Do it is possibile to add a "Placeholders" with the name file that i see in status bar?

Do it is possibile to choice the download manager in the name file of status bar?

If I use FlashGot Media on that link with the "Built-in" download manager FlashGot "extrapolates" a good filename, "Amazing_Goalkeeper_Goal_Video.flv".

Do it is possibile to add a "Placeholders" with the name file that i see in status bar?

Actually there is a [FNAME] placeholder which translates to the "extrapolated" file name, even though it's not shown in the placeholders list (I'm fixing this in next release).
Using it ([-o FNAME]), you can build a cURL template which saves the video with the good file name, like explained here: http://flashgot.net/features#custom_curl

Not sure about what you mean here...

An aside, should FNAME be included in the Placeholders dropdown?

What do you mean? It's working fine for me with any file. Could you show me one which fails for you?

f.e.:
i use:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
/c start /B [/D FOLDER] c:\Programmi\Curl\curl [-o FNAME] i download from [url]http://www.foobar ... /foo_jesus
it not work.
if i instead use:
/c start /B [/D FOLDER] c:\Programmi\Curl\curl -o ciao [URL]
it work.

[Giorgio Maone]

It's saving a "foo_jesus" 4KB file for me with thjis template:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
/C start [/D FOLDER] curl -L -O [-o FNAME] [--referer REFERER] [-b COOKIE] [-d POST] [URL]

But now is not working in YouTube, f.e.:

Nice clip .

If you select (Browser Built In) does it download for you?

It could be the cUrl does not work with a direct Youtube link?

(Net Transport does not - now? <I get a HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden when downloading direct. Though when a foreign site links to a Youtube video, I can download with Net Transport>. Seems to me that I have downloaded from there in the past. Looking in logs on this computer, perhaps Oct. 2007 it did work. Orbit & Browser Built In do successfully down from Youtube.)

[Giorgio Maone]

Unfortunately the problem is cURL always giving precedence to "-O" over "-o".
Therefore if you specify "-O" some Youtube movies fail (because cURL extrapolates a "bad" name), while if you don't and it's not a media download (thus no FNAME is extrapolated by FlashGot) the download is tunneled to standard out.

I'll try to figure out a solution in next release.
