KNOWN BUGS:

           Now all Pictures in the entire channel gets Downloaded but not all videos
           TODO Make sure the video ID is loaded

           This Script does not get all the pics. JodelCity only loads the first 80
           or so comments. So only the pics within thes loaded comments will be found.
           SOLVED

           Somtimes the dirver chraches without a abvious reason. Just restart the Script
           SOLVED

Future imprufments:

           Use base_url + '6789?ajax=1&no=200&to=300' to load post 200 to 300 or base_url + '?gal=1' for picture gallery
