Add retrying to download failures
XAMPPRocky opened this issue · 5 comments
Hello again 🙂 Currently giantbomb-show-dl when a download fail will immediately proceed to the next video. It would be nice if depending on the error (when it is a network error and not something like #30) that the tool tried to download the same video again.
Additionally I don't know if the giant bomb CDN supports multi-part downloads, but as part of retrying it would be great if it could reuse the part its already downloaded, making it quicker to download and reducing overall network traffic.
This would indeed be a nice feature, but probably not something I have time to look at soon. I will keep for when I have time in the future
Resuming of interrupted downloads (in the next run) is now implemented, retrying will be a future update.
Thank you again for improving this tool 🙂
@XAMPPRocky Version 2.4.0 now includes retries, by default it will retry 2 times after a failure. Can be configured with --retries options
Great thank you again for adding these improvements, can't wait to continue archiving with them 🙏
