They most likely don't want us to be able to do so if I now tell of a manual way to do it using Snow pup 5 then they read this in our forum and look into it and stop that one from working too.

So I keep my mouth shut on that one. Send me a PM if you are desperate to know how to do it manually.

Sheesh. Every few months they change their format and I need to update my script.
This shows when things changed.
This script seems to have been updated, and the changelog mentions that youtube started using unicode values for ampersands... I think this is can be solved by inserting

I just had a look at a new youtube html file and I see a lot of "\u0026", which is unicode for something... I presume ampersand. So it will probably be something like

hi
About a week or so ago I used the new you2pup and it worked ok. I tried today to download a file and it looks like you2pup is broke again.

I use puppy 4.3.1 and the you2pup ver. for general puppies.

Has anyone tried to use the new you2pup and had it work ok in the last few days?

I forgot to say which ver. of you2pup I downloaded. It was you2pup-2.1.4.pet the general version .

I download ver. 2.1.4 today and run it with no success.

What happens is it tries to download the youtube video but then it stops and then goes away.

I just tried 2.1.4 with a random video and it worked... it might be something about the video you're trying to download (maybe some character in the name is causing problems).

Another thing. They have converted some 30% of all videos to a new format so that could explain things maybe?

Hello there,

made a new version with movgrab as downloader. For me the old you2pup wont work. Feel free to test my verison and please leave a post.

Movgrab is included (compiled in clean puppy 4.1.2 with ssl support, version 1.1.4). You can download an other version here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=68986&sid=a539c0a1700905a8c087305bd407bfc1

Needs gtkdialog 3. I am using the "real" gxmessage, looks much better.
Think version number has to be changed Embarassed

Not a .pet => please test it!

Thank you and have a good time!
