    Can I somehow let downloads start automatically at 0 a.m.?

    When I downloaded 100/100, can I somehow let the next downloads start automatically at 0 a.m.?

    Or can I simply let the software running, when I am on 100/100 and downloads will start themselves at 0 a.m.?

    0 a.m. UTC (source) not your local time (or you life in Greenwich?)

    Of course it's easy with Win Task Scheduler (taskschd.msc) to start SF at a time ..
    .. but this don't forces the dl of your queue

    I've never tried if this possible with



    If not (only for new subscribed content?), I think it's only possible with a tool that click for you ..
    .. something like AutoIT or Power Automate Desktop​

      Yesterday, on 10 p.m. (UTC+0) I was on 80/100 and started downloading in the hope that the last 20 downloads will not be done before 0 a.m. and the next 100 downloads would automatically continue after that.

      However, the limit did not reset on (UTC+0) automatically. It seems, that you have to restart the software to reset the limit, right?

      Interestingly, my last download of that 100/100 finished at 1:30 a.m. (UTC+0), but today the limit is 100/100. I would have expected, that all downloads, that finished after 0 a.m. should count to the new limit (today's limit). But they counted to yesterday's limit, alltough they have been finished long after 0 a.m.

      I will have a test this evening, if the "Automatically start download" option will help me.

        There's also a bug that makes this feature almost useless: when you restart SF, the time always resets to 00:00, no matter what you set it previously to. As the limits reset on 01:00 (in my time zone), SF will never download anything anyway.

          I think I had noticed this problem before ..
          .. but since I don't have anything in Scheduled, it's irrelevant for me
          (perhaps it's reset to default, when no Task in "Scheduled")

          In %AppData%\DVDFab\StreamFab
          is taskSchedule.ini in this I've the info:
          Code:
          "m_nextCheckTime":"Wed Mar 12 00:01:00 2025","m_schedulerTime":"Wed Mar 12 00:01:00 2025"
          But I don't think it serves MSco's purpose anyway.​
