Please Increase Timeout and Error Retries

[FloatingSunfish]

Hi Red Squirrel, I love using Batoto Downloader but due to occasional issues with my internet connection I sometimes end up with chapters that are missing 1, 2 or more pages.

I would like to request to be able to change the number of Connection and Read Timeouts from 60 to 99, and Download Error Retries from 9 to 99 -- or possibly an Infinite Retry option if it's not too much trouble so chapter pages will always be complete -- I don't mind if it takes a bit longer to download since that's better than having to manually add the missing pages myself (which I always end up doing).

I really hope you can implement this request soon, as this is one of my favorite Manga Downloaders because it's better at getting and sorting chapter links than most other free manga downloaders out there.

Keep up the good work! :)

I have no problem to increase those limits in next version but however they exist because there are some pages that are totally offline on bato.to and to avoid server issues. So if you set an "infinite retry" you could go in a loop that will never end (for example when the image is offline and will not return despite how many times you try to get it xD) bringing to a application freeze. Same thing would happen in case of any bato.to server temporary error.

So before to give the fault to your internet connection please check if the images of the pages that have not been downloaded are really online, maybe they are just offline ;)

Thanks for replying! I had no idea such an option could potentially cause problems for bato.to's servers :P -- but the 99 limit will still be nice to have.

Oh, and the images are actually online as I had to manually download them to fill in the gaps during download. Have yet to encounter a scenario where the images weren't online. :)

I think some large images always fail to load because my connection's so slow the timeout is reached even though it's still downloading. Could we have a 'No Timeout' option instead, for those whose connections sometimes become super-slow due to ISP issues? It can just be a checkbox thing so people can turn it off if they don't need it.

Guess I'll wait for the next release then! And thanks again!

Awesome! Thank you very much for implementing my requests so quickly! :)

I'll be trying it out later! Floating Sunfish out! :D

Works great! Thanks a lot, Red Squirrel! ;)
