Feature Requests

I fully agree with you that this needs to be done immediately!!

There should be several options instituted:

In the preference of the program there should be an option to eliminate from the search outcome files that meet a certain size requirements.

2nd: One should have the ability to highlight several files at once and with one right click of the mouse block all the hosts that have those files.

3rd: If one result shows up but with 36 people that have it, at present we are only able to block one. We need the ability to block all.

I hope LIMEWIRE is reading this!!!

Lets put the class back into this program and give the users what they need.

This should be top priority next to security.

Everyone please voice your opinion and other features that you feel merit Limewire to change

I dont think this is the right spot, and my hands are freezing so its hard to type but here i go...

has anyone else ever notice how when you start up limewire and it resumes your downloads it often says needs more sources, but if you do a manual search for that very same file then it will usually find a bunch of sources. there must be a problem with the automatic search or whatever. similarly, if you start downloading and leave your computer and come back later sometimse the download has stopped and its status is "needs more sources" or whatever, but when you do a manual search, once again, it finds a bunch of sources again.

that's about the only thing that really bothers me about the current limewire.

LW 4.8.x had a force resume option. if a file was awaiting sources, the force resume option would start a search for sources. now, with it gone, the only thing you can do about files awaiting sources is to cancel them and then restart them. becomes kinda troublesome, switiching back n forth with ur incomplete folder in the library and the download tab.
i would love to have the force resume option back for good!

Add Rockabilly to the Audio Genre List

synapticCleft · #**310** (**permalink**) December 16th, 2005

1. If we could automatically sort each search by one of the columns (set in the prefs.)
2. If we could set bitrate filters so that we do not see any audio below a certain bitrate level in the search list.

Thanks.
