At this stage just glad to get it out there and hopefully build up a bit of a user-base - then I might start a webpage for it if people like the s/w.

It is certainly fast, and to my taste is a suitable size and has nice features. Excellent job!!
Maybe a few tweaks could be done..
This link shows images of a version I wrote almost a year ago (27/11/2013), but the iView catalogue metadata overtook my time constraints due to some major personal changes, and it is very faulty now.
These are small images on Dropbox.
There are some configuration toggles (but not persisted to a settings file on disk), to save or not save captions, descriptions, series images, and a log file. Download rates, sizes, etc were saved into the log file and the description file had a little extra info, too (download rate & size, etc).
Also found I like to see some of the iView trailers, refresh the series catalogue, etc. I mused about multiple downloads, had versions that did that too. Checking for possibility of user DL the same show multi times held me back - but for my own use, of course I wouldn't do that ...
Also possible with mine (when working) to rename some shows before the download began (all of the download set would be renamed). Checked for odd characters in filenames, etc of course.
Just a few ideas and UI ideas you may like to steal, or not. Also, I spent a bit of time on useability ("UX") - where buttons etc were placed, distance mouse had to travel, etc.
Just a pity it doesn't work any more!!!
