Description from store
If you like the archive.org internet library and you have ever tried to download hunderts of books or magazines one by one, you know what I mean. Why not to download your favorite files with a few clicks? That's why you should install this extension.
Features:
* Scan for download links on search results page or collection page
* Show stats about available file types
* Get list of links to import by external download managers
* Download selected files using chrome downloader
How to use:
After install the downloader icon is gray.
Go to archive.org collection page eg https://archive.org/details/ares_magazine - now the icon is green, click on it to scan for possible files. When scan is completed select required extension eg. pdf and you will see related resources ready to download. You can get only txt files with a list of download links (to import in your favorite downloader) or you can choose "start download" to use chrome download manager.

- (2021-04-26) Derek Farn: Can't not download. Only show empty download format.
- (2021-04-06) Laurel Sporter: Practically useless. It requires you to select file types, but only tries to show a handful of them, which don't include the file types that make up the content of may collections, like zip.
- (2021-01-28) Johnny Sun: Thank you
- (2020-12-28) Adrien DESPLANQUES: Does not seem to list zip files. It proposes me to download picture files only...
- (2020-11-10) Erik McCartney: Worked very well on a collection of 680 PDF files. Allows you to choose which file types to download based on what's available. Just ensure the files are going where you want them to, and uncheck "Ask each time before downloading"
- (2020-10-12) Naveen Garla: Could download 148 very old books with a single click. Great work. Thanks to the developer(s).
- (2020-09-14) Surita Mantinubra: Excellent - does the job
- (2019-07-11) 1 2: Nagyon jó
- (2019-07-11) Boris Piwowarsky: Does not download bigger collections and seems to be limited to a max of 750 items. The rest of a bigger collection will just be missing.
- (2019-05-06) ITF Individual Tuning: works not
- (2019-04-25) William Mize: This is a ridiculously helpful plug in; absolutely love it, but it's unforgiving and difficult to maneuver if, like me, you happen to close your window during the mass downloading. The plug-in thinks that you haven't downloaded anything and wants you to start the whole process over again. It would be very handy if the developer would enable bulk unchecking and the ability to notice duplicates or already downloaded files in the destination folder. Somehow just make it easier to use if you're clumsy like me. Thank you for a great extension!
- (2019-04-12) Rick McQuay: Does exactly what it is supposed to do. Rare these days.
- (2019-04-09) Bernhard Alber: i mean it works
- (2019-04-04) Андрей Перевёрткин: Can't download collections which are just a big bunch of eg. .zip files. Useless.
- (2019-03-23) Alexa Tilbrook: Heck yeah. I love it that you can also get an input file for CLI (command line interface) downloaders like good ol' GNU WGET, instead of using Chrome's download manager (and since I have it set to "ask where to save each file" in chrome://settings, for 700+ files, that can be a pain to click "save" 700+ times)... now I can download collections of old TRS-80 manuals. I so wanna buy the dev a beer for an ingenious solution, cuz the instructions on how to obtain such a list on the Internet Archive blog is so confusing at best.
- (2019-03-10) Stuart McLean: Really good extension, performs flawlessly and does exactly what it says it will. Indispensable addition for easily downloading a few magazines to read offline when on holiday.
- (2019-01-30) Alan Williamson: This is a wonderful extension that does what it claims to do. Works flawlessly and I have snagged a few collections of my childhood for offline reading.

Using Chrome 98.0.4758.102 (Official Build) (64-bit), the get-links.txt link doesn't work. Presumably it's passing a blob link to download, but none starts. - (2021-09-20, v:1.0.4) Joop van der Velden: High number of pageviews caused by archive.org downloader plugin

Last few months i had very serieus issues being temporary banned / disabled at various web sites, because of high numbers of pageviews. I suspect the archive.org downloader being the cause of this. I could reproduce the issue at a certain webshop, and after disabling the archive.org downloader i cannot reproduce it anymore. - (2021-08-31, v:1.0.4) Antonio García: JPG files
Hello, when you try to download JPG files it doesn't discriminate between "Item Title" and "JPEG", downloading always the first one when you really want to download the higher quality JPEG. Would it be possible to put some option to separate those two types of files? Thank you. - (2021-08-21, v:1.0.4) Paolo Spangher: Not detecting 7z files
Es: https://archive.org/details/rr-nintendo-wii-e2 Extension doesn't detect files correctly. Thanks, Paolo - (2021-05-15, v:1.0.4) Shawn Flanagan: Downloads not working
Hello, I was turned on to this by a friend. Very powerful. However recently it stopped working? Do you know if this is a break from an Update? I've tried everything I'm able to think of, but I am unable to get it to run again on any of the collections I have tried. Thank for your help, and for your program. - (2021-01-07, v:1.0.4) Alex Andra: digital books
can I download images from loaned digital books? Thanks. - (2020-10-22, v:1.0.4) Jean B: Let user choose file extension
Hello, Your extension is a great idea but I'm looking for specific file types. Can you add an option to let the user choose which extension he wants to download? Thanks - (2020-09-04, v:1.0.4) Frank Kejol: Not detecting files without extension
Like title says its not detecting files without extension ex. https://archive.org/search.php?query="Cd+action"&and%5B%5D=mediatype%3A"texts"&and%5B%5D=mediatype%3A"software"&sort=date https://archive.org/download/cdrom-cdaction07b - (2020-08-08, v:1.0.4) keram: It doesn't work
The icon doesn't change to green and there is nothing happening. How to make it work? Installed on Chrome Version 84.0.4147.105 - (2020-07-26, v:1.0.4) Michael Levin: It seems to be limited to 500 items?
Hello, it works fine but under File Formats, it says checking ... out of 500 links. Is 500 a hard limit - I know the Archive has more files matching my description on the page. How can I get it to get all the search results? - (2019-04-01, v:1.0.4) Margaret Jessup: Verification of downloads
Hi, I am downloading my entire collection from the IA: https://archive.org/details/smithcollege%26tab=about&tab=collection Is there any way to verify that I am getting all the files in my download? Either via checksums or a file count per item? Thanks. - (2018-08-03, v:1.0.4) ACOB ACastleofBooks: only low quality versions downloaded
If I go to the page, I can download a much higher quality version than when I use the downloader. Is there a setting I'm missing?
