Hi Fred !

Tested GTK Youtube-Viewer..........
Could not manage to download ........maybe i am doing anything wrong ?
In Xenial-Dog it does .
Regards !

Hi backi,
You're talking about gtk-youtube-viewer, not youtube-get, right ?
You tried on.. StretchDog ? What you did ?
It has included youtube-viewer version 3.1.5
Works for me when I select an item > "Download selected video"

To upgrade to newer version: 3.3.1-stretch Downloading works a little different with this version:
Select item > right-click > Video > Download

Fred

Hi Fred !
Thanks ......
Youtube-viewer works even a bit more comfortable than Youtube get.
Never recognized/used it before ........cool !!!

Regards !

Hi fred !
Sorry for inconvenience .....but have latest Youtube-viewer installed in Stretch-Dog .
Nevertheless does not download .As i said ....in Xenial-Dog it does .
Not much a Problem ....just want to report .

EDIT:
Found an even more convenient way using Smtube/Smplayer for watching and/or downloading Youtube Videos using uget,wget or youtube-dl with Smtube/Smplayer .

Here is the link for the How To :

Thanks for report, backi, I think I know what can be wrong, in the config the terminal is set to xfce4-terminal, so if you don't have it installed then download doesn't work (needs to run from terminal).
So if you go into Preferences (from gtk-youtube-viewer menu) and change to xterm it should work: Or roxterm (if installed): EDIT: Uploaded new youtube-viewer package to custom repos: version: 3.3.1-2-stretch
Changed default terminal to xterm in (included) config file, this assumes that xterm is installed, but it probably will be in most cases. Thanks again backi.

hi backi
with abrowser 54 (firefox) i can download
all videos with addons...
look ad screenshot...

with respect...

Hi Zagreb !
Thanks for your Tip.
Do not use Firefox .So the Problem came from , i am using Palemoon. Some of the addons you listed will either not install on Palemoon because they are Jetpack/SDK Extension Format which is not supported in Palemoon .....or they do not download "EVERY" Type of Video.
For Example Videos from VEVO or High Quality Videos .
Give you two Examples :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNcPwrfK9tY

Downloading them in highest Quality could be best accomplished for me with the Methods which i described above :

Found an even more convenient way using Smtube/Smplayer for watching and/or downloading Youtube Videos using uget,wget or youtube-dl with Smtube/Smplayer .

Here is the link for the How To :

So i regard my Problem as solved in a bit unusual Way.
Nevertheless ....Thanks for your Help .

Hi Fred !

Regarding :

So if you go into Preferences (from gtk-youtube-viewer menu) and change to xterm it should work:
Code:
terminal => "/usr/bin/xterm",

That Trick worked.Now i am able to download with gtk-youtube-viewer in Debian-Dog too .
Cheers !

Just wanted to stick my head in here and give a quick, huge thanks to Fred.

My favorite Linux distro at the moment is an Xfce Stretch I built using Fred's GUI script (running on Kubuntu 17.10), with subsequent additions & remastering. Although a bit larger than a typical Puppy of comparable functionality, it's still plenty compact to run frugally w/savefile in RAM. Fast, super flexible, easy to modify and upgrade, with all of these great tools of Fred's (and rcrsn51's) included. Just great!!

And your analog clock .debs are a treat, too - I love having a tweakable analog clock on my desktop, and these just work, flawlessly (unlike so many others)... even on other distros (Mint 18 and Ubuntu/Kubuntu). More great stuff!

Thanks so very much for your efforts and expertise, Fred - very well appreciated from this simple end-user!!

Bob

Thanks Moat !!

IS THERE
light 49-firefox
FOR DDOG?

Hi Zagreb !
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/rel ... inux-i686/
Look if you can find a Folder for Yugoslavian Version .

Extract firefox-49.0.tar.bz2 .Put this extracted Firefox Directory to /opt or /home or any Place and symlink (executable) firefox to some Place from where you can start it from .

THANKS BACKI
IT IS NOT FIREFOX,
BUT LIGHT 49

FRED MADE LIGHT 46,
BUT NOT LIGHT 49.
LIHGT 49 CAN NOT START...

Backi's instructions, but from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lightf ... 48_gcc232/

Note: Light-firefox 49 is seriously out of date.

mikesLr

mikeslr, thanks

yes, but in debiandog it can not start...

regards.

Hi zagreb, try this .deb:

https://fredx181.github.io/StretchDog/N ... 8_i386.deb

EDIT: I think you know, but anyway for info:
If you use dpkg -i from terminal it should follow with apt-get -f install, so: P.S. Maybe you might need to install extra codecs for media playback, that I don't know of.

Fred

FRED, THANKS!

IT WORKS GREAT...

It doesn't really for me, no sound on Youtube, this squashfs module of version 48 (peebee made it some time ago) works better for me:
https://debiandog.github.io/MakeLive/mo ... 0.squashfs
At least sound on Youtube (with flashplayer installed)
Only one library is missing for me, libatomic1, so I installed it: Fred
