Multi Debrid Downloader

Desktop downloader with fast queue management, automatic extraction, and robust error handling.

Why this tool?

• Familiar download-manager workflow: collect links, start, pause, resume, and finish cleanly.
• Multiple debrid providers in one app, including automatic fallback.
• Built for stability with large queues: session persistence, reconnect handling, resume support, and integrity verification.

Core features

Queue and download engine

• Package-based queue with file status, progress, ETA, speed, and retry counters.
• Start, pause, stop, and cancel for both single items and full packages.
• Multi-select via Ctrl+Click for batch operations on packages and items.
• Duplicate handling when adding links: keep, skip, or overwrite.
• Session recovery after restart, including optional auto-resume.
• Circuit breaker with escalating backoff cooldowns to handle provider outages gracefully.

Debrid and link handling

• Supported providers: realdebrid, megadebrid, bestdebrid, alldebrid.
• Configurable provider order: primary + secondary + tertiary.
• Optional automatic fallback to alternative providers on failures.
• .dlc import via file picker and drag-and-drop.

Extraction, cleanup, and quality

• JVM-based extraction backend using SevenZipJBinding + Zip4j (supports RAR, 7z, ZIP, and more).
• Automatic fallback to legacy UnRAR/7z CLI tools when JVM is unavailable.
• Auto-extract with separate target directory and conflict strategies.
• Hybrid extraction: simultaneous downloading and extracting with smart I/O priority throttling.
• Nested extraction: archives within archives are automatically extracted (one level deep).
• Pre-extraction disk space validation to prevent incomplete extracts.
• Right-click "Extract now" on any package with at least one completed item.
• Post-download integrity checks (CRC32, MD5, SHA1) with auto-retry on failures.
• Completed-item cleanup policy: never, immediate, on_start, package_done.
• Optional removal of link artifacts and sample files after extraction.

Auto-rename

• Automatic renaming of extracted files based on series/episode patterns.
• Multi-episode token parsing for batch renames.

UI and progress

• Visual progress bars with percentage overlay for packages and individual items.
• Real-time bandwidth chart showing current download speeds.
• Persistent download counters: all-time totals and per-session statistics.
• Download history for completed packages.
• Vertical sidebar with organized settings tabs.
• Hoster display showing both the original source and the debrid provider used.

Convenience and automation

• Clipboard watcher for automatic link detection.
• Minimize-to-tray with tray menu controls.
• Speed limits globally or per download.
• Bandwidth schedules for time-based speed profiles.
• Built-in auto-updater via git.24-music.de Releases.
• Long path support (>260 characters) on Windows.

NPM scripts

Command	Description
npm run dev	Starts main process, renderer, and Electron in dev mode
npm run build	Builds main and renderer bundles
npm run start	Starts the app locally in production mode
npm test	Runs Vitest unit tests
npm run self-check	Runs integrated end-to-end self-checks
npm run release:win	Creates Windows installer and portable build
npm run release:gitea -- <version> [notes]	One-command version bump + build + tag + release upload to git.24-music.de
npm run release:codeberg -- <version> [notes]	Legacy path for old Codeberg workflow

One-command git.24-music release

npm run release:gitea -- 1.6.31 "- Maintenance update"

This command will:

1. Bump package.json version.
2. Build setup/portable artifacts (npm run release:win).
3. Commit and push main to your git.24-music.de remote.
4. Create and push tag v<version>.
5. Create/update the Gitea release and upload required assets.

Required once before release:

git remote add gitea https://git.24-music.de/<user>/<repo>.git

PowerShell token setup:

$env:GITEA_TOKEN="<dein-token>"

Typical workflow

1. Add provider tokens in Settings.
2. Paste/import links or .dlc containers.
3. Optionally set package names, target folders, extraction, and cleanup rules.
4. Start the queue and monitor progress in the Downloads tab.
5. Review integrity results and summary after completion.

Project structure

• src/main - Electron main process, queue/download/provider logic
• src/preload - secure IPC bridge between main and renderer
• src/renderer - React UI
• src/shared - shared types and IPC contracts
• tests - unit tests and self-check tests
• resources/extractor-jvm - SevenZipJBinding + Zip4j sidecar JAR and native libraries

Data and logs

The app stores runtime files in Electron's userData directory, including:

• rd_downloader_config.json
• rd_session_state.json
• rd_downloader.log

Troubleshooting

• Download does not start: verify token and selected provider in Settings.
• Extraction fails: check archive passwords, JVM runtime (resources/extractor-jvm), or force legacy mode with RD_EXTRACT_BACKEND=legacy.
• Very slow downloads: check active speed limit and bandwidth schedules.
• Unexpected interruptions: enable reconnect and fallback providers.
• Stalled downloads: the app auto-detects stalls within 10 seconds and retries automatically.
