[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
the issue has been fixed in latest release v0.9.2

server side change by youtube broke it.

enjoy!
[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
it was partially because of missing title. i have made changes in latest release which will continue to download videos even if it cannot find title or similar data again in the future.
[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
the .ogg was changed to .webm, because it was a dirty hack.

while it may fix issue on some phones (like Samsung) which doesn't support .webm container as audio for some reason, it may create issue on other phones; as all it was doing it was renaming the file with .ogg extension.

but, the actual container type which is provided by youtube is webm. so the only proper way of fixing it, without creating other problems, would be to re-mux the file to .ogg. i.e. transfer the original opus/vorbis audio from webm container to new ogg container, which will take additional time.

would you like me to add that?

Just wanted to show my appreciation for the dev [MENTION=3359381]DSM_[/MENTION]

I received a mail this morning from the dev in reply to my crash report saying the issue was fixed. While i haven't updated the app yet, i cannot even begin to imagine the effort it must take to maintain such a great app, AND still reply to your user base individually. There are popular paid apps that don't do this, so great going dev, thanks for a great app and keep up the good work ?
[Android Apps and Games] Nihal @A-JAX:
It's good to have as long as you are re-muxing & not re-encoding.

May be an option in the settings or download window (in format extension text box which is greyed out in recent versions) would be great. Currently I'm renaming after every download. Main problem for me is files with .webm extension are not getting detected by my music player.

And thanks a lot for the app & regular updates. Using it from more than a year now...
[Android Apps and Games] solonicity:
I just upgraded to the latest 0.9.2 and for the first time I keep getting "Merge error" on videos. I tried different resolutions but all were mp4 and some would work and some would work after not working but there were just too many errors. In the download folder I had many audio files of 0 bytes.

I tried with ymusic and had no errors.

How to fix it?

BTW, dash is for streaming, correct? Is that something desirable I would want to download?

I used to try webm given the good value of it (q/size) but bizarrely for Google's own OS, so many players didn't play it, it seems. Do people avoid webm or like it?
[Android Apps and Games] Drakhai:
Hi. I just wanted to say I love your app. Been using it for almost a year, I think. Thank you ?
[Android Apps and Games] peterj19:
Hi I'm using this app from years. And loved it very much..

I do download into mp3 but only only 320kbps is available pls do add 240 also thank you
[Android Apps and Games] iHack13:
Great Job DSM_ . Still using your Downloader. Works fine on Android 10.

Happy to see that you improved the UI.

So far there are 2 major negative points :

- still no paid option (to remove ads. Ads got even worse now and no option to hide them by watching an ad once ). I keep repeating this one . I want to pay

- it's still restricted to YouTube . Twitch would be nice. ( I thought it would work for twitch too because of the integrated browser implementation)
[Android Apps and Games] dorpmuller:
As of today won't download on multiple devices. Can't extract link, no video found. Pricks at youtube changed something. And no, Snaptube hasn't worked for years. Gettube was the last, and only one that ever worked.
[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:
YouTube did change something. youtube-dl, which this app relies on, has already implemented a working fix. Just a matter of the dev to include it in an update.
[Android Apps and Games] VeEuzUKY:
Absolutely phenomenal YT player and downloader.

Needs a DARK THEME to be the perfect app!
[Android Apps and Games] dorpmuller:
Ah. Cool-thank you! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:
Looks like the app is back to working, without updates.

Is it safe to login to YouTube account through GetTube? If yes, why?

[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:

It's obvious: because I have to enter my personal Google data.

If you're that paranoid, reverse engineer the app. I think it's fine.

Are you serious?? This is a discussion forum, and I only asked a legitimate question.
[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:

[Android Apps and Games] LakshayMothwal:
Testing

Downloaded and works perfectly so far.
[Android Apps and Games] marciozomb13:
Do you really expect in the app thread, someone say the app is unsafe? Even if someone say yes, how will you be sure? All these years of publishing and the fact here is xda means something.
[Android Apps and Games] rogxd:
For this reason I asked "if yes, why?".

If everything is obvious, then what is the forum for? :(
[Android Apps and Games] alagga:
Is there a possibility to fetch ID3 tags from the YouTube Title Name?

In the Form: [Artist] - [Title] from the YouTube Title Name

Actually it's setting YT-Channelname as Artist and YT-Videotitle as Title, which mostly results in wrong ID3 tags ?
[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
i think it's a fair question.

if you are concerned about someone knowing your password through such apps, i think that's a lame way to hack your account, because you will know it instantly. and usually such attacks are targeted to very different people, certainly not on xda.

btw, still if are want more security 2FA should be enough.
[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
that will work only on very few videos. right way to do it should be adding a screen to edit ID3 tags while adding new download, with attempt to parse video title as you suggested. so even if it fails or parses it wrong, one can modify it as required.
[Android Apps and Games] alagga:
The best way to get correct ID3-TAGS should look like this:

1. Check if there's "Music in this Video". If yes get the tags from there, if no go to 2.

2. Check if Videotitle matches the structure ".... - .... ". If yes get the tags from the title as [Artist] - [Title]. If no go to 3.

3. Set Channel-name as Artist and Videotitle as Title.

This should get the correct ID3-TAGS in 99% of all Music on YouTube.

Guys, please post review for this. If you like it, share it with your friends.

And also please suggest any feature you want to see in this app.

Tell me if you are interested.

Hello DSM,

Can you please provide me the source code of this app?
[Android Apps and Games] OT-Xtreme:
any changelogs?

tnx for new version
[Android Apps and Games] SenK9:
Great app, works very well, clean and neat, without requiring add-on apps for audio download. I prefer it to the bloated and ad-ridden Tubemate.
[Android Apps and Games] markpab:
Works great on my s6 Edge, much faster than You tube downloader with no donate adds every 5 or so downloads. Overall really good app.

[Android Apps and Games] sturmen:

[Android Apps and Games] SaschaHa:
This is my favourite Youtube downloader (after testing a lot of others). Keep up the excellent work :)

Is it possible to add 60 fps support?
[Android Apps and Games] Alhaddad:
great app.. is mp3 format supported? i tried many videos, it only shows aac.
[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
Thanks.

60fps is supported. If you can't see 60fps videos try enabling "Show all formats" in settings. Even though it will show >720p 60fps videos without enabling it.
[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
I will add mp3 support soon. Btw, AAC is superior in quality.
[Android Apps and Games] Ragnar Eldur:
That's the last codec you wanna choose. OPUS/WEBM is the best one with most smartphone support and the M4A/AAC is the second best with complete support by modern devices.

YouTube does not provide or host MP3 files so the download era out the just convert M4A to MP3, that's all.
[Android Apps and Games] Grander0:
Yeah, this. I think that's how TubeMate used to do it.
[Android Apps and Games] alagga:
Thanks for the tip, Tubemate seems to work fine :)
[Android Apps and Games] BLUEPOP:
can i download a playlist in mp3? if so can someone tell me how?

Some videos can't be viewed/downloaded

There's currently an issue on a lot of videos (not all) where the loading of info fails with either a snackbar or a toast "YouTube link extraction error: This video is not available". I can easily download the affected videos on my desktop or my laptop with youtube-dl though.

[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
Can you give me more information? downloading AAC seems to be working fine for me. Does the app crash when downloading AAC for you?

Yes, it crashes when AAC download starts. Audio download to format OPUS seems to work.

[Android Apps and Games] DSM_:
hey! Thanks for the logs. It looks like the issue is with the Android's inconsistent Document File API. I should be able to fix, but you may need to test it on your device, because it doesn't look like the standard behavior. (e.g. this doesn't happen in AOSP Emulators).

Also, try, this: Before starting new download, on the screen where you can change filename and the path of the file, press on path, and select external, and browse through directories to internal/external SD card and allow the access to that directory and see if app still crashes.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] vencis_cz:

[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
For anyone wondering, I've checked, and these issues are due to how YouTube keeps changing their API.

Most software like GetTube rely on the library youtube-dl to make use of this API, and thus, youtube-dl needs to be updated very frequently.

Currently, my only recourse is to recommend people use NewPipe, as it instead relies on a fork of youtube-dl especially made for it, and is usually more stable, though not all of it's features are available yet, such as the DASH protocol (there is preliminary work towards it, but nothing concrete yet).
[Android Apps and Games] aneeskamuhammed:
The only feature missing in other YouTube downloaders is subtitle integration in download videos. Otherwise newpipe is a great alternative ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Android Apps and Games] positive_being:
For some time I've facing some issues in the app

1. Instead of channel name "null" is showing below the title in download list.

2. While parsing a playlist it shows no video in the playlist hence No video shows for downloading

My suggestion

1. There should be check boxes to select the video if anyone wants to download multiple videos which are not the part of any playlist (as in videoder app).

Thanks

Installed. It's staying. I love how it hooks into YouTube's mobile site for easier browsing of things like playlists (now only if it could automatically download videos in playlists). It's the best downloader I've been able to find for Android. An option to disable autoplay would be nice, though.
[Android Apps and Games] moriel5:
I have definitely enjoyed GetTube, as it works a lot better than TubeMate, it's just sparse on features and website compatibility, which is understandable, since GetTube is still new.

Could you add background music streaming?

That is not GetTube, and has nothing to do with it.

It is a scam page which claims to be the official page of TubeMate, which it's not (I am a former TubeMate user, and I have been on the official site before, so I should know).
