Oct 16, 2009 2:07pm twsl User	thanks kodak, works for me too!

Oct 17, 2009 9:56am Lucumo User	Doesn't work with the german "version" of rapidshare.com. I changed some lines but the script just doesn't want to refresh the page. Wanted to change the page to the US version but it seems to be impossible without a proxy.

Oct 17, 2009 5:09pm parn User	Kodak's solution works for me too! rock on man

Oct 18, 2009 12:53pm wyoung User	This works for me, and I don't need to do the "hideAd" workaround. Find the following: document.body.childNodes[1].childNodes[3].style.display = "none"; // rapidshare logo document.body.childNodes[1].childNodes[1].style.display = "none"; // hauptmenue Change to the following: document.body.childNodes[3].childNodes[3].style.display = "none"; // rapidshare logo document.body.childNodes[3].childNodes[1].style.display = "none"; // hauptmenue

Oct 18, 2009 2:11pm Kodak User	iampete: maybe it is good idea to surround ad hiding invocation in try...catch block? it won't stop main functionality next time ad object model changes

Oct 18, 2009 3:03pm doji User	thanks iampete & Kodak, great script & fantastic circumvention... i'm out to play now ;-)

Oct 18, 2009 3:55pm iC3m@N User	I'm Sorry Bt, I'm New With The Forum And I Am Facing A Prob .... My Rapidshare Autowait Stop Working Suddenly. Other Scripts Like Hotfile Auto Download is Working But This one is Not. I Tried Almost Everything From Re-Installing The Script To Reinstalling The OS. A Reply Will Be Appreciated. Thank You.

Oct 18, 2009 8:33pm Chicago_gang... Scriptwright	Reinstalling the OS? Are you serious? See the above posts: http://userscripts.org/topics/19285?page=3#post...

Oct 19, 2009 9:10pm mattski User	Kodak's simple fix worked for me. Thanks!

Oct 19, 2009 11:42pm Jeroenz0r Scriptwright	Thanks, working great! :D

Oct 20, 2009 1:06am iampete Script's Author	hi.. i have updated the script.. finaly - sorry for the delay, i was realy busy thanks to Kodak for the tip with try catch.. from now on any errors in "hide ad" feature should not break the whole script - at worst you would just see the ads again.. And speaking of which - i have corrected the hide ad feature to work again with the changed rapidshare site. It seems to be working again.. And that's still not all - i have included one of the wishes from wishlist (see other thread) - the number of seconds is now being displayed at the begining of the tab title hope you like it;-) -PeTe

Oct 20, 2009 1:16am iampete Script's Author	Btw.. does anyone know how can I make userscipts to send me email alerts whenever someone comments in this thread? "Watch topic" at the top doesn't do the trick.. and Btw #2 - have you noticed?? Rapidshare AutoWait is now the the best rated script at all with 18 reviews, and all 5 stars - thanks to you guys

Oct 20, 2009 2:54am Chicago_gang... Scriptwright	I think the only way is to bookmark the comments page (recent posts on your scripts) or the monitored topics page (recent posts on your monitored topics) and/or subscribe to one of their RSS feeds.

Oct 21, 2009 4:45am Len White User	Hi iampete, awesome coding!!! i'm a coder myself and have been trying to figure out a way to do this, then stumbled upon greasemonkey and you had already done it, so kudos! One suggestion, how hard do you think it would be to tie into FoxyProxy or change mozilla's proxy information between each download to help eliminate the 15 minute wait.. i have been using ssh -CD with a few shell boxes and swap the ports back and forth between downloads so i never have to wait it was just clicking shit

Oct 21, 2009 7:58pm lesnar User	best rapidshare script to-date

Oct 27, 2009 9:17am teknoallah423 User	this script ROCKS Hardcore. keep up the good work. you have restored sanity to me with out premium

Oct 31, 2009 7:07pm hulk007 User	hi, ur script is good, but it is still showing this error Currently a lot of users are downloading files. Please try again in 2 minutes or become a Premium member. good thing is i don't have to keep refreshing the rapidshare page after every 2 minutes, but if u can resolve this issue, it will be a great help. and one thing more ur countdown time is 60 sec, but if the the file size is greater than 100 mb than rapidshare wait time also increases, than when ur counter will reach 0, rapishare will still be counting and the page will be refreshed and it will start counting again. although i haven't tried this but thought just crossed my mind. thanks once again P.S: I downloaded ur latest version.

Nov 1, 2009 5:49pm iampete Script's Author	Hi.. unfortunately the only thing you can do about the error "Currently a lot of users are downloading files. Please try again in 2 minutes or become a Premium member." is to wait. This error indicates that there are a lot of users downloading at the moment and rapidshare servers are overloaded. Also there is one more error that people started getting more and more often lately: "This file can only be downloaded by becoming a Premium user" which I am not entirely sure what it means. Either the uploader has to move the file to "collectors zone" or maybe you only need to wait.. i don't know.. as for the 60 second countdown.. have you experienced this or are you only assuming? because this is already taken care of in the script - it waits the correct number of seconds. 60 is only between refreshes for example when there is another download in progress.

Nov 1, 2009 7:46pm hulk007 User	hi, yesterday i downloaded 150mb file and the counter automatically taken 90sec, its working great . thanks for the reply..... great work

Nov 2, 2009 6:51am Kodak User	Because of "Currently a lot of users are downloading files. Please try again in 2 minutes or become a Premium member." I use 120 sec as a default refresh rate

Nov 6, 2009 11:57pm steve8sviq User	2 small bugs 1) Sometimes after a download has started, the counter will stay at "0:00 ..." and not switch over to "Success..." This is inconvenient because user then has to check downloads and make sure that a tab with "0:00" was downloaded before closing. 2) When the counter resets, i.e. it hits zero then starts up at 120seconds again, it says "success..." momentarily before starting to countdown again. It would be nice if "success" only showed up after a download has started. Because it flashes momentarily user has to watch the tab for a moment before closing to make sure it doesn't revert to another countdown.

Nov 7, 2009 12:17pm Kodak User	steve: ad1) can you somehow monitor javacript console to see whether there are any error in such situation; i have no idea why it is happening to you; i had no such occureence ad) the question is what was the rs error message/info during that countdown - sometimes it is simply overcrowder have you tried autoclose mentioned some topics above?

Nov 8, 2009 10:22am Kodak User	hmm looks like it happened to me also; it probably takes place only when you open couple of rs links simultanously and only one of them gets through; hm it can be tricky to fix it as I do not see a possible feedback for posting final form... it is probably the high time to think about some between-tabs synchronisation - maybe using a cookie?

Nov 8, 2009 6:21pm steve8sviq User	1) i'll try monitoring. It only happens once in a while, maybe 1 out of 20 downloads 2) i tried using autoclose but had to quickly disable it. autoclose ends up closing all the tabs even when downloads haven't started. it seems to be caused by the way "success..." temporarily shows up between count cycle resets. kodak, since you are more actively updating the script, have you considered creating a branch until the original author returns?

Nov 8, 2009 6:25pm steve8sviq User	i'm glad you were able to see problem also. in regards to solutions, i used to use extension: skipscreen. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/... it is inferior to Rapidshare AutoWait because skipscreen has its own bugs, but i've never experienced the two bugs i mentioned (stuck at 0:00 and flashing "success" between count cycles). perhaps looking at skipscreen implementation can give you some ideas
