Advanced Feature: Domain Rules
Domain Rules can be used to fine tune limits for specific domains, filename-patterns and much more.
Typically you will either use them to limit all downloads of one host or allow exceeding the global number of simultaneous downloads for one host.
These rules will not magically speed-up your downloads!
You can find them under Settings -> Advanced Settings -> General Settings: Domain Rules
Example json structure of such rules:
[{"enabled" : false,"pluginPattern" : null,"domainPattern" : ".*jdownloader\\.org","maxSimultanDownloads" : 20,"accountPattern" : "myUsername","allowToExceedTheGlobalLimit" : false,"filenamePattern" : "\\.png$"}]
Example rule: allow all hosts to exceed the global limit:
[ {"domainPattern" : ".+","enabled" : true,"maxSimultanDownloads" : 21,"allowToExceedTheGlobalLimit" : true} ]
Example rule: limit a single host to max. 1 download:
[ {"domainPattern" : "jdownloader\\.org","enabled" : true,"maxSimultanDownloads" : 1,"allowToExceedTheGlobalLimit" : false} ]
