Sorry for not replying, I didn't see your post. I downloaded and watched the video you posted and it looks like DownloadStudio is not finding your login cookie for FileSonic, when I typed the url from the video into DownloadStudio I got (http://www.flickr.com/photos/43977020@N07/5490228177/). Did you check the box 'Remember me' when you logged in to FileSonic in Firefox? If you didn't check the box then DownloadStudio cannot find your cookie.
-
thanks for your reply.
Yes, I've checked the remember me box.
I thought it may be something with the browser and tested it in internet explorer and then Maxthon3.
In all cases I got the same result. A 37KB bad Hash file is downloaded.
any other advice is much appreciated.

Do you have 'Tools->Options->Connection->HTTP->Use Cookies to assist downloading files from web servers' checked in DownloadStudio? If you look at the job conversation from the download can you see an entry 'Cookie: ' and does it contain 'PHPSESSID='?
-
yes, the checkbox you mentioned is already checked. Actually I'm downloading from Hotfile and Rapidshare without any problem.
I can see Cookie under Job conversation. Here's an image :
the cookie line reads as following:
> 2011/03/03 18:49:28 Cookie: __utma=26991146.1923830067.1296519366.1296519366.1 296519366.1;__utmz=26991146.1296519366.1.1.utmcsr= ********|utmccn=(referral)|utmcmd=referral|utmcct=/viewtopic.php
thank you for your time

It looks like your cookie is missing PHPSESSID=, this is required to download from FileSonic. Go to Firefox and open 'Options' then go to the 'Privacy' tab and click the link 'remove individual cookies', you will be able to search for 'FileSonic' cookies . The 'Expires:' date for PHPSESSID should not read 'when I close my browser' it should be a date.
-
The 'Expires:' date for PHPSESSID is not 'When I close my browser'.
It's 2011/03/18 8:31:00
May I ask where you live?
I'm in Japan (though I'm not a Japanese )
and when I click a link to download a file, http://www.filesonic.com/******** changes to http://www.filesonic.jp/******
even if I type filesonic.com in firefox/internet explorer addressbar, I'm redirected to filesonic.jp
you posted a link to a movie in your previous post which the links reads as filesonic.com/******
when I clicked this link, the download link changed to filsonic.jp/**** and the download started.
if you refer to my screen captures above, you'll see that most of them are .jp and not .com
but all of your screen captures shows the links as .com
Now this is my guess.
filesonic has several server worldwide. No matter on which server a file is uploaded, there's a program which translate the address.
Now this is where DownloadStudio's trapped. Download studio tries to download the actual address that is typed or pasted in download job.
Where it should be translated to it's actual address.
Because of your location, the address (****.com/****) happens to be used for downloading and you have no problem.
But for those who have to download via servers around the world (.jp - .ko - .ru ......), downloadstudio fails to grab the link.
I hope you get my point.
But JDownloader is not a cookie dependent download manager. It actually asks me for my login info to download a file (Settings-Host-Premium).
I believe JDownloader uses these info to connect to filesonic and receive the correct location of the files to be downloaded.
Even when I'm not logged in to my account to filesonic, and filesonic's cookie is deleted, I can download from filesonic with JDownloaded.
I'll be waiting for a day that downloadstudio finds a solution for downloading files from shared server without needing a cookie.

I live in Australia.
I setup a Japanese proxy server and tested the filesonic downloads and if I am logged into filesonic.jp in my browser and I try and add a url for www.filesonic.com it does not resolve correctly. If I change the download url to use filesonic.jp then the download works, http://filesonic.jp/file/r000216945/...1.14.part4.rar. Can you try this with your downloads?
It looks like we could do the login using http://www.filesonic.com/user/login (this is what JDownloader does), we may consider this for DownloadStudio 7.0.

I came out with some interesting news.
I uploaded a file to filesonic and used DownloadStudio to download it myself.
DownloadStudio was able to download this file. But it failed to download other links (Your movie or other links from my friends)
I used an Australian proxy server and tested DownloadStudio once again.
With this proxy, DownloadStudio downloaded your movie, but failed to download my own file.
it shows that at least a part of my assumption in my previous post maybe right.

I currently have a cookie for filesonic.jp in my browser and if I add http://filesonic.jp/file/r000216945/...1.14.part4.rar to DownloadStudio it is resolved correctly and downloads, but if I add http://www.filesonic.com/file/r00021...1.14.part4.rar it is resolved as text/html and will not download the file correctly. As long as the domain of the file link matches the domain of the cookie the file will be downloaded, if you login to filesonic.jp in your web browser then you need to change your links to use filesonic.jp, if you login to www.filesonic.com you need to use links with www.filesonic.com
-
I can't agree with you.
When I used the proxy and clicked a filesonic link, I wasn't redirected to login page. Firefox and DownloadStudio used the existing .jp cookie to download the file. And the download was successful. I even searched the cookies, there wasn't(and isn't) any .com cookie with a valid PHPSESSID.
It doesn't seem the cookie itself concerns. With a .jp cookie I was able to download a .com link with the proxy.
