RapidWareX was recently updated with the ability to stream audio and video directly from the Rapidshare servers. This new feature is currently only working with video files that have been encoded with the Divx codec and audio files that have the mp3 file extension. The video can consist of a single avi file, a collection of uncompressed and unencrypted rar archives or a collection of HJSplit files.

The Rapidshare Downloader requires a working Rapidshare account to download or stream files from the file hoster. That’s a bit unfortunate and a distinct disadvantage in comparison to other Rapidshare download managers such as the Rapidshare download manager JDownloader.

Links can be added to RapidWareX in various ways including copying pasting them directly in the application, pasting html from the clipboard or loading links from files that are stored on the local computer system. Quite a few options are available that make the downloading process more comfortable. The program can retry downloads, display the remaining download traffic, offers a remote interface and secure links over https.

The program offers a build in Rapidshare search module which will redirect the requests to a website that is displaying the search results. RapidWareX is a free download for the Windows operating system and requires the Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 to run.

The download manager has several benefits over manually downloading files from Rapidshare. The first is that you can simply add as many download links to it which will all be stored and processed one after the other. The image verification is filled in automatically by JDownloader which means that you can keep it running in the background all the time without having to actively manage the downloads.

Download links can be automatically added by making Jdownloader observe the clipboard. It offers a reconnect feature which has to be configured, an unpacker, a password list, selecting a favored server from each hoster and much more. There are several options that need some explanation though before you can start using it.

You should first realize that JDownloader needs Java, so make sure that is installed. After unpacking the application you need to execute the file JDownloader.jar to start the installation where you select a download location for the files. Files will be automatically updated during the setup as well.

Before you start to begin downloading files you need to accept the Terms of Service for all file hosters that you want to download from. Open the options, click on Hosts in there and check the TOS of the file hosters.

The language can be set to German and English but even if you select English it looks like a mix of German and English. Not to hard to figure out stuff because the most important elements are well translated.
