=40804_Historic_Screen_002_123_410lo.jpg
***end***

I loaded this list using the 'load list from file' button on the list download tab.
This didn't work, it gave the following log in MPD:

I think you should add links like the last two links... Then it would work.
Do you have links like this available or are they structured only as in the first example? Then you have a problem and can't use Mihov Picture Downloader. It doesn't work on redirects, sorry.

Best regards,

Miha.

P.S.: Thank you for using the forum instead of e-mail! I hope someone will find your problem interesting enough and will look into it a little deeper than my time allows me :)

Hi!

Which operating system a re you using? You should have to be logged as a user that has rights to change files in the program folder where the history file is saved.
You can securely delete all history by deleting the file dl.ini in your program folder.

Hi again!

Maybe your search is configured NOT to search in program folders. I'm pretty sure the file dl.ini is there, because this is the place where the history is stored. Try browsing through your local folders like this:
c:\
Program Files
Mihov Picture Downloader

Note that 'Program Files' is sometimes sort of hidden from windows users and Explorer won't show you the files right away. Usually you have to click the 'Show files and folders' link in the left pane.

I hope this helps! It should, anyway...

Good luck,

Miha.

Are you using the latest version (1.4)?
Another thing that comes to mind is that you don't have the program installed in the default folder. You have to double check where the program is installed and where you run it from and I'm pretty sure there has to be dl.ini. If you see history, then this file has to exist in the program folder. Otherwise there is no way that you see history URLs...

Miha.

The program is installed in Program Files. There are a number of files in the "Mihov Picture Downloader" folder, but the dl.ini file is not there. I have run a complete search of my C drive and the file is not found. I do not know is the history urls are displayed. The only urls that are displayed are in the large center box, as the images are downloaded.

In this case I think the program does not store history information on your machine - and that is also why you can't clear history - because the file is not there.

It must be storing some history. I uninstalled and then reinstalled. After doing this it still shows the total number of downloads and how long I have been using the program.

Hi, I ran into another interesting problem again. To start with, the URL of the site is http://www.mmlala.com/gallery/2872/.
The URL of the picture in this site is http://www.mmlala.com/gallery/2872/1.jpg. Hwr, if I type in this URL, it points to a different page. I have to type in http://www.mmlala.com/gallery/2872/1/ to display this picture correctly. So I generate the list from http://www.mmlala.com/gallery/2872/1/ to http://www.mmlala.com/gallery/2872/29/ (there are 29 pictures). The pictures show correctly when I 'Test selected link in Browser'. However, when I go back to the main page of the downloader and press 'Save pictures', it does not work, whether I check the 'download embedded images' or not. Appreciate if you could help. Thanks.

Hi!

Yes, this page is interesting... It has thumbnails that point to a HTML that points to a JPG. The images are not in any numbered order that would be easily decodable.

This is what I would do:
I would start the program, enter the URL http://www.6to23.com/pic/xz/4008/ in the address bar, click Download embedded images, click Load page. When th elist would load I would click Lists... -> Save list to text file and would save it somewhere on the hard disk. Then I would open this file in notepad and replaca all 'small' with 'img'. If you noted they use the same name for thumbnails as for the original image, but in different folders. So the small embeded image at http://www.6to23.com/pic/small/200604/20060412120005_44.jpg
would become http://www.6to23.com/pic/img/200604/20060412120005_44.jpg
Then I would save the file in Notepad back and open this file in th eprogram with Lists... -> Load from text file, click Save pictures and the files would soon be with you :)

Does it work?

Have fun,

Miha.

On version 3 and earlier I could type in a hard drive path (using invalid characters, especially ""; i.e. c:imagespicturers) in the spot above the Save Pictures button and as long as the path existed, it would save the pictures in that directory. I just got version 4 and am trying to find my old version. It's tiresome and inconvenient to change the setting in the settings window all the time. Is this going to be a permanent "feature"? Why all of a sudden are there invalid characters?

OK, I just did what I should have done in the first place and that is to do a search here for answers for my question before posting and being redundant.
What I think might be wrong is that some sites have somehow got it fixed so that images cannot be downloaded like this. I'm sure that they do it on purpose so that their images aren't 'stolen'. Make sense?
(It just seems to happen too much to sites that have links to links to images.)

Hi,
I am having a problem with the program and not being able to stay connected to a site. In the box in the righthand bottom corner I first get "Host found. Connected successfuly." , but then immediatley I get "Connection closed."
I have tried several times and still get the same.
What is going on. Does anyone know why this happens?
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Janet

When does this happen? What do you click before that?

Usually this happens because the URL you have provided is wrong. This means that the program was not able to find any images on the site you're searching.

First, i would like to thank you for making such a great program so accessible.
I do have a question, however; I would like to download the pictures from this page: http://www.rubylane.com/shops/armagh/ilist/,page=2,ss=postcard.html, but have been unable to. The images that I want are linked from this page to another page, then the image on that page is linked to another page that has the enlarged image.( I do hope this makes sense).
All that I have been able to download from this page is a few of the images of the interface. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank You!
Janet

Thank you for your compliments!

I examined the page and it is not that difficult to get th epictures from it. First, browse to the page wherre the image is included (not the zoom version). Then examine what is the name of the file (picture). It is something like this:
http://pics.rubylane.com/graphics/shops/armagh/6040.1L.jpg
Then try to change the number in the image name, to see if the images are is some order. For example try:
http://pics.rubylane.com/graphics/shops/armagh/6041.1L.jpg
And a new image appears!

Now you have all you need - an URL with picture and a sequence. Start Create List -> Custom List and play with it a little. Soon all your images will be saved to your computer.

Since this is a shop make sure that their images are not copy protected before downloading them!

Best regards,

Miha.

I've got a problem that someone else addressed earlier, namely that in trying to download I get the: host found; connected successfully; connection closed reading, all in quick succession. This IS from a pay site (the program works GREAT with free sites) but I've entered the username and password in Settings and thats still what I get. The difference between me and the previous user with the same problem is that its NOT my firewall thats interfering. Any suggestions?

Actually yes. There is a possibility that the program can not find any links to pictures. Are you sure the links point directly to pictures and not to pages with pictures?
It would be great if you can save one of the pages (as html) and send it to my e-mail so I can see what is wrong.
It is also possible that the site doesn't allow mass downloading and the program can not trick it...

Looking forward to your mail,

Hi.
multiple times i dll. such a html-file and looked at the code.
it is natable that a reference to a file (ie. .jpg/
.mpg etc) will look something like this:
<th><a href=pic01.jpg><img SRC=./t/pic01th.jpg border=0 width=80 height=120></a></th>
maybe the the program doesnt look at references that havent been put between " "
like the example... or the as in this example the the whole "http://bla/blah/" that comes before the pic01.jpg has been cut and
mihov pic dll. doesnt take the url given in the
search main into memory and add it in fornt of the pic01.jpg..?

regards on such a great program and effort!

The program looks for the quotes, but I think this forward/backward folders like /../images make some problems also. I'll have to look in the code and try to take everything into account. Relying on html standards isn't such a good idea in this case, I guess...

yes, i think this can be very true what both of you said. i always knew somehow MPD. searches for the quotes, but when it cannot find a full adress leading to the picture, it errors.
its very smart how the html programmers implemented such a mislead.
You could try and take into account such
'broken links' and try to cut/paste the url in adresline infront of the adress between quotes in the html.
that doesnt always work, but its at least a try..
Great program ! Maybe people should start donating something they could miss to keep up your efforts! you benefit, they benefit.
why didnt i think of create such program?

This always happens when there is only one picture on each .htm(l) in the list. Is there a way I can fix this?

Hi!

This is normal. The program looks for links to the pictures, not pictures. So in this case the program is useless.
Another case would be if the pictures were named in some order, e.g. pic1.jpg, pic2.jpg,... Then you could use 'Create List' function.

Have fun,

Miha.

Say you are trying to d/l .mpg or .avi.
You paste the url, set the type to .mpg and hit load page. Nothing happens and connection closes.

All you need to do is switch the type mpg-avi or vice-versa and load page again. If you get another connection closed switch the file type again or just hit load page again. The page will load eventually.

If you look at the downloaded files with a text editor (notepad), you will see plain HTML text and not JPG 'garbage'. This means that the server, instead of serving JPG, served HTML. With a little imagination (or knowledge of HTML) you car read the file in Noteoad and see what the error was and why did the server serve HTML.

Once you have the reason, you are closer to fixing the URL and getting the images.
However, there is another option. It is possible that the server is so advanced that it recognized Mihov Picture Downloader and disables images for it. In that case you can't really download the pictures from that site, sorry...

  Coding not recognized?    hits: 3174
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
Hi Miha,

This is a great little program, and very handy.

I have run into a problem and don't see it addressed here (but maybe I missed it - if so, sorry)

At the site:

http://mirror.applefanatic.com/anniesrichards/gallery-harisu.htm

there are 21 pix but the PD doesn't recognize any of them.

I believe that is because of the html coding of the pix, which is, eg,

<img border="2" src="profiles/harisu-bio.jpg" align="left" width="275" height="243">

I don't know much about html but most images are in the form

<img src="........">

aren't they?

I'm not sure why the "border=" thing is put in there but it makes the pix invisible to PD.

Is there a way to deal with this?

Thanks for your help!

Hi!

Thanks for your message but sorry for my late reply... I have been busy with fighting spam on this forum... Now I think I have won (for now).

About your site and the problem with the images: You have already done all the research and I can only tell you, that you are correct. The reason why the program doesn't find the images is because the images are embedded with <img border... And the program ignores that :(
At the time I can give you no workarround, and I also can't promise that I will fix this. For fixing this I would have to change the architecture of the program a lot (to better, of course), and I am not really in a position to do that right now with me being always short on time. Sorry!

I hope there will be not many sites like this, grrrrr!

Hey!

This was not supposed to happen. I can think of two reasons why this is happening:
1. The page where you are downloading images from has changed some settings and that was in about the same time when you have updated the program.
-->Try to find out another way for downloading images.

2. You have the 'Download embedded images (not with links)' check box checked (at download zone). -->Try to uncheck it and try again.

Actually, there could be another reason:
3. Your firewall or Windows security settings have changed. The program now doesn't have the rights to connect to the internet.
--> Check security settings and make sure the program can connect to the internet successfully (for example try the demo site).

If nothing of this helps, then it is possible that there is a bug in the new version that prevents the site from being downloaded. In that case I ask you for more details about the page you are downloading from.

Older versions? They are not published on my sites because I don't offer support for them. You can only get the latest version all the time. The only way to get it is to order the Miha's utilities CD - on it there are all older versions, all current versions, and also some not released versions of all my programs. The CD is not free, take a look at http://www.mihov.com/eng/ordercdnow.html

Best regards,

Miha.

Hi!

In this new version that alo you are using the forbidden characters are changed to underscore. In your case, the questionmark has been changed. I think in your case the file was downloaded and saved to file successfully - the text you saw was just for your information that the file name has changed.

If I', wrong please tell me in more detail what happened.

This index is built so that the links don't go to th eimages, instead they link to another html file that includes an image. And Mihov Picture Downloader doesn't download from such sites.
However, I noticed that the images have a common file name - it only changes in the numbers. In that case you should use the Lists->Create List function of the program. You can read more about this in the help file or in online help: http://www.picturedownloader.net/help.php#create

  Mihov Picture Downloader - new version 1.4    hits: 6077
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
I am happy to tell you that a new version of Mihov Picture Downloader has been released (1.4) and that it is better then ever before. You can download it from the program website http://www.picturedownloader.net/
If you would rather have the program delivered to you on CD by air mail you can purchase the CD with all the latest and not released versions of other programs at http://www.picturedownloader.net/ordercd.php

So, what's new in this version? A lot! If I outline only the most important:
- option to download images that are embedded into a web page
- if a web file name contains a forbidden character (/:*?:<>) then the program will replace it with the underscore _
- if a file name is not valid the program will skip it and will not show a message and will not stop downloading
- if the program finds a file name with the same name it will not overwrite it; instead it will add numbers to the name
- if empty files are downloaded the program deletes them
- the program can delete all files smaller than certain size in bytes (user can input the size)
- engine for recognizing links is rebuilt so the program is able to recognize more link types (with single and double quotes, no quotes, spaces,...)
- ability to paste a list of links to the list on List download tab
- ability to save the list of links to text file on List download tab
- log of not downloaded files to application folder/error.log
- updated help file
- ...and many more!

Make sure that you get the new version. Remember, Mihov Picture downloader is still free software (freeware)! You can show your appreciation by making a small or large donation at http://www.picturedownloader.net/donate.php

Have fun,

Miha.

Sure, it's easy!

Do it with creating a list and then downloading pictures.

How did I do it? Like this:
First you have to find out where the images are stored. Examine link and extract javascript from it. Then find out the image location (let's say by right clicking on it and selecting Properties). You find out that all the pictures accessable as files with names such as this:
http://www.funpic.hu/ot/ot2475.jpg
By changing the URL you find out that the numbers are increasing with time, so there are also files like http://www.funpic.hu/ot/ot475.jpg and http://www.funpic.hu/ot/ot75.jpg and http://www.funpic.hu/ot/ot5.jpg and also http://www.funpic.hu/ot/ot1.jpg

That can lead only to one conclusion: start the program and make the list! The path and the first part of the file name ('http://www.funpic.hu/ot/ot') comes before the numbers, then numbers from 1 to let's say 2000, one decimal place, and ending is just '.jpg'. Click Start and that's it!
Beautiful, isn't it?

Miha.

Well, I tried my best. You have to agree with me that it's a pretty good deal if you get
1. program for free
2. help for free
3. support for free

I know that all of those could benefit some polishing, rewriting, optimizing,... But since my time is valuable I make my programs by Pareto Principle (the 80-20 rule) that helps me be more affective.

If you're willing to help me and if you see what should be done please start working on the help file for begginers. I'm afraid I don't see my program with the beginner's users eyes anymore, so i miss all the important stuff to the user.

So now it's your turn to do some work...

Miha.

Hmm, very good question... Even I didn't know the answer because I am not using that feature (I only use it for pictures and sometimes, very rarely, for mpg or avi). Well, I tried it for wildcards (*.*) and nothing happened... So I guess the feature is not there yet :-)

So th answer to your question would be: No, you don't get the list if you use wildcards. :-(
Sorry...

  Problem with command line usage    hits: 3365
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
Hi. I discovered this great little program last day. After trying it through the GUI, I would like to have a try on the command line feature.

I used this line :
PictDL.exe http://www.hebus.com/walljour.php "C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersDocumentsMes images" start exit

When I ran this line, I got a message 'Select at least one file' , I click OK and the program exit with no photo downloaded.

You can try this URL. It is a wallpaper site and each day, on this page, the best wallpaper of the day is published under the name 'day.jpg' and I would like to download (via scheduled tasks) each day the wallpaper of the day...

Is there a problem with my command line ? I tried it from the GUI and it works great. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Alain

Hmm, I know what the problem might be. When you said that you tried to download the file with the GUI you probably check the 'download embedded images' check box. That is why the day.jpg is found (the file is not linked, it is embedded in the page). But when you run the command line, then you don't specify this parameter and the picture is not found. I think this is the reason.
Now to the solution. I guess you expect me to tell you what parameter is it that allows you to download embedded images. Well, I have to admit there is no such parameter. Why not? Simple, because I have forgotten to add it when I enhanced the program with the option of downloading embedded images... Bad me.

I will look at the code and try to add that way of downloading, too. If it is not to complicated I'll do it, of course.

Have fun,

Miha.

  Can I somehow run multiple downloads from different pages, as a batch, and specify a unique picture prefix for each one?    hits: 5075
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
I cannot find any way to specify different prefixes for each page I download. I often try to harvest pictures from different pages, where the only change is a few digits for each page. When doing pages separately, I can specify a unique prefix with each page I download. I would like to be able to do downloads of pages, in a batch, and change prefixes for each downloaded page of pictures before they are downloaded and have the prefix carry through to the output pictures themselves..

I would be very appreciative of a solution.

Thank you, Dick.

Aha, so you would like to 'List download' pictures and instead of having prefixes '01', '02', '03',... you would like to add the name for each series of images individually?

If I understood you correctly, I'm not sure that I will do that, because that means that the user has to be beside the computer while downloading and inputting prefixes all the time.

Maybe I'll do it, just show me a useful usage for the functionality :)

Miha.

I think I want the same thing. Instead of having the prefix box after the list it would be with the url box. When you tell the program to load a page it would flag those links to have the prefix you entered selected. No need to have user input after the downloading starts. In the box that lists the links of the page it could show as

www.site1.com/directory/pic1.jpg +s1
www.site1.com/directory/pic2.jpg +s1
www.site2.com/directory/pic1.jpg +s2
www.site2.com/directory/pic2.jpg +s2

These would download to the files s1pic1.jpg, s1pic2.jgp, s2pic1.jgp, and s2pic2.jpg

Hallo Karel!

The problems could be:
1. You are not looking into the right folder where the photos are saved.
---> Click the View images button and current download folder will open.

2. The downloaded images are 0 in size. The program deletes them.

3. You have set up the smallest file size for the images not to be deleted to high.
---> Change Settings->Filter->Delete files smaller then... setting to a lower value.

That's all I can think of...

I hope it helps!

Miha.

Maybe you didn'n select a group of files to download and program downloads only single file.
Or maybe it is the problem i just wanted to ask about:
It is a rather long delay between downloading files, about 3-4 minutes.
I have fast ADSL connection and files of 200Mb are downloading in few seconds, when i download them directly from site.
Guess, Miha will explain this situation

When I enter the URL in the TAB of "download zone" and press the button "Load page" the program doesn't leave from this situation unless press the button of "STOP." In that moment the program makes the listing of the identified files.
I make the selection of ALL the files (I proved also selecting less) and press "SAVE PICTURE," and begin to discharge the first image. It arrive at 100%, but don't take the following image except for that I press STOP

makes him with any site.
My connection is type T1.

As I wrote, it's a rather long delay between downloadin page and files, about 3-5 minutes.
So, be patient, start loading page and simply wait, and maybe you'll get the same result as mine.
In any case, it's something wrong in program's behaviour.

So, i'm trying to download from www.3d.sk:

I entered my pass word, created my list. When I test the list in the browser, everythings fine the pictures show up. But when I click on save, I get the following:

Downloading show.php?id=151 -> show.php?id=151
Forbidden character in file name: show.php?id=151
Forbidden file name changed to: show.php_id=151
File show.php_id=151 is empty.
File show.php_id=151 was deleted because it was empty.

So, tried the link with the underscore "_" replacing the "?" in the browser and the link no longer works. I'm guessing this is the problem. Is there a workaround?

Hmm, it's a shame that I don't know the structure of the whole URL. Are youre that by trying to get the page
show.php?id=151you are getting JUST the picture, not a HTML file that contains a picture?

No, there is not a problem with _ or ?. That character was just changed because it's nt allowed on Windows.

I think the problem might be somewhere else, and this is that you get an empty file (that is why it is deleted). But I'm not sure why this happens - one reason could be timeout (improbable), other could be some site protection (also improbable), or maybe something wrong with the link. It's really hard to tell because I can't try it because I don't have the password to see the page structure by myself.

Maybe you can try to find out where the pictures are stored on the server (--> Copy link location or something similar in your browser) and then play a little with it...

Good luck,

Miha.

I'm not sure what this should be, but it's connected to some other components of your Windows system. Have you maybe installed some other software when Mihov Picture Downloader stopped working?

The problem must be with the pages that you're giving to the program. Of course, it would help if you wrote an address that does not work from your PC. That way I can try it and see if you're doing something wrong.
Note that the program looks for the links to pictures linked directly from the site you enter into the URL box!

Maybe it is your internet connection. Or it is not present or it uses proxy. If it is proxy, then set it up in the Settings tab.
Another possibillity would be your firewall software, if you have one. Make sure that it is not disallowing Mihov Picture Downloader to access the internet.

I hope this helps!

Miha.

The program looks for LINKS to pictures, try to understand this. When you find a page with LINKS to pictures, the program will work. Links to page WITH pictures are not links to pictures.

I would use the 'create list' feature. You have to find the links to the pictures and find the rule how they are named. For example, open a gallery and find out picture's URL: http://www.whedon.info/IMG/jpg/Sarah_Michelle_Gellar-Alanis_Morissette_Performs_Benefit_Concert-HQ_0014_0750.jpg
Then create the list with the info from URL, but change the last numbers. That way the images from this gallery will be downloaded. More on how to do this is described in online help at http://www.picturedownloader.net/help.php#create

Good luck!

Miha.

I installed Picture downloader into a Program Files/PictDL folder and am using the following command line command:

c:Progra~1PictDLPictDL.exe

http://a137.g.akamai.net/n/137/3538/20050412201728/www.cars.com/photo-ad/DMI/108068/000261.jpg

c:Docume~1dtitusaphoto

and I have the appropriate "aphoto" folder on my hard drive. When I run the above command from a batch file, I receive no error messages however, no photo is written to my hard drive. If you copy and past the URL above into a browser, you see the image of the car I am testing the download on but, no .jpg file is saved to my computer. Is there something I am doing wrong in my command line prompt?

Read this:
http://www.picturedownloader.net/help.php#command

The link that you're giving to the program has to be page that has links to images, not the image itself! It's the same as if you run the program normally and use it in download Zone mode.

There has been a lot written about this. The program is virus free, but because it is compressed (to reduce file size) some weaker virus scanners report that it is infected.
I suggest you try to download an update for your virus scanner or try to scan the program with another software, for example Norton Antivirus, F-prot or McAfee Virusscan.

And always download files directly from my website - this way the possiblity of infection is practically zero.

Thanks for your question,

Miha.

A very nice program, but if I'm downloading a picture, say fun.jpg, and there's already a fun.jpg in the directory it will overwrite it.

It would be nice if we could do have it put it in a directory based on the URL, so if it was deftones.com/picture/fun.jpg, it would be in folders deftones.com -> picture -> fun.

Thanks for the suggestion. This is one way of handling it, but I personally hate programs that create folders on my drive - because they create too many! And I surely wouldn't like to see my pšrogram doing that.

What do you think about the name change? For example, in your case deftones.com.picture.fun?

Well, in a way Mihov Picture Downloader does this (if you use list download functions). But I have never done a program that would go user-selectable levels deep.
I have thought about it, but it's stayed in mind, so nothing is done yet.

I'm new to mihov and registered with www.3d.sk. hundreds of high res anatomy pics for 3D modeling ref. i WISH TO DOWNLOAD.

I setup mihov with my password and took down my firewall. No Proxy

I found the index page,http://www.3d.sk/pro/index.html but it only downloaded a few pics from the first page.

I am trying to create a list so I can download several pics from here http://www.3d.sk/pro/Gabi_poses/page_06.htm

image propeties http://www.3d.sk/pro/Gabi_poses/Gabi_poses_0121.JPG

I'm not posative on how to do this. From Download zone I tried created a new list

http://www.3d.sk/pro/Gabi_poses/

Gabi_poses_

.0001 to .0141

JPG

I keep getting a wrong character error.

Also when loading up http://www.3d.sk/pro/index.html I get Connection closed message from the Download Zone page and a list of .htm from List download.


How can I setup the list correctly for downloading. I did follow the help docs I'm a little confused and am missing something. Maybe a short step by step would help.

Thanks in advance.

> .0001 to .0141

I think this is where the mistake is - you should write the numbers without the dot! Just write 0001 and 0141 and be sure to select 4 decimal places so the leading zeros will generate, too.

I am not able to give you better suggestions because as you mentioned this site needs a password and I don't have it, so I don't have access to it and I can not test it myself.

Good luck with it!

It can be done.

Just a short advice (for the explanation how to do it use other posts or just the help file that comes with the program): use the function Lists -> Create list and use links similar to this one: http://gallery.photo.net/photo/3097782-lg.jpg

That should work.

Well, it would help if you read help or posts in this forum.

If you open those links in your browser, do you see any links to pictures? No, the first one is the main page with just links to html files, the second one produces a forbiden message. so that is why the program does not show any pictures.

Yes, I think that filter was broken in some older version. It is possible that you're not using the latest version (but I believe you are). In that case it is possible that I messed up the filers again... Yes, i think that's it. Please mail me with your request and I'll send you a version with filter working (I think).

a timeout control has been added some versions ago, but it was really bad and was turned off . With the new version (that is not released yet in time of writing) I have tried to implement some sort of timeout again, I hope I'll be more successful this time. Until then there is the disconnect button :(

Hi everybody. I got problems downloading from a couple of site, any hel will ver highly appreciated. The first one is www.teen-beauty.com, a password protected site (I'm a registered member). The Picture Downloader doesn't show any links from the members section. The other one is http://gibson.sisters.free.fr/ (this is a free open site). The program lists correctly the links, but for some reason can't download any pictures (I tried downloading one, a small group and the entire list). Can somebody help me? Thanks in advance. Regards, Manuel.

This page doesn't include links to pictures. You can't just give the page one mail URL, you have to give it the whole address to the page where images are linked from!

These folders are not really folders, they are just links to real folders. Try finding them somewhere similar to this link:

c:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USERNAME\My Documents

There you will find your My Documents and My Pictures folders.

No, it is not possible to rename the images as they are dowloaded... The only solution might be adding some text in front of them by typing it into the filed close to 'Save images' button.

I was thinking of implementing a feature of not-evrwriting, so maybe I'll do it for the next version.

I've seen a feature on another program that should solve this issue - a crc32 checksum (is that the right name?!) is generated from the URL of the picture and is put that the beginning of the filename.

So you end up with files like:
ff22a2 image1.jpg
ff22a2 image2.jpg
etc...

This program is not going to be first class until you wake up and fix this problem. We need programs that automate functions, not programs that automate half of the process and then force you to do the rest by hand. I no longer classify any downloader as 1st class or even recommendable until this really bad flaw is fixed. I like this program, but seldom use it anymore as a result. Wake up Miha and get this fixed. It is the one giant flaw of your program and this will not be an acceptable downloader for many people until you add an automatic folder creation feature.

select all pics, right click, select "rename" put something memorable in front of the pic name e.g. "space"pic1 and all the pics will be renamed spacepic2, spacepic3 etc all at once

Hi Miha

Thanks for the effort you have put in, this looks like a very useful program.

Under the LIST DOWNLOAD Tab ...
You have the two options
1: Load List
2: Load list of SubFolders

When loading #2 above, it appears if you edit the list, it will not then download any images.
Also it appears to start from no specific point in the file, ie: not from the top.

Am I doing something wrong?

Is it possible to ouput the list that is created in either 1 or 2 above and then save it as a text file.
I could then edit it and then use it from the DOWNLOAD ZONE Tab?

Hope this makes sense

Regards, John

Hmm, I can not reproduce this bug. Can you send me the links that you have tried it on and the exact clicks that you have made before you have encountered the bug?

The list could be saved as file, but could not be used in Download zone - the list created here has links to html files, but the list in Download zone needs links to images.
I will add the option to save the list anyway - it should be there for the next version.

Well guys, all I can say it to READ THE HELP FILE! The program is not designed to work with all pages, just the pages that include LINKS TO PICTURES. It should be used with such pages.
If you are using it on other pages or even root folders of the sites, then the program probably won't work as you have expected.

Always read the help file first!

Sure, some pages won't work, because the program is not perfect and some page creators tend to 'hide' their pictures from programs like mine.

>

This link doesn't work because the source code of the page does not follow standards, it does not use quotes to specify picture name. I guess I could fix that.

> or

This link doesn't work because it has links to pages, not to images.
You could download the intire page by using List Download -> Create list. It's a little more work, but I think it's worth learning!

A lot of questions you have asked...
Let me try to answer to at least some of them.

With version 1.3 there is a way to download from blog sites - use Create list feature and make your own list of links. There is no other way.

No, I don't accept Paypal, because they are so inflexible that I am not able to open an account with them. I have a Amazon Wish list though, it can be seen from my web site or by following this link http://www.amazon.com/o/registry/3ATDPYVDN8950

A site with the text files is a good idea. Maybe someone like you should create that kind of forum and the users would be able to share their links. Nice!

Thanks for the compliments!!

First of all: great program! I've been using it for a few months now and I'm very happy with it.

I do have a few requests. I've not updated in about 4 months, so I hope I'm not charting known and/or fixed problems.

1) can't you program a function that automatically creates a file list, based on a pattern that the users gives? Like "http://skynet.com/pictues/###/index.htm" where the ### will be replaced with numbers from ... let's say 250 to 480 or something. Or maybe even advanced functions like skipping 2 numbers each time or something? I'm doing this in acces now, but for users that don't know how to program, this would be a nice funtion

2) the preview window keeps popping up, even if I minimize the main window or close the preview screen. This can be annoying

3) maybe the program can also check pictures in the root level of a site? I mean, the program is programmed to check for links to pictures, but when I enter a site where the pictues are on without links (so no thumbnails), then the program doesn't find anything.

Well that's about it. I hope you don't get me wrong: I love the program, it just needs a few minor adjustments.

I guess there has not been an update, but you should check the site or the documentation from time to time to see if there's something new. Anyway, the best way is to subscribe to the mailing list on the main page.

Actually, this has been done for quite some time now. Find 'Create List' and see the documentation on how to use it.

Well, if you close the preview window and set the options for it not to be displayed, then it won't show.

This would be a nice option, I agree. However, I am not planning to do it anytime soon now, because I as a user of the program don't really see an advantage of that. Sorry.

Great, I like it that you like the program. I know that it needs a lot of improvements, but it's also hard to make the improvements that averyone wants and at the same time keeping it simple and easy to use.

If i save the pics with your downloader in one folder, the downloader overwrites the pics permanently.

Actually the idea is like you got it - you just have to find a way to use it!. You can give the program the URL to the page, where those 60 sites are listed and it will do what you expect it to. But you can also give the program a text file with those links. Just go to 'List download' -> 'Load list from file' and open a text file where you have links to the galleries. Note: one URL per line. Then click 'Start' and the program should do exactly what you expect it to.

You could find that info on the help page also http://www.mihov.com/eng/help-pd.html
********
You can download images from several pages at one site at once. Supply the URL to the index page that has links to other pages and click the 'Load list' button. When the list is loaded you can click on 'Start!' button and every page will be downloaded as it would be if downloaded from the Download zone (see Downloading from a single page).

If you have a list of pages saved on your computer you can also give it to the program and it will download all the files from them. Make sure that the file with links is plain text file (*.txt) that has one URL per line. Then click the 'Load list from file' button in the 'List download' zone of the program. Open the file with links and the links will populate the links list. Then click the 'Start!' button and downloading will begin.

Note: the filenames of the images will change. For each link a prefix with link number will be added to the file name. E.g. image 'pic1.jpg' from link no. 2 will be saved as '02-pic1.jpg' and image 'pic5.jpg' from the seventh link will be saved as '07-pic5.jpg'. This is to prevent overwritten files - usually the files in the galleries have all the same names.

*********

I hope this helps!

Would be happy to, have forgotten how to put the screen into "Paint" ! However, I am sure that my display is normal. Perhaps I am not explaining myself very well;- To download a lot of pictures the "List" idea gets bogged down with "Napaka" messages after 10 minutes or so, it is actually more productive to use the Right mouse button to copy the url, go to the "Download Zone, click Disconnect, Click on the yellow "Copy from Clipboard" button, select all, then hit "Save pictures. If I do this with, say 8 copies pf Mihov pd, then my wrist starts to hurt with all the clicking and finding the tiny buttons (Like the "Copy from Clipboard" button"). I have tried to find sites that will work with "List", but usually the list is made, quite successfully-30-40 url's-then on Save-the files are "0" bytes and then we get the Napaka message again.

I assume it is OK to set 4 examples of Mihov all saving to the same destination file? My attampts at finding sites to work with the list are about 1 site in 10-15 that actually download for more than, say, 3 pages. Hence I usually end up going the long way round and click and manually select each and every url.
There MUST be an easier way !! Regards, Ian

Oh, now I see what you mean! The List download is supposed to be the easier way...

Anyway, about the Napaka message. I think this is shown just in the preview version (for developing and testing reasons). In th efinal version it will be gone - but I am not sure if the error will be gone too. I think the problem could be in saving all the pictures in the same folder - it can happen that the program copy #1 tries to write to file 03-image1.jpg while program copy #3 is also writing that file. And of course, a problem arises. Try saving to different folders - it should work.

And your wrist should be better again :-)

So now I am creating new folders for every example of PicDownloader that is List Downloading. Still getting Napaka. I have actually opened a new folder when it tells me Napaka, continued the download and it immediately gives me Napaka again, so I don't think it is getting the same identity on the files that is the prob. I have found the best way to continue after Napaka is to drop-down the list and click on the following url. This way I don't get napaka again for a long time.

I use the program quite often, but I never get the Napaka message (by the way, 'napaka' means 'error' in Slovenian language). Can you maybe send me the URL(s) that cause you problems? This is the easiest way I can identify what is going on.

This is usually not the case... The images have .jpg extension. What you think is that thumbs are leading to another page that has .html extension (and that page then includes a picture).

No, this program can't do anything with such pages. It's designed to download only links to pictures, but not designed to downlaod pictures from sites.

U can bypass that if u can find the address that host the images that all those individual pages link to.

I mean, u got a xxxxmain.html with many thumbs, each thumb links to another html page (So this great app doesn't show it as downladable). But the images in this second site usually have a common host, just find that one (example, take the IMAGE's URL and remove the filename until the last / and give it a try.

Here's my example:

Page:
http://www.****.com/xxx/InBedWithFaith/In_Bed_With_Faith/202/

It has links to:
http://www.****.com/xxx/InBedWithFaith/In_Bed_With_Faith/202/bunny000.JPG.html
http://www.****.com/xxx/InBedWithFaith/In_Bed_With_Faith/202/bunny001.JPG.html
up to
http://www.****.com/xxx/InBedWithFaith/In_Bed_With_Faith/202/bunny019.JPG.html

So i take the first image's URL:
http://www.****.com/xxx/img/InBedWithFaith/In_Bed_With_Faith/202/raw/bunny000.JPG

remove the filename and use the source as page to load:
http://www.****.com/xxx/img/InBedWithFaith/In_Bed_With_Faith/202/raw/

And it offers to download the 20 pictures!!
It worked for me quite fine :)

I hope it makes sense.

Pause and resume??!
Hmm, I guess it is possible, but I'm not sure how to do it... Well, I could do the pause between images, not in the middle of an image.

Maybe I'll do it, but I'm not sure yet. I kind of don't need this feature...

I think it would be a good idea to turn, the mihov picture downloader into a Firefox 1.0 plug-in, and I believe this would greatly improve the circulation of your software.

I 've just installed the newest version of Mihov Picture Downloader and I can't download any files(JPEGs, GIFs, HTMLs). The program will reach stage 2(Host Found. Connected sucessfuly), then it goes back to stage 1 with message-Connection closed. I've disabled my firewall and tried downloading from sites that I've sucessfully downloaded from in the past, but no luck. I didn't have this experience with the previous version of the program. Any suggestions on what I should do? Thanks for listening.

File filter drop down menu in this version is a little corrupt if you select other extensions. The best way to use it is just leave it as it is (all pictures). Then the program will work without problems.

Good luck,

Miha.

I ot the same problem... i have the latest version 1.3... sometimes the programm works strangely.... as i have subscribed for an erotic photo site(MET), I need to know how to solve this problem: I have a whole line of addressess for picture viewing, (I mean the same basic adress, but with different indexes for different picture collections), some of them work fine, the others display same -Host Found. Connected sucessfuly), then next stage -Connection closed.
And I am using default file filter options.

Even with this , the programm works really amazing.. trhe speed is really fast I love it...
So if this problem could be fixed, then I think this could be THE BEST PICTURE DOWNLOADER
Thanx, Any suggestions??

Okay, it may not be the proxy thing after all. When I connect (regularly, no proxy), I can download the pictures from the test/default website, but then when I try other pages, it doesn't work.

Definition from Webopedia:
A proxy server is a server that sits between a client application, such as a Web browser, and a real server. It intercepts all requests to the real server to see if it can fulfill the requests itself. If not, it forwards the request to the real server.

Hmmm, perhaps this isn't my problem after all. I am able to download the pics from the test site, but I am unable to stay connected to other sites. It says that it connects, but then it closes within a second. I switched to proxy but I couldn't connect at all. I didn't change the default settings for the proxy though, is that where I've gone wrong???

I have noticed that all pages with pictures are the same site address so it seems it has some hidden addresses. I have set up the proxy since I am behind a firewall and it has worked on other sites, but this one has me stumped.

There should be no troubles with the change of versions, because I have not introduced any new download techiques. Maybe you just have to set the settings the same way like you had them before? Or maybe some firewall program is blocking the downloader? Maybe Windows Service Pack 2?

Older versions are not available on the internet. The only way to get them is by ordering a CD with all th eprograms, all previews of the new versions and all older versions.

One loads list of *links*, that is the links from within the page than point to another html file.

Faststone Image viewer has a "create new folder" toggle its the very first toggle folder overtop the pictures when you open the program.We all know the best solution is the the one that free pic grabber uses and that is if it finds a duplicate jpeg then it renames the jpeg with an underscore. A settup where the program would have an overwrite mode as it is stuck doing now would be a nice selection within the program window but not something where pop up windows would be needed.For most cases the create new jpeg with underscore would be the mode to run with.Mihov take a look at the tactics used by

  yet another enhancement request..    hits: 2199
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
First of all, excellent program Miha. If it's possible if/when you update MPD, it would be great if you could implement a way to rename or sort files with conflicting names from different sites. I've seen a couple different ways of doing this, either by autorenaming files or by creating a new sub directory for each site's files. Only a suggestion, I'm not a programmer so it's easier said than done I'm sure. It's a little bit of work sorting files in between downloads to prevent overwritten files, but not near as much work as setting up various filters like the others. I still prefer yours since it never grabs the wrong pics and doesn't spend an eternity spidering every link for the pics. Thx for a great program and keeping freeware alive for the rest of us who are broke. :P

Great App...

I suggest an enhancement....
check if file downloading it's a real file according to his extension...

for example first 4 byte for a JPEG are in hex "FF D8 FF E0" ....
so you can check for example if file it's a real jpeg or an html stream of "404 not found" page....

end so on for other file types

Thanks for the idea. Do you know the headers for other files also?

Well, the program always takes just one level - the last level that you have specified. If you want to download from more levels:
- you should find a file with links to different levels
- create your own list with links o many levels
These two ways can make the program download pictures from any level.

Mr. Miha,

I love the concept and I loved the first time I used it. Now I have a problem and need help. I ran into the overwriting problem when downloading multiple sites and noticed it while it was happening (not an issue I am learning the program).

What became an issue is what happened next. I stopped the downloads and saved the file as an HTML document. I then cleaned up the files (that is deleted them) from my hard drive and made subdirectories so that I could start again keeping the files separated myself.

I then closed the program and reopened it. Reloaded the list and positioned myself on the first 15 files then chose save pictures with preview.

It showed connection open then filename1, filename2, ....., filename15, connection closed. Fifteen jpg files showed up on my hard drive, even though no previews showed up, but they where all corrupted. I thought this might be a connection problem so I disconnected shut down the program and reset everything to try again. The next time it did not even create the jpg file?

Please, any hints or tips would be useful. Is their a buffer or directory that needs to be cleared I am missing. Any help you can give will be appreciated. I love the programs concept and your interface is nice I just cannot determine if this is an unfixable bug or not. (ps: the pictures do load from Netscape when loading the html file.)

Just let me give you a hint: the gallery has to be downloaded in expert mode, which menas creating a custom list of URLs. Use the Search function and look for 'Create List'.
Hint#2: you really want pictures like this, just increase the number at the end:

I think it may be due to a firewall problem. Do you have a firewall installed? The picture downloader works OK on my home PC once I set the firewall to allow it to access the internet. However the picture downloader won't work at my workplace and I keep getting "Failure while transmiting" and I think it is because my workplace firewall won't let it send particular data to the internet. It seems to connect to the host OK but after that it closes the connection so I get the following messages:

Host found.
Connected successfuly.
Connection closed.
Failure while transmiting.
Connection closed.
Connection closed.

Hope this helps. I'm not going to run Mihov Picture Downloader at work because it is just too much hassle asking the system administrator to allow Mihov Picture Downloader full access to the internet and then explaining to them why you want the access, etc, etc :o)

  I can only download one by one, but not in a batch    hits: 2757

I use the newest version of the PD (1.3) - but there is the following problem:

When I copy a URL and click on "Load Page" the list of pics is displayed. It is no problem to mark the first line, click on "Save pictures". Then mark the second line, click on "Save pictures" .. etc.

But when I mark all pics in the list by using the *-Button and then click on "Save pictures", either only one pic in the list is saved or sometimes several pics are downloaded but it takes about 5 Minutes untill the next one appears in the explorer (allthough I have a very fast connection).

What could be the reason for this problem?

The problem could be in establishing a link with th eserver. If the connection is not closed, the program won't go to the next image and will thus wait and wait...
Does this happen with every site or only a specific site?

Hi Miha!

in the meantime I tested several sites. But every (!) site that I checked showed this problem. By the way: I use a small private net with a proxy-server for the web-access.

Could it be that it's connected with the proxy? Have you tried running it from th ecomputer that doesn't use proxy? I think this could be it... Try to configure the proxy differently and it might start to work lik eit should :)

Hi Miha!

Many thanks for the answer. In the meantime, I checked it with a proxy-free connection- and it worked!

My problem is that in my local net I have to use this proxy, in the moment. I will try to find another solution.

Best regards, Klaus

Normally this is an easy solution. For some reason MPD hangs up sometimes and won't download squat. I've found that just closing it and reopening another version of the program almost always works if it's a site you know you've been able to download from in the past. Also sometimes just hitting the load button a second time will take care of the problem if you tried to load the file too quickly the first time.

An even better solution would be to download the Pictures Toolbar. It downloads more and is more seamless than MPD. It may not be as fast as MPD. It won't make your Carpal Tunnel Syndrom worse whereas MPD will. Mihov must be a young guy, because downloaders that create their own folders are easily superior to this. I still use it some, but I got tired of having to remember to create a folder each time, and I got tired of having photos overwritten when I was sending things to the same folder. You have a good program here Mihov, why don't you wake up and make it great. I started to plop down the $15 and send in to you earlier until I found out how significant the lack of it building it's own folders was. However, if you are trying to get Carpal Tunnel or worsen the case you already have then you'd definitely have to go with MPD over Pictures Toolbar. Otherwise PT is hands down better in my opinion. Wake up Mihov and improve this program, the lack of it generating it's own folders sucks.

The only idea I have is that the images could get overwritten by a file with the same name. On Unix and Linux systems there is a difference between small and large letters, so the file image1.jpg and IMAGE1.JPG are not the same. If you're trying to download both images, Windows will thing that it's the same file and will overwrite it.

I see no other possibility...

You should not need to set some special settings, the program should work as it is.
There is a reason to your error: the test server is down (page does not exist). Try it with this additional server: http://www.psenica.com/pdtest1/test.html

change the file type and try again.
if you are doing mpg then switch to avi and reload.
if that fails switch back to mpg and reload.
after one or two tries it will connect.

Well, the uRL that you gave me is not a HTML file, but an image itself... And images don't have links to other images, but HTML files do. So try using a HTML page with thumbnails as the URL you give to the program.

Good luck,

  Excellent Program!    hits: 2631
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
I have to hand it to you Miha, this is one of the most useful programs I ever used and darn simple as well. I never had any kind of problem with it and new versions of it are getting better and better. I used a bunch of similar programs before I found this one but none of them came close to the simplicity, small size and functionality as your Picture Downloader.

You probably get a dozen new feature requests everday but I hope you can squeeze in my suggestion in the next version or so. It would be really useful if you could just select a folder, which contains a bunch of URLs (Internet Explorer Favorites), that are all automatically downloaded with a few clicks. And to prevent overwriting files with the same name just make it so that all files downloaded from one particular URL are stored in a newly created folder. So if you have 20 URLs, all the downloaded files should be stored in 20 new folders.

Thanks for making such a great program!

First I have to thank you for the compliments! Thanks!!

Your suggestion is not bad at all. At least for someone who uses Internet Explorer... Well, I will see what I can do about it and how much time it would take me. Since this is not a feature that I would use I can not say that it has a top priority. And you have noticed well, I get too many requests all the time. Now I have started to work (a full time employment) so I'm still thinking how to find some time for my freeware. Option one is to give the sources to someone else, number two is to make the programs shareware (payable). I don't like any of these solutions.
Number three is do nothing - and that is what I am selecting so far... And I'm hoping that I'll have some more time soon.

Have fun,

Miha.

Thank you for the program Miha! It is a very good download manager for pictures and movies, fast enough, without additional rubbish and undesireble facilities. When do you think wi'll appear the next edition. I am very interested, even is payd. If you do'nt mind please accept my suggestions for future improvement :
1. A check box for autorename or better to grab the pictures from same URL in a different director automatic created.
2. The entire process (save all jpg from an URL, depends of settings), can be automatized. One click on a toolbar icon, as Diodia's program have, save a lot of time.
3. A limit of picture's size.

Best regards!

I'm not sure about the next version because of all the other work I have... And I have it a lot, I can't see out of it really.

Your suggestion are interesting, I think I will implemement some way of downloading images with the same name without them being overwritten. I doubt I I'll create subfolders, because I hate that, but other options are open.

What did you mena with point 2.? Can you explain it in more detail?

I was thinking of Nr. 3, but I'm not sure whether I should limit the file size only up or also down... Something like 'download images larger than... and smaller than...'.

Thanks for your post!

However, I was wondering if there was a way to make a batch folder destination? for example, if the files are say in www.websitename.com/a/1.jpg etc and www.websitename.com/b/1.jpg etc I want to make it so that they save in folders a and b (thus getting around the whole overwriting files problem as well as organizing the ifles into subfolders). would there be an easy way for you to implement this?

The program doesn't create any folders at all!! It only puts files into the selected folder, and those files are not read-only, they are normal files.

The only folder created is the one that is created during install by the setup program. You can delete that folder by uninstalling the program.

I just started working with this Pic Downloader. I've tried a few others with the Yahoo groups (which appear similar to the MSN group). I was informed by another company that Yahoo (and probably, MSN, also) photo pages are in a special format that the picture download programs can't download. This program worked fine with a "regular" website, but not Yahoo. My experience is that if it works with "regular" websites, it can't work with the photos from the Yahoo groups because of the different format of the page that has the jpeg photo.
I hope this information helps.

I guess you have made a mistake and assosiated the jpg file tipe to the installer of the program! So the uninstaller unistalled the program and its files, but you still have the installer somewhere.
Use Windows Exporer to change file association to another program, then delete the setup file (you have to find out the path by yourself, but it's probably where you have saved it when you donwloaded it).

Hope this helps,

I'm attempting to download a large number of pictures from a site. These pictures have duplicate names and are in many different subdirectories. I've created a batch file that looks like:

Is there any way to automatically make Picture Downloader exit when complete? Closing is extremely time consuming!


Other than that, it's a brilliant program! If I can get this fixed, I'll be a fan for life!

It's Delphi. There are two versions of the program actually, one is made with D4, the other with D6.

  Protected sites that dont use password..    hits: 2313

IS there any way to (or could you add support) have the program tell a site your going to that you just came from another site? Sometimes with sites you pay for you, get other FREE sites but those free sites ONLY work if you go to them from the site your paying for, when you try to load them in picture saver, it wont see the pics becuase the connectoin is not authorized becuase technically its trying to start a new connection and not telling the site it came from the paid site.. Entering the paids site username and password do not work becuase this other site does not check for that, it just checks to see if your coming from the pay site..

any ways?!

Yes, you are right, that can be true sometimes. I will implement that feature, I hope soon. Since I don't know when I'll put out a new version don't be a stranger and ask me from time to time if the new feature is ready and I'll mail it to you, OK?

Now the referrer for each request is the page that was entered into the URL box, if that helps for now...

Have fun,

  Remember Last Folder    hits: 2304

This is a great program! I really like it.

I would like to see a couple of other features, one of which is in a post by someone else and that is to warn or rename when trying to overwrite an existing file.

Each time I want to change the destination folder I have to click on the Settings Tab and browse to the new folder. Usually I save files in FilesTemp1, FilesTemp2, etc. It would be nice if, after saving to FilesTemp1, that same folder, ( FilesTemp1, ) would appear in the Save Images To text box instead of defaulting back to the Picture Downloader folder.

Make sure that you are using the latest version of the program. Then go to 'Settings' tab, where you change the folder like you usually do. Now make sure that you press the 'Save settings for the next run' button! This way the selected folder will be the default folder next time you run the program.

To my experiences, the pictures on the website you try to download might be *.bmp files. I also have the same problem like your. When I use "as picture as" option of Internet Explorer 6.0; I discovered it is bmp format. And I don't know why MIHOV PICTURE DOWNLOADER 1.3 doesn't support this picture format. Hope that answer your question

This site is passowrd protected, so I don't know how to help you because I don't know what tools they use. But otherwise PHP or not PHP, this is not a problem. Your browser (and Mihov Picture Downloader also!) always get HTML and that is all it matters.
If there is javascript involved, the download almost certainly won't work, but otherwise it should.

Hi!

As you might see I have removed your password information from your post.

Now to the downloading part. It's simple! But you have to remove the pasword part between http:// and www... and enter it into the appropriate fields in the program (Settings->password). Clisk use password and then enter the URL of the folder (in second case http://www.perfect10.com/perfectten/p10_pages/members/gallery/categories/Katarzyna_Kozaczyk/ ) to the normal download box and start downlaoding! It's that easy for the second site. I'm not sure how it is for the first one, but the process is the same. As URL use a page with thumbnails but without the user@pass part!!

Hope this helps,

Miha.

Hi Miha,

Thanks for removing the password informations. I have followed your steps but didnt work. I said to myself "if Miha can download pic through that site, then i should be able too" and finally i got it right but no luck on that first site though.

Too many option to choose from that first site, maybe thats what makes the program hard to get the pic's link.

However, i got few suggestions for ur kickass program:

1. Make "save images from" to remember the last location coz each time i have to browse through folders after folders..

2. U could also add "*.zip" into the program so it can download all the zips instead of turning on this "*.*" options, i think by turning on that options, it will download whatever on the page and we just need zips :p

3. The worst thing is: the program will overwrite the pics with the same names on the same folder u r saving to...

Thanks again for your help Miha. Your PD program ROCKS! :-)

Then the only suggestion I can give you is that the program looks for links to images, not websites or html files. So far it looks like you're using wrong URLs for the program. Correct that and try again.

Actually you don't need to re-install the program every time!!! Just make sure that you run the program by opening the Start menu, selecting item Programs, then Mihov Freeware and then Mihov Picture Downloader. Then the program will run without re-installing!

I guess what you did was save the downloaded file to the desktop and now you are running it every time... And since the downloaded file is a setup file...
I suggest you delete that one and create a new one by right-clicking on the desktop and selecting New->Item. Browse to the file PictDL located in My Programs/Mihov Picture Downloader. Then everything will as it should be!

Thist must help!!

Good luck,

Miha.

Hello Miha,
Your a champion mate ... great app !
Sometimes when I save Jpegs from a site, they are incomplete. For instance it will download 92% of an image and then thats it. The resulting downloaded file has a grey area where it didnt save. Is there a possibility to add a pause break between image downloads and to vary the pause by including a field where you enter the number of seconds you want the break to be in a future version?

Also, what language is this application written ?

You figured out right why the files are not complete (sometimes). Not always is the reason timeout - sometimes it is also a broken connection between the server and the cliend application.
I guess a cutomizable timeout would be OK, maybe I'll put it in the code.

The program is written in Delphi.

Have fun,

Miha.

I have right clicked on an image and used that address minus the file name and used my login name and password to go to the directory, ( http://artmine.tripod.com/cafe/ ), where I know the images are stored, but still nothing. Could you take the url, http://www.cafeshops.com/aroseisarose , try it and tell me what I am doing wrong. I just must not be understanding your instructions. It seem you have already answered this question 10 times in the forum, but I cannot apply your answers and get a solution that works.

I think that site at cafeshop uses too many scripts.

It is not index.html, not default.html.
It is just a lot of scripts serving the pages/images.

Latest ver. is much better-less resource guzzling ! A Suggestion;- the small box where you select file type (.jpg; .bmp) could that be made to remember the previous setting ? It is easy to miss it if you have several instances and you end up with about 1000 .unwanted .gif adverts !

Noticed that NOW if the downloading from "List" , the prog. can stick on a certain site, before with prev. version if you hit "Disconect" the next site was then downloaded and the prog usually carried on-now all I get after "Disconect" is "Closed" and you have to Start from the beginning of the list all over again. This is the main prob. for me, I usually run about 8/9 instances of PD overnight. With the new version it seems to be much more likely to stop downloading than the prev. version. Any special reason for this please ? LIke the preview facility. Thanks.

The option to remmeber file type may be added, but I was thinking more of something like "don't download file if size is les than..." Or "delete the file if it's pixel size is...". This would be better for me, so I guess it would be better for the users also.

What's new about disconnect? Hmm, don't remember really. But if it's something new, than you should fins it in the readme.txt that comes with the program.

These sites are all sites with images, but you should read the program description! You have to find a page where you have links to the pictures, and then give this address to the program. The program is not designed to search the whole URL for links, because that is not very productive. You would also get other images, like menus, buttons, banners, and I believe you don't want that.
So try to find a subpage with LINKS to th epicturtes and try with it!

Good luck!

As I said: you have to find a specific page with links to images. In 99% the index page of the site is not it! So browse a site a little and click to the part of the page where images (or thumbnails) are. Then copy the address and give it to Mihov Picture Downloader. Then the pictures will be downloaded without any trouble.

Good luck,

Miha.

Hi!

Unfortunatelly the source code of the program is not available as it is everything I own from the program. It's freeware, afterall.
About the translations I am planning to make it localaized. So far I have only done so with some of my programs (see http://www.mihov.com/eng/translate for details). However, I would be grateful if you can translate the program description for the web page to Portuguese! If you are interested, just tell me so, and I will send you the files you have to translate to your e-mail address. Unfortunatally I have yet not made the translating application for online use... I'm really thankful for this!

Have fun and hope to hear soon from you,

You paste the url, set the type to .mpg and hit load page. Nothing happens and connection closes.

All you need to do is switch the type mpg-avi or vice-versa and load page again. If you get another connection closed switch the file type again or just hit load page again. The page will load eventually.

If the test pages work fine than the program works OK. So the problem must be with the pages that you're giving to the program. Of course, it would help if you wrote an address that does not work from your PC. That way I can try it and see if you're doing something wrong.
Note that the program looks for the links to pictures linked directly from the site you enter into the URL box!

Good luck,

I cannot download any picture: when I click 'Load page' the message
'Host found.' appears and then after a few (15) seconds :
Connect FAILED.
Connection closed.
And a blue number 1 appears in the left upper corner of the program, when I go over it with my cursor there is a tooltip, but it is in Slovenian.
I read most of the other posts, but cannot find an answer to my problem because
I don't use a firewall and for my other connections I don't need a proxy setting.
Also I use the test page of the program.
So what can be wrong?
Thanks

If the test pages work fine than the program works OK. So the problem must be with the pages that you're giving to the program. Of course, it would help if you wrote an address that does not work from your PC. That way I can try it and see if you're doing something wrong.
Note that the program looks for the links to pictures linked directly from the site you enter into the URL box!

Good luck,

Miha.

All I can think of is your internet connection. Or it is not present or it uses proxy. If it is proxy, then set it up in the Settings tab.
Another possibillity would be your firewall software, if you have one. Make sure that it is not disallowing Mihov Picture Downloader to access the internet.

I hope this helps!

Miha.

Hi There,

I have a problem with photo downloader which I recently downloaded.

Every time I open the programme - paste the link URL in the address box and Click LOAD.. Nothing happens.

In the Box At bottom left hand corner a message comes 'connecting' - then 'host found ' and then a message comes 'Disconnected' .

Why is my Photo downloader not downloading pics - forget about downloading It is not even giving a preview.

Since I am not connected to other networks and I surf from my own Home PC , there should be no problem regarding proxy setting… still I tried checking that with no avail…. The problem is no regarding Password ..the site from which I want to download is a free , non password site.


Kindly advise

Thank You

It looks like you are running the program from a read-only drive, like CD or protected hard disk. Mihov Picture Downloader saves the history info in dl.ini file that is put in the same folder where the program is. Try to run the program from a write-enabled disk drive.

Another possibility is that the disk is full. Free some disk space and try again.

Hope this helps!

Yes, it's a great suggestion... I'll see when I will add it to the program and how. If the program asks aquestion, then the whole idea of batch downloading is at stake... The point of the program is that the user should have no work when the pictures get downloaded... Maybe a different name should be used, or some sufix added. I myself hate those Microsoft (1) extensions... Then the whole disk looks like image1(1).jpg, image1(1)(1).jpg,...

Thanks for the suggestion anyway, I'll see what I'll do.

PD is a gret program, but it is badly missing a "images not downloaded" log. If you have 90 or 100 pictures downloading, & 1 or 2 time out (& thus PD doesn't download them), you have to go through each one manually to tell what ones you have to re-try, because PD does not inform you. Will this be added in a later version?

This is a range check error. It should not be present in version 1.2. Do you still see it in this version?

> I also wanted to find out about 100% CPU usage. Is that a bug or is it just on certain machines?

As far as I know it is just on certain machines. It is connected to a dll that comes with Windows. If you want you can try the new preview version that has this bug fixed. Send me an e-mail and you will get the program.

Any idea what causes it or how to avoid it?
I would also be interested in the newer version you mentioned because I run

This means that no links to pictures were found. Maybe there is no links to pictures (but to HTML files instead) or the HTML is encoded in this way that Mihov Picture Downloader has problems with it. In this case try to find out the image filenames and try using 'Create List' downloads.

Hi!

I'm not sure what causes it and I'm not sure exactly what it is... All I know is it is not good :-)

I think it can be overridden; I will try to do that in the next version.

If this is of any help;- When using the List Download, when I get "Napaka" I click OK then open the drop-down list from the Download zone page (small arrow immediately to the left of the green box) highlight the next url, hit Load page and then it seems to continue loading for some time longer. Perhaps there is a way for the prog to move onto the NEXT url if it hits a snag with the current url ??

  problems with proxy    hits: 1639
Posted by    
Reply      Monitor
I'm having problems downloading using the proxy feature. Whenever I download a set of selected files, it will download the first file completely, but will stop there (a blue signal square will then show).

Occasionally (but rarely) a proxy site will continuously download as much as 5 files but again stops and may continue only after veerry long pauses.

I'm able to get it to continue downloading the next file only if I press the STOP button after each file downloads.

It doesn't seem to be an issue with specific proxies because I test them with my browser first and they work fine. And I've tried many different proxies but still get the same problem.

Also a related but different question: If I use a proxy with my IE browser, does the program automatically use that proxy and so I may not need to put in anything in the proxy field or do I still need to fill the proxy field in if I want the program to use that server address?


The program actually was working great (including being able to use the proxies) before, but I've had to reinstall it because I was having computer problems, and it's just now that I'm having trouble with the proxy feature.

Thanks

Blue square means 'file downloaded'.

That means that the connection over proxy stay open even after the file was downloaded and that it doesn't continue until it is released. I will look into it!

No, Mihov Picture Downloader is not connected to IE or system settings. You need to enter all the data in the program settings again.

Hmm... Tell me, did you use the same version both times or did you download an updated one? I think I may have solved the problem for the next version. If you are willing to test a next preview version I can send it to you by e-mail. Just drop me a line and tell me so, OK?

You can't. Mihov Picture Downloader can manage only HTML pages (but that also includes extensions php, htm, txt, asp, jsp, cgi,...).

But it is possible to save the whole Flash 'movie' - you can do that with your browser alone.

Hope it helps,

Congratulations for this great utility. I have had no problems downloading pictures from free domains, I got trouble with some password protected sites though.... A good example is www.cl-studio.com. I have set the password, I get the list of the jpg pics, but when the program downloads and saves them, their size is only a few bites and there is no preview. Obviously they are not real jpg files. Any way I can work around that? Maybe the site has some kind of protection against offline browsers? I have been able to get some of the pics with other programs, but I love this one so I hope there is a solution!

Probably there is some kind of protection, but I can not know what kind it is.
The small files are not jpg files (even if they have such extension), they are HTML files. They are web pages informing you of an error or with a not allowed message. If you rename them to .html, then you can open them in explorer and see for yourself.

Thanks for your great compliments!!

I am happy to tell you that I have released a new version of Mihov Picture Downloader!! It should simplify loading of large lists and downloading of more exotic files (like swf or anything elese, actually).

The program is again freeware and can be downloaded from the web site at http://www.mihov.com/eng/pd.html for free! So get it now!

Another option of getting the program is by ordering the CD with ALL the programs released by me. On the CD you will also find beta versions of programs like Mihov Image Resizer and Mihov Gallery Creator, which are not available on the internet yet. They are still in beta phase of development but they include some great new features. The CD can be ordered from the page http://www.mihov.com/eng/ordercdnow.html

The program is designed to look for the links to the pictures,
not pictures. So if the images are not linked to, as in your case, but are part of the web site, you can't help yourself with MPD.
But: in the new version you can create a list of images that MPD has to download. So if the pictures you're trying to download are named in a logical way, e.g pic1.jpg, pic2.jpg,..., then you can build a list of filenames that are later downloaded. You can access this feature by clicking on the 'Lists...' button in Download zone and selecting 'Create List' from the opened menu. I'm not sure, but this feature is maybe to come in 1.2, so if you don't see it, mail me for a preview version, OK?


> Also how do I get around Active Server Pages?

There *should* be no problem with sites that use ASP, JSP, PHP... But usually there is, right? One problem I have noticed is with the filename. If you are downloading file showimage.asp?image=21, then the file gets downloaded OK, but when MPD wants to save the file, it uses the same name. And because the questionmark (?) in not an allowed character for a filename under Windows, an error pops up. I will try to solve this in some future version and I can't give you any workarround at the time...

Have fun,

Miha.

'Save List' saves a list of *images* from one site. And the site is the last one. If you want to save a list of sites you downloaded images from than I suggest you find the file 'dl.ini' in the same folder where Mihov Picture Downloader is installed. The file is history file and incudes all the sites you have entered in the program.

Hope this helps!

I have version 1.1 of your software, and it usually works great...but occasionally the images are cropped at the bottom. Is there a way to adjust the timeout setting, to compensate for low bandwidth websites?

All the best for 2003-
Thanks for explaining. I can now get some List Downloads to work. I have found it better to open say 5 folders, one for each example of the PD running. However, I get a long list of URL's after " Load List" is pressed, but after pressing "Start" I either mostly get "Out of range" or "Napaka". This week I have also been getting a rather alarming NEW message, " Cannot Create C:-----Picture Downloader dl.ini " Any ideas on that one?

You ARE getting there but it is very frustrating to find one day-5,000 downloades and the next day (with the same list) 5 downloads. Keep up the excellent work !

Hi, miha !

hmm, I read the post about Timeout with large pics and slow servers below and I have an idea about it, it would solva my problem with proxies as well (not a nice solution, but it should work) ... I started a new thread because ... uhm ... ehm, I felt like starting a new thread :) hope that's ok.
Well, as far as I remember you have a procentual counter of how much of the image is downloaded already ... So, just wait for it becoming 100% rather than a fixed timeout and - when reached 100% proceed and download the next picture (that would solve my proxy problem, because it waits after 100% is reached). I don't know if you perhaps already thought of this problem and it is not as easy to implement as I think now, but I hope this could be a solution.

So, what do you think ?

BTW, what about an open source license for your programs ? Have you thought about it ? I'd love to see the source and work with it, but it's your decision of course !

Greetings,
Luzipher.

I have thought about it and I have done some work on it but I just couldn't get it right. So I commented all the new code for better times :-) I hope they will come soon. I have also read that this standard Delphi web components make a lot of problems, so I might change them with some 3rd party components... We'll see, OK?


> BTW, what about an open source license for your programs ? Have you thought about it ? I'd love to see the source and work with it, but it's your decision of course !
Open source doesn't sound nice to me: because this program is freeware it is already free to use for the users and I have nothing from it. If I reveal the code I'll have nothing of th eprogram anymore!!! So I guess the code has to stay mine and mine alone.

One thing I forgot to mention in the other post;-

If I get a list of files showing "0" bytes, and then hit "Disconnect" then usually PD goes straight on to the next URL and continues OK. Can something be built in to the prog. as a settable option,so that it would automatically detect zero value downloads and automatically switch to the next URL and so on until it reaches a normal download?

Dear Miha, you are truly my hero: thanks for a great program!

However I've got a question as well: there are these two sites I wish to get aaaaallll the pictures from, but no luck. Of course these sites have some protection built in... but I was wondering if you could give me a hint on what to do to go round that protection? I'd very much appreciate an answer :)

The sites I'm talking about are:
http://www.elvis-collectors.com/vault.html
and
http://www.elvispresleypages.com/frames.html (under the section pictures of course)

Thank you and enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Hi Lilian!

So you're into Elvis...
OK, here's the deal: you gave me a really easy job; so I guess it won't be too hard for you to get the pictures. I am not sure which version you are running, but 1.1 should do the job.

I don't want just tell you what to do, I want to teach you how to do it, OK?
1. URL is http://www.elvis-collectors.com/vault.html
You can see an index with lots of thumbnails with links to the pictures. This is good. There are six such pages, so you think to yourslf: this will be a job for the 'List download' feature. Clisk on the 'List download' tab and paste the URL into the address area, click 'Load list' and wait for the list to load. You will see five links - so just click 'Start!' and the pictures will be downloaded.
Because of the way the index is built on that page you are missing the pictures from the first page. To get them go to 'Download zone' in the program, enter URL, and click 'Load page'. When the page is loaded select all the pictures and click 'Save pictures'. And that is really it!!

2 URL is http://www.elvispresleypages.com/frames.html
Everytime you see a page with frames you have to know that you have to somehow 'break out' of the frames to get the right URL for the pictures. In this case you already gave the answer. You said: "(under the section pictures of course)". That means that you have to get only that page, so the best way is to right-click on the link and select 'Open in a new window'. Once you'll do this you will get a new window with the picture gallery and the URL will be http://www.elvispresleypages.com/Pictures/Pictures2001.html.
Copy the URL, open 'Downlod zone' in Mihov Picture Downloader, paste the URL and click 'Load page'. When the page has loaded select all the pictures and clcik 'Start!'. The pictures will soon be in your computer.

So you see, it is not that hard - you just have to try some features of the program.

Have fun,

Miha.

Dear Miha,

Now I feel so stupid, how come I didn't figure this out all by myself :) But as I said: I managed to get it to work on other pages though :)

As for the first page, the picture vault thing, it works: the pictures get downloaded but when I try to watch a picture, there is nothing to see? Only page 6 of the picture vault works :( Or do you get all the pictures Miha? If yes, I probably still do something wrong :)

Either way, I'm thrilled with this piece of software... it's great :)

Thank you for your time and efforts in teaching me and... take care,

It works fine to me, but I guess you can not be doing anything wrong. Try to download each gallery separately, like you did gallery 6. Make sure that you don't overwrite files if they have the same name. But I think the name is different, so there's no problem!

Dear Miha,

One last question before you get tired of me :) After noticing that you can list all downloadable '.mp3' files on one page also, I got to work with that feature too. It works perfectly... although there is something I wonder about: all my songs stop after for instance 58 seconds, 1 minute and 20 seconds... Did I forget to change some settings or did I just visit the 'wrong' site again :(

For your information: I'm talking about the following page http://www.elvis1.de/dl/mp3/mp3.html

With kind regards,
Lilian.

Yes, this would be my fault... You are doing everything right, it's just that this version of Picture Downloader has some sort of a bug: a timeout occurs in 60 seconds. MP3 files are long, so the are not finished in one minute, and the programs cancels their download.
You can wait till the next version is out or you can ask me to send you a preview by e-mail.

Hello Miha,

I'm sorry for this late reply, I was waiting for an e-mail to notify me of your answer :) Gosh nothing works properly with me *teasing wink*

Anyway I want to thank you for your answers. Too bad I have to keep repeating that the 'vault' think still doesn't work, but don't worry: thanks to your program I now have millions (exaggerating a few thousand... or more!) of Elvis pictures stored on my computer.

Before you start to think I'm a strange person: I need a few good pictures to put into a movie file for my cousin! He is totally into Elvis' music and everything slightly related to this legendary performer :) So that's why I needs lots of photo's to compare and so on.

Also thank you for your kind words and... well, as I don't want to keep you from your work, I will leave it at this :) Take good care of yourself and by all means: please do send me a preview if possible!

With kind greetings,
Lilian.

P.S. I'm already excited about the next version!

I am experiencing the same on my system. I think it is a bug somewhere else because Word 97 used to take 100% of CPU time on my system - when I was typing. I would like to give you some clue what you can test but I am afraid I don't know what...
I will look into the problem (maybe my programming tool has a bug?), but when the problem does not stop or slow down other programs I think it is not critical.

If you find out something new tell me!

I'll send you a preview but I think it will be the same as with 1.1... I am not sure what is causing it but as I said before it may be the bug in some dll (because Word 97 did the same for me when I was typing...). The good thing is that the program does not really use 100% CPU - if there is another program requesting CPU time it will get it and any of the programs will run slower. And at least this is good...
Look for the 1.2 preview in your mailbox!

But, in my concern, it would be more convenient is it gives an alert when a download is finished...
That is to say, when the big (5) appears on the GUI, send a popup message (no, bad idea... I hate popups!), a systray alert icon (not really discreet...) or best of the best : a single WAV song :-)

A question, btw : any mean to reduce the CPU time usage?

I think it already does... I think it 'beeps' when it is finished. Maybe you don't hear it, becasue this sounds from the speaker are usually not to loud. (it is also possible that I wanted to do this but the I have forgotten...).

> That is to say, when the big (5) appears on the GUI, send a popup message (no, bad idea... I hate popups!), a systray alert icon (not really discreet...) or best of the best : a single WAV song :-)
Yes, a WAV would be a good idea. I will work on that!!


> A question, btw : any mean to reduce the CPU time usage?
This has been discussed a lot here. The point is that if you are running another programs that use a lot of CPU they won't be any slower. My program does not really need this much CPU - there's a bug somewhere in Windows or in programming compiler (WinWord 97 reports using 100% on some machines when typing!). So: yes, I will do some work on this, but it is not critical as the system is not compromised in any way.

And prosper!

OK will try it.

Set up no less than 10 lots of PD running last night ( Which left the pc with about 2% resources left ! ) This morning 4 were still downloading OK, but the other 6 all had Napaka or "Cannot download...." - the thing is, when I click "OK" they all continued happily with their downloads for another 30 mins or so. My question is;- is there a way to build in an option for the prog to authorise the download to continue inspite of this situation. Inother words a sort of "Macro" to click the OK ?
This way at least the complete Download List would be gone through instead of, say , the first 10 out of 250.
Just a thought........

After that delay download of the following image starts and the first one can be opened...
Is it standard behaviour?

No, this should not be standard behaviour! Does this happen with all the sites or just with some? Because the fault could be in the internet connection or the server that is hosting images. It could happen that they don't allow so fast downloads (I doubt that) or that the response time is very big (and you sort of have to wait in queue to get the image you want).
But I am just guessing - I haven't heard that someone has had similar problems. Try another web site, maybe it will be better!

Miha.

Thank you very much for your quick answer. It seems I have solved the problem.
It must have been caused by bad proxy settings. Sorry, my fault.

Well, little off-topic, the side-effects resulting in overlapping controls when resizing Picture Downloader window look a bit strange... Try to take it easy, I am programmer, too, and sometimes unbearable hairsplitter.... ;-)))

I have exactly the same problem.
Iuse Windows XP, and an anonymous proxy program to connect to the internet. I use the same proxy settings in my browsers and everything works fine and fast. But your Picture Downloader produces a very long delay after downloading an image. Perhaps it's a general problem with proxies ? I tested multiple sites. If you need more information, just drop me a mail.

Other than that I must say, a great program. Thanks for it !

This maybe means that the proxy (or my program) makes something wrong when it is supposed to finnish the download. It looks like the two don't understand each other and that my program waits until the timeout and then starts with another image.
I suggest you check your proxy settings and if that doesn't help try to get in touch with Jan Popelka who started this thread. Be sure to keep me posted so I can fix things if something is wrong!

Sorry that it took me so long to reply. Had a lot of stuff to do. Jan Popelka couldn't really solve the problem, he just switched off the proxy in the options. But that is not an option for me, I need the proxy.
Other programs often have "proxy-type" settings, like HTTP-Proxy, Socks4/5 or similar stuff, maybe there is the problem. But I'm quite sure it's in your program, because I _never_ had similar problems with any other program (GetRight, Internet Explorer, Opera, ICQ) with that proxy. If you have any ideas how I could help to solve the problem, please tell me and I'll be glad to do it.

Working with batches/Lists does not succeeds. If I go to the page DownloadZone I can mark one file, click on SavePictures and the file is saved. But, when I mark several files in the list, only the first one will be saved.

However, when I go the page ListDownload, load a list and click on start, then the program jumps to the page DownloadZone. When I click on SavePictures here, nothing happens (the text-field shows 12- ). What is my problem? Perhaps it is important: I work with a proxy.

Thanks for your help in advance,

Hi!

When you use 'List Downlaod' everything should be dome automatically. So when to program jumps to 'Downlod zone' you just do nothing (don't click anything) and it should proceed on its own. That is, of course, if the page that you gave to 'List downlaod' contains links to pages that contain links to pictures. That is the only combination that works! For example, a page with links to pages that contain thumbnails that, if you click on them, open an image (and not a web page). I hope that it doesn't sound too complicated...

Best regards,

Miha.

Greetings,
I must say that I love the concept of this program, but, unfortunately, I am having a bit of a problem. I have connected to a few different sites and got the picture lists, but the list only consists of 13 each time. May I ask what the potential problem is? Timeout?

I read in another post that you could send someone a new version of the prog your are making that could fix the timeout situation, if this is the case. If it fixes it, I would be interested in receiving a copy as well.

Thanks for the good work and making nice products available for those who can't afford to pay,

Hi!

I'm glad that you like the program! I'm sorry to hear that it doesn't work as it should.
I doubt the number of files is connected to the timeout problem. Is it possible that you are downloading from sites that only have 13 images on it? It is also possible that all those sites are made by the same man (or software) and that there is a HTML mistake after the 13th image. That would also cause Picture Downloader to stop finding the links.
So I want you to check the program with another site to see if the problem persists.

A preview is already in your mailbox but I doubt it will fix the problem - rather try the above idea!

Happy Holidays,

Miha Psenica.

The latest version is 1.1, but you are right - the help file is written for 1.2. I am updating help file as I add features to the program and I upload the help file, but the program comes out only when it is stable and with as little bugs as possible.
I upload the help file because I add some new descriptions of the old features also.

If you want you can always email me and ask me for a preview version of the program and I will send it to you!

That's the problem, Seems to me, that the program does not wait the pictures to load fully. I tried to download a couple of them just manually from the links, and they did came just fine. What can I do?

This is caused by the timeout. The server is slow or the pictures are big and the program has a bug here - it does not handle timeouts correctly so it stops downloading after one minute or so and goes to the next picture.
I am working on this problem but for now the best I've come up with was to inclease the timeout time... :-(
I can send you a preview of a new version if you want. Just send me an email and tell me so!

Yes, this is normal in this version, but I am working on a feature that will show only diferent files in the file list.
In this version you can eliminate this by selecting only one copy of the file, not all of them (clicking on the list while holding CTRL button).

I hope this helps!

I've found that the download speed depends on the site and amount of traffic using it at any one time although I haven't experienced any really slow sites just yet.

The URL has to be entered exactly as the thumbnail page has in the address bar. Took me lots of incorrect typing before realising that you could copy and paste the address into the download slot of the prog' and get it right everytime. Having the incorrect address was the reason I experienced the 'disconnected message' on first use.

Hope this helps someone

1) accessing the web by proxy, ALWAYS demands for an access profile, meaning proxy user and password to go out. Its Connection Settings still not have them. <br>
2) usually, the pictures you want to get are thumbnailed or at few levels deeply linked by the main page located in the List Download panel. This app still has too poor settings to do that. <br>
3) completing the box (especially List Download) is very tricky and confused while no help is embedded. It could be much more useful to complete that boxes with some most used settings and values by default and then let the user to follow or re-edit them. Otherwise is very hard to understand how to fill the settings entries.
<br> ...so, still waiting for a really useful pic downloader and success to the master !

For my work? I don't. I do this for fun or because I need the programs myself. I feel good when I see other people using my work and enjoying it. I guess that's something I got from being raised up in a socialistic country.

However, I know it is not nice not to throw my time away (I have to buy an appartment soon) so I made it possible for thankful users to donate a few dollars to me as an appreciation of what I do. You can see the page http://www.mihov.com/eng/donations.html for more details.

And that's really it!

I also have a cable modem and it runs OK. Do you get this message with all the sites (e.g. also with the test site) or just with the one site you tried? I suggest you try other sites and see if the problem disappears.

I think not... If you don't use this for other programs there is no need to use it here. But if you do, you should set up proxy por PD also.

Please try it also with the test page - this one should always work. If it does, then there's something wrong with the pages you're trying to download from (not available or not compatible with the program).

I think I may know what is causing the problem. The timeout limit is set to one minute and it rarely happens that if the image is not downloaded in one minute it just stops and the program starts to download the next image. I'm still looking into that problem and a way to solve it.
Solution #1: don't use timeout -> then the process will stop if the connection gets lost so this is a bad solution
Solution #2: set a bigger time out time -> that's what I've done for a new version (you can get a preview if you e-mail me for it)
Solution #3: The user can choose the time out time -> I think I will add this to the next version since quite a lot of people (including me from time to time) have such problems.

I hope this helps and I really hope that I'll be fast with a new version...

Have fun,

Miha.

could you not do something to only time out when there is no data being downloaded?
something like: check the local filesize of the current file every few seconds and compare it to the last checked filesize, to tell if new data has been coming in or not. timeout if no new data has come in after 60 seconds, and reset the timer when new data starts coming in.
i think this would be a much more versitile solution. i don't know if this is very difficult to program, but i wouldn't think it too hard since MPD already displays the amount of data downloaded for each file.

Perhaps you should read the description of the program first... It clearly says that it is intended for downloading the pictures that are linked from a html page, not for the images, that are embedded in that page. And even for such case you have the advanced feature where you can create your own list of images and download them.
Read the documentation!

It does not say from 'any page' - the program is compatible with one page types and is not with others (yet), of course.
If you find a program useful then use it (as freeware!), if not just uninstall it and let the people who find it useful use it. It's that easy!

I try really hard to offer this program to everyone and I sure don't want to be 'misleading' in any way.

I'll take a look in the code and change it if it's too small. What was the size of your list anyway??

the html file was about 4 megs, linked to somewhere around 53000 files.

not to worry in this case though, i just broke it up into smaller segments and in fact it wasn't finished going through even one segment when i got up this morning!

First of all I want to thank Miha for letting us use his excellent programs for free. This is only a little help for you to make them better :).

1. The CPU goes through the roof.

2. When downloading large lists the program seems to stop downloading randomly. This also happens when downloading from sites with a sub-50 ping with a T3.

3. The program adds "http://" in the textfield for the URL when returning from "lists".

THANK YOU!

And now to the bugs...
> 1. The CPU goes through the roof.
This happens only with some users and I still can't discover what they have in common. It is not dependant on the CPU (it even happens on a 1600 MHz system) nor operating system. But a good thing is that
- the number of such users is very small
- the process is set to 'normal' - that means that of some other programs need the CPU Mihov Picture Downloader will give it to them (and still do the job in the same time).

> 2. When downloading large lists the program seems to stop downloading randomly. This also happens when downloading from sites with a sub-50 ping with a T3.
Actually this problem is all about the timeout - I can't get it right so the program just stops downloading after some time (in version 1.1 this ime is set to 1 minute). I'm working on this.

> 3. The program adds "http://" in the textfield for the URL when returning from "lists".
This is how it should be - which means that you're not supposed to add 'http://' to the URL yourself! But I will create a check for the next version (this check is missing only for the 'List download').

Jpeg error #52 means that there is something wrong with one of your JPEG-files. Please check if the files are really not corrupted (other format or only partially downloaded).

Do you get this with every image or just some images? It is possible that you're trying to resize an image that is corrupted.

Are you having problems with just one page or all of them?
Is it possible that you are entering an URL of the page with *links to pages with images* instead the URL of the page with *links to images*?

Please try another site - if the demo site works, all others (that have links directly to images, not to another html page where you see the image!) should work also.
If this is the case you can try to use the 'Create List' feature. See the help file for more details.

I hope this helps!

Miha Psenica.

Hi!

This doesn't work because of two reasons:
1. They keep track of sessions that are assigned only from them (and don't allow to get the images on other ways).
2. You should know the file names first and manually enter them to a list and then give the list to the program.

I am not intending to add this feature to the program.

You can see another program called Yahoo! Clubs Picture Downloader - http://homepage.uibk.ac.at/~csab3666/pd.htm - it promises to do the work you want.

You can't find a way because there is not any... Picture Downloader is made to download only the images that are linked directly from somewhere. I have been thinking about this and will maybe create a separate module for such pages. Until then, I am working on version 1.1 that will partly solve the problem for some pages. It will be possible to create a list of imeges that have to be downloaded and their file names are combined of characters and numbers (e.g. pic1, pic2, pic3,...). This will be possible even if the page doesn't have links directly to images. The preview of this version is available; mail me if you want it before it is released!

Okay, have this in mind when using this program...

First: don't type the whole adress...bear in mind that the http:// is already there...so just type everything after it. And if you trying to use a password protected site, type everything after the @.

i.e.: if the site your trying to acess is http://login:password@www.protectedsite.com/pictures/

type this in Mihov...

www.protectedsite.com/pictures/

Secondly, don't forget to type the user (login) and pass (password) under SETTINGS and remember to CLICK the Use This Password button in order to work.

I hope it helps...

ps: Great program, Mr. Psenica, the only complain is about the interface that I think could be a little friendlier. Nevertheless, a very useful prog! Thanks!

I have installed the program...I am behind the cable modem but it generated automatic porxy.

The test page works fine.. I get the pictures and then I have to click one by one to download it..

However, when I put a

http://www.terra.es/personal5/baburx/index.htm or
http://playmatelookout.yeahlinks.com/


or anyother link the program does not upload the page and on right link window.. it says
connection closed...

My questions are:

1. What I am doing wrong here and why it does not trigger the downloading on the above mentioned URL
2. Do I have to download each picture one by one.. ? Why in test mode, it did not downloaded all the pictures in to my file automatically.

It might be I am not doing something right... Please hlep me.

Use CTRL click or Shift click to select multiple images. You can select all images by clicking on the button with a * on it.

> 1. What I am doing wrong here and why it does not trigger the downloading on the above mentioned URL
Because if you look into that URLs closely you will see that they use frames ( -> you should give the program the URL of the frame where the pictures are) and that the links are not links to the *pictures*, but to the html files that *contain* pictures. And these are not downloadable by current version ( -> if the file names are 'nice' you can use 'Create list' feature and you will be able to get all the pictures).

> 2. Do I have to download each picture one by one.. ?
Use the select all (*) button as described above and then click on the 'Download pictures' button.


I hope you succeed!

Miha.

I have the downloader ver. 1.1 installed on my System (WinXP Home, P3 1GHz, 256 MB RAM) and I am behind a Proxy Server.
The downloader works really fine, when I type in a homepage. But when I create a list of files, the programm loads down files of the same size.
This files cannot be viewed. I am absolutely sure, that the links to the pictures are working.

Can anyone please help me??

Usually this means that the program was tricked into thinking that it is downloading an image (the address ends with jpg for example) but in fact the file is a HTML file (this happens a lot when you get a 404 Page not found error - but it can happen also when the owners of the web site try to 'hide' the contents of the page from downloaders).
If you look at the files with Notepad you'll see (english) text, not just some strange characters.

> I am absolutely sure, that the links to the pictures are working.
Can you post a link then?

I hope I had :-)

  Rename Files feature and 'save to folder' browser    hits: 1015

In some websites, the pictures are using the same file same. When downloading the pictures, the old file in the same folder will be replaced by the new one. Therefore, we need to rename it manually. I suggest the picture downloader should have the renaming feature to overcome this problem.
A 'Browse' should provided for ease to save the picture in a folder.
thanks.

Hi!

At the time you can use 'add prefix' function. Enter some string, e.g. 'new' to a box above 'Save pictures' button. The new images will be saved as new01.jpg, new02.jpg,... if the original files were 01.jpg, 02.jpg,...
I am also thinking of renaming feature, but that'll take a little more time so I guess I won't add it soon :-(

Browsing: in the next version or one after that! I think that's missing also...

Thanks for everything,

Miha.

Hi!

The problem is in the filename. The program takes the whole string after the last / as the filename, but it is not possible to save a file with a filename that contains the '?' sign.
I am working on this and I hope such pages will work with the new version...

Have fun,

Miha.

Hi!

The program is free to use and doesn't need a password or anything else to work. It is licensec as 'freeware', which meanse that you can use it free of charge give it to other so they may use it, too.
So: the program works without password!

I am having the same problems as everyone else, I can not get it to load image file from pages. Yes they have linked images, yes I have tried the test ,but I do not need the images from the test. Why not just tell us how it works? Why not issue English language Help on one of these pages. If it is free why not have a web page with the EXACT help reference? Thank you, I could really use this program for my work and I appreciate that it is free but I can not get it to function.

There are several thousand users wordwide who can use this program without any trouble: could someone be so kind to write the EXACT help? I really try, but it seems that for some users it still isn't enough....
Sorry David, I did my best!

You have to change it every time you run the program... I've heard that saving the folder will be possible in the next version!

Zivjo!

Najprej drugo vprasanje: star sem 25 let.
Za igrico bi se pa tezko zmenila, saj delam programcke le za svoj hobi, in jih moram tudi zares potrebovati, da se lotim izdelave. Tako da zaenkrat sploh ne bi dajal odgovora o ceni...
Se to: sporocila v furumu bere vecina ljudi iz tujine, ki ne znajo slovensko, zato se enkrat povdarjam, da je URADNI JEZIK ANGLESKI! -> (ne vprasanj v slovenscini pisat)

Pozdrav.
