videodownloader's Issues

It doesn't work if I try to download as audio for dailymotion videos.

The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly

Seems the installation instructions should have mentioned the need for setting up chrome-sandbox properly. I'm running on WSL and get this.

$ sudo chown root node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox
$ sudo chmod 4755 node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox
$ npm start

> [email protected] start /mnt/c/work/experiments/node/videodownloader
> electron .

[1790:0702/081142.951857:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that node_modules/electron/dist/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.

SSL cert error

Binary is not uploading, instead bricks with this error

Linux version?

Changing file format upon downloading

Any chance we can get a version of this that downloads in a .MP4 file format? .MKV is great, but Adobe Premiere is incompatible with .MKV files.

Linux version?

Do you plan on releasing one?
Thank you.

Use youtube-dl package

Wouldn't it be easier to use the youtube-dl package instead of having to download the executable?

please make deploy to heroku button

Video download

Where is the 100 supported websies list?

I need a list of supported websites on the readme before I install it.

I download the video, it's just 51 minutes, but it's size is 12G

Hi, I download the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mC7nN8OShvY&list=PLMBAcjeGtKQbVUmhZrrPf4evOyrDgFOTX&index=9 ,

it's just 51 minutes, but it's size is 12G, it is huge.

Is there a way that to choose a small size?

Can't get onfocusout event to work for #saveAsTitle

Would like to run populateTitle() on onfocusout or onblur but it seems to be impossible. If anyone else can get it to work that's great

Insecure string pickle

When I try to download a video I get an error message saying "insecure string pickle". After some googling it seems to indicate that one of the reasons why this error message might pop up is if you are forgetting to close the stream that you're using for dumping the data structure. No idea if this is applicable for you though.

Video I tried to download in case that matters:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8XIR3OwKKo

The only value I changed in your GUI was the location to where it was being downloaded. And I changed it to a folder to which I have write rights.

No log seems to have been generated in the normal places (Mac OS X). Let me know where I can find them in case you are interested in what has been generated there.
I am using Mac OS X 10.14.1

resolution choice / arguments ?

First of all thank you for this.

Is there a way to choose dl resolution (at least for youtube 360p, 720p or 1080p) ?

Regards

Don't allow title sizes over 255 characters

Currently downloads will fail if the title is too long. There should be a hard limit of 255 chars, or whatever the limit would have to be to prevent me getting this error: ERROR: unable to open for writing: [Errno 63] File name too long:

Yy

Is it possible to hard code the download directory?

Is it possible to hard code the download directory?

Help Building a MacOS App

Hi @mayeaux !

Your video downloader is awesome, thank you for sharing it with the GitHub community! =]

I'm trying to integrate your video downloader into a native MacOS app. The application is for internal use only, so it won't be sold or anything. And I was wondering if you'd be able to help troubleshoot it?
