Hi. I am a long-time lurker, first time poster to Reddit! I have a problem that has me stumped and normally, I would like to work things out for myself but I am banging my head against the wall.

I have a youtube channel where I post images that have been downloaded with this tool in the format of a stop-motion. These could be of MRI's, photo's of the sun from various solar probes, photo's from weather satellites and so so on.

There are many solar probes that are put into space to analyze the behavior of the sun. They each take x amount of photo's on a regular interval using a timer. This could be once every three minutes.

If the solar probe is of the property of NASA, then it goes to a big database that they host. These photo's are free use, providing the relevant people and entities are acknowledged. These images are categorized by month. So, every month it starts a new index and photo's go into the new index instead.

There is an index directory of photo's from Stereo-B that I would like to download, however I am having some trouble.

This is an example of a directory that could be accessed using a web browser (Google Chrome).

https://iswa.gsfc.nasa.gov/iswa_data_tree/observation/solar/stereo-B/euvi/2007/04/

The web browser displays the photo's correctly, but must sometimes wait for up to two minutes after the request to receive a response. This depends on how many photo's there are in that index.

However, this doesn't work at all for Cyotek WebCopy, or any of the web crawlers that I have tried.

The reason why I refer to Cyotek Webcopy is because it is the closest solution that I have found to working. However, it timeouts after 20 seconds. Not long enough for the website to deliver a response.

After playing around with the speed limit settings, in project>project settings, I was able to download this directory. It has 14,000 images, and notice that it is on the same domain.

https://iswa.gsfc.nasa.gov/iswa_data_tree/observation/solar/sdo/aia-0131_1024x1024/2018/05/

Please can someone help me? I don't know if it is possible to do this without the developers issuing a patch. If they do issue a patch, along with telling me instructions, I would be endlessly grateful.

Does anyone else have better luck? What did you do, how did you do it, using what. I would love to know. It isn't practical downloading them all one-by-one!
