BilderHerunterlader / FAQ

Will further hosts be supported
Yes, when it's technically possible. Send me an e-mail if you know a host, that isn't supported yet. And send also links with images hosted on that host.

The program caused an error. What should i do?
Send me an e-mail with an exact description of the error.
Send me also the logfile (BH.log) as attechment. The logfile is stored in your profile folder in subfolder .BH.

Where is my profile folder?
Under Windows you can find the folder, when you type %userprofile%\.BH in the Explorer.
Under Linux you can find the folder over ~/.BH

For what all are these files in the profile folder?
BH.lock -> That file is locked by the program to make sure only one instance of the program is running.
BH.log -> Logfile in which error messages are stored.
For every day one logfile is created. (e.g. BH.log.2007-05-20)
BH-Downloads.db4o -> Database in which the download-queue is stored.
BH-Keywords.db4o -> Database in which the keywords are stored.
BH-Logs.txt -> That file contains information about downloaded images.
settings.xml -> That file contains the settings of the program.
port.txt -> That file contains the port which is used by the program (needed for Firefox/Seamonkey-Extension, IE-Plugin)

A image is downloaded, but the progressbar ins't moving. Why?
Some server doesn't send the size of the image. Without the size the progressbar can't be shown correctly. So the progressbar isn't moving.

When starting the program and JRE6 is used, a problem with the System tray arises. What should i do?
The commandline argument "-noTray" is starting the program without using the system tray.

Are there any other commandline arguments?
Yes. Here is the full list:
-noTray -> BH will start without using SystemTray
-noDebug -> Errors were put to console and not the the debug window

And these 2 arguments are only for automating the setup creaton:
-version -> Prints the Version of BH (e.g. 1.2.0)
-versionNumber -> Prints the VersionNumber of BH (e.g. 120)
