This can be used by checking ‘ Autorip from the clipboard.’ This option can be accessed using the option “ Download url list.” One more interesting option available is to be able to get URLs directly from the clipboard. Users can add either a single link to an album or provide several links in a text file (separated by new-lines) and use that file as in input.

Hardware and network configurations Download links and location The timeout duration can also be changed, and also, the number of retries, if there is some error while downloading an image/album, can also be configured. Users can configure the maximum number of download threads. There is also a small status bar, indicating the activity of the program. There is a bar on the top to provide an album link, and simple buttons, saying ‘ Rip,’ which starts the downloading process, and ‘ Stop,’ which halts it.
