With this lower rate, the movies usually finish downloading.
I just have the problem described in my previous post that if the downloaded filesize goes over 2048MB, then GetFLV screws up and resets the downloaded file back to 0 Bytes. I wish someone from GetFLV would address this issue. Please let me know if you have this same issue on your Windows 7 machine.
Yeah I have the same issue as well. I just tried to download a full length film and did exactly what you said it would.

If you download multiple things at once doesn't it bump the quality down? I would also try pausing each download until I have a few of them queued, but when I try to resume a download it ALWAYS fails.

Also, my average download speed is 2.6MB/s.
