Infos on the "pause mode"

[Spikespiegeru]

In hitomidownloader there is an option for you to add the doujins links in "paused mode".
That way the user can add his doujins to the download list, and start downloading them only after having added them all to the list.

I could be wrong, or I didn't pay attention, but I noticed that app provides information about size, number of pages, Manga name, Artist, etc, only after starting the download.

Is there a way for the hitdown to load this information in "paused mode" (before start download)?

I don't think that's a good idea. Here are some reasons:

1. Some image links may be expired.
2. Image links should be re-read when it's about to start download. If the page requires authentication, the user may need to authenticate twice.
3. If there are many files, it takes a lot of time to read all file sizes.
4. If it reads only the file sizes and doesn't actually download the contents of the files, the site owner might suspect these behaviors.
5. If there are multiple chapters in the link, It takes too long.

Except the tag "Download Size", the other info like "Number of pages", "Doujin Name", "Artist", also generate this kind of problem?
