FlashGet1.50 new features new experience

Once upon a time, when you mentioned the download tool, you will think of FlashGet (Internet Express), which facilitates the download management, multi-threaded simultaneous download function conquers the vast majority of worms, and becomes their mind The preferred tool in the download tool. However, I don’t know why. In the past two years after FG released 1.40, I have never seen any new version of the author. In today’s rapid development of the network, the status of FG has been threatened by audio and video transmission belts. After a long silence, the author of FG finally released FlashGet 1.50 Beta1! What improvements have been made to the new version? The official promotion is to support the MMS protocol, support the command line to add download tasks, improve the order of adding tasks to download Ftp directory and fix some bugs. For us, the most useful improvement is to support the MMS streaming protocol! After a period of trials, how can this new feature work? Please see below:

New Feature One:

Have you ever found a MV that you have been looking for on the Internet for a long time, but you only find that FG does not support MMS when you download it. Happening? This annoying problem will be solved in the new FG! Just add the MMS address to FG and you can download the MMS streaming file just like you would download a regular file! However, perhaps because of the newly added features, although 1.5B supports MMS streaming downloads, we found that FG can't get the exact address of MMS itself. If you want to download an online movie, you must find it accurate. The address (for example: mms://xxx.xxx.xxx/xx.wmv), and entering the MMS address in the IE address bar will not automatically call FG to download. (At this point, the audio and video tape is better.) I hope the author can improve this problem in the official version.

New Feature 2:

In 1.50, you can use the command line to add download tasks, for example:

This will flashget as long as you open FG. The address after the exe is added to the download task. This function is not very important. The people who use it are not expected to be many...

Summary:

After the trial, the new FG gives us a feeling that it is not very exciting. The function is to support the MMS protocol is more practical, but it is still not perfect, and only supports MMS, and the support is not very good, can not support another popular streaming media protocol - RTSP. However, since the author has re-emerged, maybe it will be added in the new beta or the official version soon?
