by Firefox user 13471824, 7 years agoI will REPEAT what many others have said.....................
The old version let me do what I want to do, which is download the video and the extracted audio. It also REMEMBERS where I last saved a video/audio combination, so I don't have to keep traipsing around my hard drive to find the place to download.
WHY would you take a perfectly good program and break it so that it is only useful to complete tech-heads? It was fine before. It did what needed to be done. I have fiddled with this new version for about an hour now. I am done. GDit. I am so tired of having to go find alternate versions of things after the good version is broken by "improvements." What is wrong with "you people"?
The instructions say:
1. After installation, go to the options page and
-> 1. Install the native client (This is a small NodeJS client written by @andy_portmen)
-> 2. Install the FFmpeg executable
2. FFmpeg integration is required if high resolution video or audio files are preferred.
My questions are:
Where do I find the options page?
What is FFmpeg integration and how is it done?

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 5836511, 2 months agoHas been a really great addon for a long time until it stopped working for me three years ago.
So I did let it live in my firefox out of hope that someday there may be an update which would get it working again.
But I think after three years of waiting in vain, it's safe to pronounce this add-on dead, uninstall it and look for alternatives.
So long, and thanks for all the videos, but I guess it's time to move on. - Rated 1 out of 5by malau, 2 months agoI was shocked to see that this was still installed. No buttons have shown up for years. It's a totally broken mess that i'm, about to remove.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Booff, 3 months agoThis was the best youtube downloader available but it no longer works and it appears the developer has given up as no updates for 3 years.

- Rated 1 out of 5by pwn20, 3 months agoUsed to be a fantastic add-on but now it doesn't work anymore as it's been abandoned for three years. Should be removed from the add-on store.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17370110, 4 months agoThis used to be great. I would use it to download the audio from YouTube podcasts, but it stopped working. I found this newer version, installed everything (ffmpeg etc) and it STILL DOESN'T WORK!! I'm so sad and disappointed. I really wish they'd get this working for YouTube again.
