SynoDownloader v0.4 Released
People who are following the thread on the Synology Forums have probably also tried version 0.2 and 0.3, but to let you all know: Version 0.4 is available for download!
In the previous version the need for hacking your CubeStation was removed, since triad has hacked the admin password. So now it’s really Download & Play.
New in this version:
- New Name (since the application can be used for all Synology NAS products, not only the Cubestation).
- Sponsoring (Mobile-Harddisk.nl offered me some goodies for my hard work (hehe), and in return I mention their company every here and there).
- Drop Zone (check it out)
- Site Manager (Save credentials for ‘private’ domains and trackers)
- Search Favorites (Save your favorite search queries so you can easily recall them)
- MiniNova Search
- ‘Start with Windows’ option (in the preferences dialog)
RSS Feeds support has been dropped for now: most provided feeds are not completely RSS2.0 compatible, which makes it very hard to track if there are new entries. (To do so, I would need to save the history per feed in some location, which is quite a lot of work). As an alternative I provided the Search Favorites.
If anyone can tell me what they think about this alternative, or have an idea how to consume RSS-feeds: please do so at the Synology Forums!

Hey, thanks for this - its awesome. It continually frustrated me that the synology client couldn’t be associated with .torrent files… You’ve done a nice job on this, and it works flawlessly on my DS-101j so far…

This is great! Thanks a lot for doing this.
I have a problem with drop zone: if I drop a url from a password protected site (easynews.com) it reports “BrokenLink”. If I add the same url via the “Add url from clipboard” it works just fine. I have created easynews.com in the site manager. Is there some sort of log I can see to help troubleshoot this?
Thanks again for the client - great work!
