The new WHS-Download Manager is on the way.
One of the new features ist the ProgressBar in the Download Pool.

In version 3.2, it is possible to download multiple files at once. If the filehoster supports it
(most do on Premium Accounts), you can get up to 10 parallel downloads in the Download Pool.
Another criteria for the parallel downloads is the CPU utilization. If the CPU utilization is very low,
the WHS-Download Manager starts another Download in the pool (up to 10). If the CPU
utilization is very high (Backup,Stream ...) though, the WHS-Download Manager decreases the possible parallel
download number (down to 1). The technique behind this is ThreadPooling.
The ProgressBar in the Listview shows the parallel download progress, with the filesize and the completed size.
There are three possible color-states:
- Light Blue: Download is in progress
- Green: Download finished successfully
- Red: Download error/canceled
Look out for the upcoming new features on the next release in this blog!
