On the Fly Downloader (formerly known as RemoteDrive) allows using files from the web locally. A local file is created, which behaves like a fully downloaded copy even though the download is still in progress.

Features

  • Remote files are made available to applications through local filesystem
  • An access to a not-yet-downloaded location in a file downloads that location first
  • Simple download manager
  • Automatic resuming of interrupted downloads
  • Accelerated downloading: Multiple connections per file are possible
  • Automatic detection of a new download being a mirror of an ongoing one
  • Segmented downloading from multiple mirrors simultaneously
  • Queue
  • Supported protocols: HTTP
  • GUI (graphical user interface)
  • CLI (command-line interface) for browser integration
  • Uses the "Pismo File Mount" virtual filesystem library by Pismo Technic Inc.
