When I set FlashGot's Download Manager option to (Browser Built In), and I use FlashGot Selection or FlashGot All, I get the following links filter dialog: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19234057/filterdialog.png

However, when I set it to wget, a wget instance is immediately launched for each link, and no links filter dialog appears.

I am running FlashGot 1.5.3 and my config for wget is: If there's any more information you need, or if there's anything I should test, please let me know.

It's because you don't specify the destination folder path parameter, which is needed to trigger the choice dialog.
Please try with

Ah, that does the trick, thanks!

I previously had issues with wget saving downloads to the wrong directory, so wound up explicitly specifying the path in the -O parameter.

Only problem now is that when a URL results in a 302 redirect, wget ignores the -O parameter and uses the last component of the new URL. This happens with both [ URL] and [--input-file=UFILE] so I suspect it's a wget issue. Then again, according to the wget documentation, the -O argument does not do what we think it does anyway, especially when used with --input-file. I'll have to play around some more, maybe upgrade my wget 1.10.1 setup to something newer.

Thanks again.

Updating wget to 1.14 from https://code.google.com/p/osspack32/dow ... ist?q=wget seems to have done the trick to resolve the redirect filename issue.
