Search for alternate files in a folder
Serching for alternate download locations for all files in a folder. And an option in settings for the time betwean each file search (to prevent search spam).
Half of this is in oDC, the search-part, not the setting-thing to enter the time betwean the searches....

I know about the "Automatically search for alternates" and i have that enebled, but it isn't as effective as i want it to be. I want an alternative in the right-click menu to search for alternates in the folder, as I get if i right-click a file. That way I dont need to search for alternates to every file in the folder, or wait for the automatick search.....

What I mean is: in my download queue, I want to be able to right-click a folder, get the alternative to "search for alternates", and it starts to search for alternates for all the files in that folder right away, maybe you could say that it starts the "Automatically search for alternates" for that folder..... to put that folder "first in queue for autoserach"......

I think he wants to be able to kick off a search for alternates on all entries in a folder. Only spaced out enough so that he doesn't get kicked.
Sidenote: some hubs have search control themselves, and so DC++ can't rely entirely on its internal search spam criteria to figure out how to space out search requests.

What he wants is:
- Right click on a folder (for example MP3 music: "Madonna - Greatest Hits") in the download queue! Then there appiers a window which allow him to search for alternatives: 1.) All files in this folder 2.) the folder name
(Because it sucks a lot to search for every file manual, or wait for the automatic search)
But isn`t this implented yet??? (the searching for the whole folder)
(Sorry 4 my bad english)

It is implemented in oDC, try to install and look how int works. But the thing is, I want it in DC++. In oDC it just searches for the alternate files without a searchwindow popping up, but that doesnt matter, the only thing I want is the feature, with or withot a popup, or eaven better, to be able to chose to have a popup or not, and be able to set the time betwean the searches (oDC does not have the time-setting).
Everybody knows what we are talking about now?
