## How It Works

TGrab connects to the Telegram API using your credentials and downloads media from conversations. It can capture all types of media, including self-destructing images, by accessing them directly through the API before they expire.

### Key Components

1. **Authentication**: TGrab uses your Telegram API credentials to authenticate with the Telegram servers.
2. **Media Retrieval**: It fetches messages from specified users or chats and identifies media content.
3. **Filtering**: Media is filtered based on your criteria (type, size, dimensions, date, etc.).
4. **Deduplication**: Optional deduplication prevents downloading the same file multiple times.
5. **Parallel Downloads**: Multiple files can be downloaded simultaneously for better performance.
6. **Organization**: Downloaded files can be organized by date, chat, or media type.
7. **Scheduling**: Tasks can be scheduled to run at regular intervals.

### Interactive Mode

The interactive mode provides a user-friendly terminal interface for:
- Browsing chats
- Searching for media
- Configuring settings
- Managing scheduled tasks
- Previewing and selecting media to download

### Scheduled Downloads

The scheduler allows you to:
- Set up recurring download tasks
- Specify intervals (minutes, hours, days)
- Configure different download parameters for each task
- Run tasks in the background

## Feature Details

### Media Filtering

Filter media based on:
- Media type (photos, videos, documents, audio)
- Date range
- File size
- Dimensions (for images and videos)
- Duration (for videos and audio)
- Caption content

### Media Deduplication

Avoid downloading duplicate files using:
- File hash comparison
- Filename comparison
- File size comparison
- Or a combination of all methods

### Parallel Downloads

Improve download speed by:
- Downloading multiple files simultaneously
- Configuring the number of parallel downloads
- Setting chunk size for large files

### Organization Options

Organize downloaded media by:
- Date (year/month/day folders)
- Chat (one folder per chat)
- Media type (photos, videos, etc.)
- Custom filename templates
