Show Downloads and Feeds at the Same Time

CraigT

Currently we can see the contents of Feeds or Downloads. Each is mutually exclusive. I can see one or the other. I would like to see them at the same time.

Maybe this helps. If you put

Maybe this helps. If you put all your feeds in a folder and click on that you can see all news of all feeds at once.
A folder can be created by pressing Ctrl+Shift+N.

Thanks for the suggestion

Thanks for the suggestion Sheldon, but I want to see the News feed and Downloads at the same time.

This request is a work-around

This request is a work-around for a problem with downloads:

If the download problem is fixed, this feature becomes unnecessary.

In my opinion using QuiteRss

In my opinion using QuiteRss for Downloads isn't a good idea at all.
Instead of this a common download manager.like JDownloader is a much better approach.
This would also solve all the related issues you mentioned.

JDownloader doesn't work with

JDownloader doesn't work with RSS feeds, does it?

Sheldon
Oh yes it does properly! I

Oh yes it does properly! I use it on a daily base.
Just copy the download link to the clipboard. JDownloader will grab it and do the rest.
The advantage of this approach is that you can handle a bunch of downloads at once and much safer..
To achieve that funcy-dom and his team would have a lot of work to do.
But why should they. The solution already exists. You don't have to develop a new wheel! Smile
Therefor QuiteRSS is a feed manager not a download manager.

I agree that QuiteRSS doesn't

I agree that QuiteRSS doesn't need to have all the functions of a full-blown download manager. I don't need all the functions of a download manager like pause, resume, etc. I also don't want to have Java and another application open and do copy and pasting just to simply download links already in QuiteRSS. It would be simple to put the clicked link in a queue to download so users don't need to sit and wait and manually and visually look for confirmation that the download started.
