A Chrome extension to assist with downloading multiple files from a Plex server
Browse to any album (music, photos, movie collection or tv season) and click the extention icon and then download to start downloading the whole album. Downloading only the selected files is currently only possible for music albums. If you want to do the same for photos one workaround is to add the selected photos to a new (temporary) album and then download that.
Patchnotes:
- v1.1
Changed file name of TV Episodes to format 'Series name - SxxExx - episode name.format'
- v1.0
First official release.
- v0.9
Fixed download of photo albums.
- v0.8
The extension now matches host "app.plex.tv" and path "/web/index.html" to try and not be in your face on pages that have nothing to do with Plex.
- v0.7
Added path match "desktop" because the host app.plex.tv isn't using the same path as the self hosted version.
- v0.6
The downloads are now queued in a background script so they will continue even if the active tab is changed. Also rewriting file/pathnames to not conflict with Windows path restrictions.
- v0.5
The Extension is now restricted to tabs with the path "web/index.html" so it won't be in your face all the time.
- v0.4
Added support for libraries that were shared with you.
- v0.3
Fixed download link so it will also download pictures not just music.
- v0.2
Fixed broken manifest.json
- v0.1
First version.

Jumping jeebuz, why didn't Plex bother with a Select All Download function? But this extension saved my butt, seriously. We had 131 childhood pics selected into a Playlist/Collection, and no way to bulk download them to print for a presentation/ceremony. This add-on got them in less than a MINUTE. |

This extension used to work for me for downloading music playlists, but has gotten increasingly buggy over time. As other reviews have noted, the 'Download Selected' option is greyed out and does not work at all. When downloading whole playlists, the extension used to queue up several downloads simultaneously, but now only goes one track at a time, making everything considerably slower. Recently, the sequence of downloads now completely stops if you click away to any other Chrome tab or window, so this has made the extension a total pain for me. If you're in the middle of downloading a playlist of 100+ songs and then switch Chrome tabs, the extension stops adding tracks to the download queue and you won't be able to pick up where it left off because 'Download Selected' doesn't work. You'll either need to manually download the rest individually, or begin the whole process again while being unable to use Chrome for other browsing while 'Download All' does its thing. Please fix this! |

Works, but not on playlists, which is why I wanted it in the first place. |
