Everything is working fine for my needs. I usually set downloads for one at a time.

Is there a way to

not

have downloaded format information on the file name or can this be a request? I find myself having to rename everything I downloaded again.

And as usually Great apk. Best by far:good:
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Great, thank you very much.

About the renaming setting, we used to have it, and then I removed it because it was screwing up something that frankly now I don't remember. But I *needed* to remove it, for sure. Let me take a look anyway, when possible.

Just tried this YouTube link, and can't seem to pull up any available formats to download:

Pharrell Williams - Come Get It Bae: http://youtu.be/UfGMj10wOzg
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
I'm not 100% sure, but it seems we have again a problem with ALL videos with encrypted signature (Vevo, etc...).
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
A new beta (v4.4-beta-6) is available. It just integrates the patch from the stable v4.3.2.

http://dentex.github.io/files/apk/beta/dentex.youtube.downloader_v4.4-beta-6.apk

;)
[Android Apps and Games] Gareee:
I can confirm the new update works with that Pharrell Williams link I posted in cm11 latest stable on my nexus 7 2013.
[Android Apps and Games] Gareee:
Hmmm. another link has bizarre downloading issues.. try the 720p version:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTbP_e9WrLg

EDIT.. it downloads it, but the progress bar and the current download speed is wonky
[Android Apps and Games] mp3deviant721:
That one seems to not be available on mobile... Maybe that's why its acting funny...

GS³: Carbonized, LeanKernel'd, Philz'd
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Yes, it's the awkwardest thing I've ever seen developing this app. My phone even froze trying to pause that strange progress.

I confirm, this video is not available for mobiles, but other times YTD had no problem to download such videos.

I'm curious to see what's happening, but there will be some delay, due to summer/w.e./family etc. :D
[Android Apps and Games] skyhirules:
The beta releases are not automatically checked and downloaded from the app (though I've checked the relevant option in settings). You have to manually check for updates. I don't know whether this is intentional, but please fix it.:)
[Android Apps and Games] CE20934:
It works for me on my phone & ROM (SII running 4.2.2 Carbon). Almost as soon as I fire up YTD, there's a notification a new beta/release has been downloaded and is ready to be installed.

What phone & ROM are you running?
[Android Apps and Games] skyhirules:
Xperia S, with stock 4.1.2.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Hey guys,

It's not a ROM related issue.

The update progress involving beta versions is not perfect. For now, as I state in the 1st post, going from a beta to a new beta, requires passing through the stable version, if it's also available. So, if you do this via the auto updates, you need two checks in sequence. Now, since auto updates fire only once per day, you need two days. I hope I was clear. Anyway this happened this time just because I released both a stable and a beta together.

For the record: the fix is simple, but lately I'm not having much time for development.
[Android Apps and Games] Gareee:
I did manage to download it on my tablet using wifi.. I didn't test on my phone though. it just took a while, but then it IS 2.25 gb!

(Its the full Monty Python reunion concert a friend wanted to snag before it was taken down.)
[Android Apps and Games] yapyeeleck:
Is it still open for testing?
[Android Apps and Games] mp3deviant721:
Sure is. Download either the latest beta or stable and enable "Include Beta Updates" under Updates. Hit check for updates and profit.

Hi there

[MENTION=4792098]xda_dentex[/MENTION], could you please have a look here :

https://crowd.xprivacy.eu/?package_name=dentex.youtube.downloader

Looks like someone is trying to "shoot down" your app...
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Well I don't think anyone one can shoot down anything :) it looks like a settings record for xprivacy. And, anyway, YTD doesn't access any personal data permission: just internet, vibration and storage read/write.
[Android Apps and Games] Thumper333:
Thank you for this great app!

I have spent far too much time on the play store trying to find a downloader that really works.
[Android Apps and Games] skyhirules:
Today I tried to download a video and the app crashed. It crashes on every video download right after I tap the download button. Unfortunately Android doesn't offer a report to be send. It just informs that the app stopped working.

Can you do something about it? I run 4.4b6, on stock Xperia Android 4.1.2, rooted.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Hi.

Please do, in sequence:

- Send log from YTD's settings, so I can have a look (reproduce the error, first)

Then, to fix the crashes, try to:

- clear the dashboard from YTD's settings; or, if it doesn't work:

- clear the app's data from system settings.
[Android Apps and Games] skyhirules:
Installing the app again fixed the problem. :eek:

Unfortunately, before taking a log from the app settings. Thanks a lot anyway for the quick reply. You rock!:good:
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
If you did uninstall and then install again, it's like clearing the app's data.

Anyway I'm glad it's working now.

I'm sorry without the log I can't say what was going on.
[Android Apps and Games] tcspirit:
Good app
[Android Apps and Games] pseudonym58:
xda_dentex,

In the interest of removing every trace of the YouTube Downloader before I reinstall (still having problems downloading using cell data connection only), is there anything I should do?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
AFAIK if you uninstall an app you remove everything, apart user's files on the shared storage (for YTD they are your downloads/converted files/dashboard backups). No other settings or any trace should remain on the system.
[Android Apps and Games] Gareee:
I should be able to download vimeo videos with this, right?

You can't seem to find episodes 1 and 2 of this... Is there a way to manually input vimeo video links?

Hello! Just a "bump" post.

I'm start soon some tests with a new FFmpeg binary addressing the latest Android version non compatibility (hopefully)[emoji41]
[Android Apps and Games] bob_man_uk:
I used to use the queuing feature of the 4.4.6 beta and the app updated to 4.3.3, now the beta apk has been removed.

is it still possible to get the beta APK because i use the queuing feature far more than i watch 60fps yt videos, i have tried enabling the option to download beta versions from the settings. still nothing.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Hello.

Sure, the beta needs the patch from the 4.3.3 to work (to download again all videos, I mean).

I didn't have time for this.

Just be patient a little bit.
[Android Apps and Games] pseudonym58:
Interesting. I took a brand new Moto G (2013, Android 4.4.4), and after initializing through Google, basic app installations, etc., I installed YTD. When connected by cell data, still no sources or downloads, although search comes up with results.

Tried other apps, such as TubeMate, which can download over cell data, so I don't think it's a phone setting. But I prefer to use YTD in any case.

There must be something with that particular phone model that only allows YTD to fully function under WiFi. Have also tried latest non-beta release.

It's not a big deal for me, since I have a limited data plan anyway, but it's strange.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Yes it's strange. There are no limitations with any type of data connections, within YTD. What I can tell, it's that sometime I get no formats results (less common also no search results) when my WiFi or mobile are not going at full speed. Probably I did the "scraping" part of the app (when you get formats for downloading) a bit heavy.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Here we go!

v4.4-beta-7 - Nov 19 2014
-----------------------------------
[x] configurable downloads queue
[x] option to invert dashboard\'s entries click menus
[x] auto-resume downloads paused due to network failure
[x] new FFmpeg build targeting non-NEON CPUs (i.e. Tegra devices)
[x] ability to send logcat to the developer via email
[x] added Croatian, Indonesian (WIP) and Norwegian (WIP) translations
[x] fixed dashboard rename with existing filename (thanks m0d)
[x] back-button going through all tabs now as optional
[x] new FFmpeg builds supporting Android L

To update to this beta from YTD, enable the setting to download beta versions and then check for updates (Note: to upgrade from beta-6 to 7, it will pass through the v4.3.3)

or download the apk directly from http://dentex.github.io/files/apk/beta/dentex.youtube.downloader_v4.4-beta-7.apk

[Android Apps and Games] viktorlj:
Everything is ok now on nexus 4 with lollipop. Conversion to mp3 works again.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Glad to hear this, thanks for the report.
[Android Apps and Games] leswgnr:
Just installed the 4.4.7 beta and doing some very preliminary testing. I'm not sure if this was the previously normal behavior, but I was in the format screen after doing a search, hit the back button intending to return to the search, which then took me completely out of the application instead of back to search.

Also, if I may request a possible new feature. I would like to be able to just delete a downloaded file while still keeping the entry in YTD. This allows me to keep track of the last download in a series so I know which is the next one I wish to get. Currently, I believe the only option to delete a file is if I also delete the entry in YTD's dashboard.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
[MENTION=4474814]leswgnr[/MENTION]:

1) this change is due to another feature request made by many users. To use again the "back button override" behavior now you have a dedicated setting to turn on, otherwise what you described it's the default.

2) I don't think that leaving "fileless" entry into the Dashboard would be good for many reasons, because this file would be not physically available. What I can do, it's picking up an item from my to-do list: the downloads history log: every time you complete a download or conversion, the app would write an entry in a log file, then easily viewable from a (side) menu entry. So you can keep track of everything.
[Android Apps and Games] leswgnr:
1) Found the setting. Thanks. One man's feature is another man's ,', Whaddjya do that for?' :)

2) While I don't agree leaving the entries in the dashboard is bad, (I do it all the time now),a history file would suffice for my purposes, although I would probably continue my current practice of deleting the files while leaving the entry in dashboard. Seems easier to utilize.

Thanks for the consideration. Great app.
[Android Apps and Games] EmptySD:
Thank you for application. I tested few od them but this one is really the best.

Downloading from google with share button works excellent.

App crash when you search some song and want to edit text in search box.

In this version you can download mp3 and quality is grate. I had problem with 1st version with file format.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Hello!

Thanks for the info.

I'm sorry I'm not sure I completely understood the crash issue, nor the last problem regarding file formats.

If you want you can send me a logcat, enabling first the logging feature in settings.
[Android Apps and Games] EmptySD:
I sent you logs via email

Crash:

When you open application, enter song name, and you click once again to change missed letter, application crash.

Wrong file format:

Problem with old version:

When you download song as selected mp3, it download as m3a file format. That file is ok to be played in phone but it doesnt work when you copy it in computer.

I am using LG D855 with Lollypop
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Logcat received.

Unfortunately, the method used on your phone is the "alternative" method. So I can't see the crash stacktrace. On the other hand, there are no entry about the audio download issue.

Anyway the info are sufficient to take a look at what's happening. Don't worry.

Thanks for the report.
[Android Apps and Games] Lycidias:
Can you add an Option to restart stopped Downloads? My dashboard is full of incomplete Downloads :/
[Android Apps and Games] mp3deviant721:

[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
[MENTION=5073877]Lycidias[/MENTION]

If for "incomplete" you mean downloads labeled as "queued", it's one part of the beta still WIP. They are downloads left in queue when the app is closed in background by the system while downloading.

No fix, for the moment(*).

This will work hopefully better in the next stable version, in two ways:

1) if the system closes YTD when something is "queued", it will appear as "paused". Thus you just need to "resume" it.

2) I'll add a "wake lock" as a dirty workaround to prevent Android from closing the app while it's downloading stuff.

(*) unless you carefully edit this file (root file explorer and editor OR adb shell needed - kill the app first):

/data/data/dentex.youtube.downloader/app_json/dashboard.json

and change every "QUEUED" into "PAUSED", looking at the strings:

"status": "QUEUED",

If you change case, add spaces, miss a character etc it will not work.

After that you can "resume" any download.
[Android Apps and Games] Lycidias:
Thank you! But this file only contains "COMPLETED" entrys
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
If you have only COMPLETED entries, how do you have incomplete entries too? :confused:

Screenshot?
[Android Apps and Games] Lycidias:
Sorry, my Bad. Needed to use another text Editor.

It's working. But it says that the file is already downloaded
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
It's not possible, I just tried, reproducing the exact scenario. Unless you actually have an incomplete file in the destination download with the same name. This is the only reason if it says "file already added". Browse there and remove the offending file (it ends with .download). Then RESUME as before.
[Android Apps and Games] Lycidias:
Thank you :)

Could you add an Option to download playlists via url in the Future?
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Do you mean it worked?

Maybe! ;)
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
A new beta is out, with a few changes:

v4.4-beta-8 - Nov 23 2014

when I try to send the logcat it says 'no app can preform this action'
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
It's just this beta? Or also before?

This action should bring up a chooser with only app that can handle emails.

Why are you sending the log?
[Android Apps and Games] yakie996:
i don't know never used it before today i'm using the latest beta. I have Gmail installed and it does not show up. when i tried to download something i got a download failed toast. but now I remember that kitkat didn't allow access to the sd card so I installed a xposed module and now it works like a sharm! :)
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Ok. 1 out of 2. If you want to access the log anyway, browse to /sdcard/Android/data/dentex.youtube.downloader/files and check if you have logcat.txt or alt_logcat.txt. You could try to send them anyway so I can have a look, if you don't mind. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] mp3deviant721:

[Android Apps and Games] berdugo:
Really helped me a lot since tubemate can't download videos from vevo and this one does. Thanks! But still hoping a more faster download like tubemate. It has some functionality of multidownload. I can't explain actually but it is blazing fast even in a large files.
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Yes the search method is different. If you want to directly download from YouTube use the "share" button and choose YTD.

I know what you mean. It's a long time wanted feature for me too. I have a branch in my YTD code with some experiments, but then I slowed a lot; it's quite stalled at this time, waiting to finish features from the beta.

Just a note for those who installed 4.4 beta 8 over the 4.3.3. Muxing VO (1080p 60fps) with AO may not work. It just hangs doing nothing. What helped me was to go to Settings/Applications - YTD: clear cache, clear data, uninstall and

reboot

. Then install fresh beta 8. Now it successfully muxed VO with AO downloads creating MUX file.

Hi there and thank you for this app!

Device: s3 i9300,

Rom: Bliss Pop 3,2

The app searches good, from you tube I share a video to the app, however from the latest Sound Hound can not share. The app produces the error pop up.

Congrats and respect!!
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Thanks for your test.

Well, I don't know the app Sound Hound (I suppose it's an app, right? maybe it's related to SoundCloud; just a guess) but you can share towards YTD only from YouTube (app, website, or just a video link). Important is that you have "http://www.youtube.com/" (and the other related ones; as mobile versions, etc) as prefix. Nothing else, nothing more.
[Android Apps and Games] arena1:
It is an app (sound hound) that used to work with yours.

Anyway, keep up the good work!

Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] xda_dentex:
Thanks, you're welcome.

In this case SoundCloud was "sharing" a supported youtube link, thus intercepted by YTD (actually it's android handling "intents"; but it's to give the idea).

If you want, you can post this kind of links. If there's something going towards youtube.com in any way, I can see if they can be supported again in YTD.
[Android Apps and Games] arena1:
I can't extract anything...sorry. However, If you find the time then maybe you can install Sound Hound(is is a free app from play) and see what's going on.

Thank you!

Will i send some new icons??! To you?!

If you are OK with m4a files, then there's no need to try the mp3 conversion. Enable "secondary streams" from prefs and download m4a formats directly.
