Great!

But,I can't install v1.06 and v1.14 both to use adb and package installer.

This log is when I tried "adb install avidd_1.14.apk".

C:\Users\User>adb install C:\Users\User\Downloads\avidd_1.14.apk

4057 KB/s (8128005 bytes in 1.956s)

pkg: /data/local/tmp/avidd_1.14.apk

Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES]

Please fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] gibbsnich:
Working great!

Thanks for your work and especially for the new "paste URL" screen :svetius:
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
I have the following issues:

1. The app is crashing when finalizing the download using the bestvideo option when sharing (attached log).

2. The app crashs if you put it in the background (click the home button, recents...) shortly after adding a link and before the "Loading..." animation appears.

3. The selection menu in the downloads tab only works in the first moment, if you make the selection, click the back icon in the upper left corner and try to select again, the menu will not appear.

4. For some reason the app does not pass the "Loading..." screen when I try to download a vimeo link, but in QPython it works normally, could you take a look?

https://vimeo.com/219696585

And some suggestions:

1. Add the "best" parameter to the share menu. In that case youtube-dl will download the single file that contains the best video and best audio (probably prioritizing the video quality).

2. Some sites do not offer separate video and audio files, so Avidd will not download anything if you share a link of this type of site using "bestvideo" or "bestaudio". It would be nice to add a toast message informing the user in that case.

And seriously, I respect you a lot for bringing youtube-dl in an easy way. Thank you so much for your time and great work!
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Hi, thank you for the deatiled writeup.

Bugs: I think I have already fixed 1 and 3 in 1.14. 2 I have fixed now. 4, I'll look into later.

Suggestions: 1 - the best video option will already do that. 2 - I have added this in 1.16.

New version 1.16 is now available in play Store and xda.

Changes:

- Fixed some crashes and bugs.

[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Hi, can you tell me more? Where did the app stop?
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
[MENTION=4320523]royale1223[/MENTION] I think it would not be appropriate to do my bug report here so I sent you a private message
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Thanks you. It was a valuable pm.

New version 1.18 released:

- Option to copy link and view other formats from download manager.

- Bug fixes.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
I do not want to sound too anxious but v1.18 has not yet appeared here in the PlayStore :silly:

The latest version is still 1.16.2

Edit: Now the last version has appeared. But with the terrible speed of 15KB/s in the initial configuration. If possible consider migrating to another host, github offers direct link
[Android Apps and Games] ztmazhnh:
It's not really useful without actual youtube support. Play version is naturally neutered (thanks Ob- Google!), but version from 1st post doesn't even install on stock S J3 2016.
[Android Apps and Games] psycholyzern:
Keep saying extraction video format failed.
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Early users know what to do.

Thanks, excellent suggestion.

Which site.

I have uploaded 1.18.1 to OP, some minor changes. Please note - version 1.19 in playstore is beta and will be less stabler than 1.18.
[Android Apps and Games] psycholyzern:
Youtube. Btw I updated to the latest and it says Youtube is not supported. I thought the apk uploaded support youtube. Seems that both apk and playstore version does not support youtube?
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
[MENTION=4320523]royale1223[/MENTION] I sent you another private message, I don't know if you have not yet had time to read or if you just didn't notice it. Just letting you know
[Android Apps and Games] mach07:
This app is 80% useless, because what ppl want is to.... DOWNLOAD FROM YOUTUBE. To make use of the youtube-dl and cap the youtube out is plain and simply derp.

You could instead do what ppl do, create 2 versions of it, a capped one to the playstore and a full one in your site, maybe even with another name.

Sorry, nice app and everything, and I understand the effort you must have put it in this build, but is of no use to most (as I assume).
[Android Apps and Games] the_lane:
Doesn't seem to be working with twitch videos.

Specifically

http://www.twitch.tv/beagsandjam/v/248272408

And

http://www.twitch.tv/beagsandjam/v/247478721

It knows it's a twitch video, shows me a thumbnail, has the video title where the download links would be says "no supported video formats found"

Am I doing something wrong here? Last I saw youtube-dl worked with twitch, but the way they change stuff over there I wouldn't doubt it's broken again.
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
That's because all the formats in twitch is in hls/m3u8. I will need to integrate ffmpeg to support that. I'm working on it. However if someone wants to help they may help me compile stripped down static ffmpeg with ssl, aacenc and mp4 muxing support.

It is ad free.
[Android Apps and Games] the_lane:
I see. Thanks for all the hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
I think you'd like to take a look at this:

https://github.com/Khang-NT/ffmpeg-binary-android

And sorry for asking, but will the next version be released soon? You said you had a bug in your algorithm selection of the "best" video, thought you would release a fix soon. Thanks!

Edit: Something I realized a while ago and wanted to ask you is that the more your app is used, the /data/user/0/com.aviddapp.one/files/default.realm file grows. What is the function of this file? Should not it "free up" space after the downloads are completed?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
That looks promising. I'll check it out. Did you compile this?

Will you sign out from beta and reinstall the app please?

That is the app database. It will keep growing unless you delete the downloads or clear data.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
No, I just got to use the precompiled binaries

Does this mean that the stable version is more up-to-date than the beta?

But should not he shrink again? What kind of information does he keep?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
I have disabled the beta actually.

Keeps information about downloads.I might have to something about realm later.
[Android Apps and Games] nec947:

[Android Apps and Games] telenut:
Is it possible to support sites where you have to login?

examples: www.vier.be , www.vrtnu.be , www.vtm.be (all belgium channels...)

There is a windows program that supports it and also works with youtube-dl: https://www.videohelp.com/software/YoutubeVideoDownloader
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Should be able to do this. But will take time.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
[MENTION=4320523]royale1223[/MENTION] Here the latest version of Avidd is stopping the download while in the background. Only works when the app is open in the foreground. I've already deactivated battery optimization, and still the issue persists
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
You are probably limiting background services in developer settings.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
It's not the case. The previous version was working. And the app is not being killed by staying in the background, it just does not download any more, as if the download was paused. But by putting the app back in the foreground, the download resume
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Can't reproduce this. Have you updated your OS? Rooted? Xposed? What version of Android are you running? Anyone else experiencing similar issues?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Beta 3.0.0 rolling out to beta with HLS stream support. [MENTION=6450691]KaMyKaSii[/MENTION]
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
I thought you were not going to release more beta versions, so I unsubscribed. I'm going to sign up for the beta again, thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Samir2298:
The version that you provided in attachments also not support youtube downloading?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
I made a mistake with version codes earlier. That's why I stopped beta. All fixed now.

No.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
[MENTION=4320523]royale1223[/MENTION]

Here's my feedback on beta 3.0.0:

1. The progress percentage does not update on HLS downloads (the notification only changes after the download is complete), but on the other type of download the percentage is normal.

2. The dowload manager of the app is slow and sometimes freezes when the app is in the background, could you consider changing? Other alternatives are mentioned here https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/962

3. The download in the initial configuration is still very slow, but I do not know if it is a problem with the hosting or the download manager

4. The notification design is old, could you update it? Attached is a screenshot of arkTube, as a reference.

As always, thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Thank you. I'll try to implement all your suggestions. Right now I'm trying to add mp3 conversion and video muxing support for video only files. After that.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
I thank you for your dedication and great work :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
[MENTION=4320523]royale1223[/MENTION] In Avidd v3.0.2 beta (version code 1035) no site I've downloaded in previous versions is working, it says that the site is not supported, even though the video preview image appears. Any idea what that might be?
[Android Apps and Games] kaikun97:
Please may I ask why? The XDA version does not need to be compliant with the Google Play ToS surely?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Version 3.0.3 released. Should be supporting youtube now.
[Android Apps and Games] kaikun97:
Ah thank you very much
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
Will this version still appear in the Play Store?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
No, play store is blocking updates so the hell with it.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
I saw that Avidd is no longer available in PlayStore. Will the app now only be available here?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Yes, sadly.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
Just out of curiosity, have you been banned because your app can download YouTube videos or by your code download executables (Python and youtube-dl)?

And could you consider adding an inapp updater? Like this one, for example

https://github.com/javiersantos/AppUpdater
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
It's already there. I will be using this from now on. You'll see notifications in nav bar.
[Android Apps and Games] bew78:
Hello, I feel dumb as I can't find the download link for the last version 3.0.3.

I currently have the 3.0.2 version installed, and I can't update it: playstore says it's up to date and the in-app updater crashes the app..

How can I update? Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
You can find the new apk in the OP or https://github.com/royale1223/Utils/releases
[Android Apps and Games] samuells:
hi man, first of all, awesome app, just what i was looking for, but tell me, there is some reason, that autorotation doesn't work, even when i set just reverse portrait, or is this problem only with me? thanks
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
The app only supports portrait mode.

Can you support downloading v.reddit videos WITH SOUND? Ffmpeg is available for android.
[Android Apps and Games] jaibubwan:
I installed this on my Poptel p9000 phone. It installed properly, and I gave it storage permission. But the app doesn't work at all. I send it YouTube links manually or via the share button...and every download fails. The app makes an effort to download for a few seconds...but always results in failure.
[Android Apps and Games] 73sydney:
If only it supported the sites the desktop PC version does. But it doesn't, so it's next to useless, sadly

Seems the dev purposely poisons it from working like the desktop version....
[Android Apps and Games] maXity:
The dev is certainly not “purposely poisoning it”, and many on this thread find it far from “useless”. Be nice.
[Android Apps and Games] 73sydney:
It's definitely been hogtied from downloading from plenty of sites...I use the official windows build of youtube-dl and have been for ages ..it downloads from every site I regularly use it for....sorry but that's a fact
[Android Apps and Games] gibbsnich:
I didn't try it with too many different services tbh but it worked for me everytime. Just to add one more anecdotical datapoint :)

Do you have any examples?
[Android Apps and Games] 73sydney:
Try any link from

https://iview.abc.net.au

for starters (it's possible you may be geo blocked, but not a concern for me as I'm an Aussie), works 100% with PC desktop youtube-dl....
[Android Apps and Games] gibbsnich:
So e.g.:

https://iview.abc.net.au/show/you-cant-ask-that/series/3/video/LE1717H002S00

I can confirm that one is not working and that's not because I'm geo-blocked.

avidd can parse the site just fine but then there's a failure if I start downloading.

It's just that this seems to be bug without further intentions ;)

You got more examples?

Edit: Just realized it errs out because it misses the ffmpeg binary. Is this supposed to be included? Avidd's error message in this case could show more information I think.
[Android Apps and Games] Rixil 1:
thank you for such awesome app !

i am wondering the files downloaded via the app have sorta ugly name, instead of space there is dash and with the youtube URL and other stuff

cant you provide an option to make it look more normal without dashes ?

also , is there is anyway to be able to download thumbnial and embed it into the file? that would make the app 100x better

i have apk editor *i am kinda noob* and i wish if u could assist me what file should i edit in the APK in order to make the name look little more polished

thanks in advance, have a great day !

[Android Apps and Games] besweeet:
Would be great if this allowed for the manual input of youtube-dl commands.
[Android Apps and Games] Pisanoid:
The app doesn't seem able to update youtube-dl anymore and YouTube downloads are broken. Is this a RIP?
[Android Apps and Games] xnamkcor:
Doesn't seem to support any of youtube-dl's command line options. And it complains when the inputed text isn't a URL, so I can't use playlist IDs or video IDs by themselves.

It seems to have accepted my Playlist URL...and it's...

"Sorry! www.youtube.com isn't supported right now."

I guess i'll just have to go back to using my PC for youtube-dl, since whoever is updating the Qpython app for Android decided to remove the PIP console that worked with youtube-dl.

PS: Seems to be lacking a landscape mode.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
You can use Termux to run youtube-dl

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux
[Android Apps and Games] xnamkcor:
I probably could. But the current reality is that after installing termux, curl, ffmpeg, both pythons, installing youtube-dl manually, and installing youtube-dl via curl, then getting told i dont have permission to use chmod on youtube-dl, using su and then not getting a permission denied notice, but nothing actually happening...termux only ever responds with "youtube-dl not found".

Oh well, Qpython 2.0.x works fine. Thanks for the tip though.
[Android Apps and Games] KaMyKaSii:
Install youtube-dl using pip. I did and it works perfectly

pip install --upgrade [url]https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/archive/master.zip[/url]
[Android Apps and Games] Kapiljhajhria:
Not able to download full hd or higher quality video with audio. This is limitation of some known video Downloader. Arktube merges audio with high quality video. Same should be done with a youtube downloader app.
[Android Apps and Games] xnamkcor:
As much as I'd love to update my install of Qpython just to try that, I'll pass. I only need it to do one thing. And it does that now.

Youtube-dl needs you to specify the quality codes manually and mux them. This GUI doesn't support any command line options, so that's a no-go.

Maybe the author can automate the process of "--list-formats" and then choose the best options to mux. But muxing requires ffmpeg.
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
Hi, I would love if someone can update the youtube-dl binaries regularly for the app from github. Any volunteers?
[Android Apps and Games] dekao:
I can try.

Can you provide us with the last version of the App and code?
[Android Apps and Games] Dhyfer:
Hi [MENTION=4320523]royale1223[/MENTION]

What about Avidd? Are you still in charge of your app? Will Avidd still receive updates? I've been searching for a long time for an application like yours on the Internet, but I have not found any youtube-dl client until now that I met Avidd.

Comments from a year ago indicate that Avidd has apparently stopped working, what's going on? Avidd looks like a promising app, it would be a loss if your app no longer receive updates. :(

So what do you have to say about it?
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
I sometimes don't get the time to update binaries. I usually update it when I want to use it myself. This past year I was too busy with covid stuff. I will update the binary today itself.
[Android Apps and Games] royale1223:
You can easily update binary in 4-5 simply command line steps. If you are still interested please email me. royale1223 [at] gmail . com

[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rotpeter:
Hey guys. Thanks for the guide, I'm stuck however. I installed the latest global developer ROM in order to root and flash twrp, but there is no native option to root the ROM. What am I doing wrong? Bootloader is unlocked with xiaomi approval. Or is root China Rev ROM exclusive? If yes, the op should make that very clear, so that even dimwits like me understand it. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] parphane:
Hi there,

I did not use global ROM, true, don't know if possible with it.

Did you perform this step?

- Connect to WIFI

- Setting > Permissions > Root access

- Activate root access

The phone will then download a bunch of things and reboot.

After that you will be able to install TWRP and give it root access.

If not, tell me, I will update guide,

and you can reinstall Chinese ROM, to complete process, a matter of a few minutes. ;)

Let me know
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rotpeter:
Thanks for your help! I already fixed in in the meantime, though. The permissions app only shows the root-button, if you are on the Chinese dev ROM. Which I wasn't (global one instead). Maybe you should add some extra weight to that in the guide. Other than that, it worked like a charm! Thanks buddy!

Edit: Sorry, didn't see that you pretty much already wrote all of that. :D

Hello there,

I need a little help : I get stuck trying to install the latest Chinese developper ROM.

I get a "ping target failed" error, as seen in the pic here : http://hpics.li/32bd109

Can you help me please ?

Galdanor
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] parphane:
Hmm, never seen that one,

Just to be sure, you did the following steps:

- Restart computer as per section: Windows 10 "Disable driver signature enforcement"

[...]

- Reboot to recovery, power off, power on "Vol. up" + "Power"

- Touch "Download" button (screen goes black)

- Plug-in USB cable

- Open Miflash tool... (this I know you did cause of the screen capture)

Do you have any devices identified as not properly installed in the Window peripherals?

Maybe try and install Android tools (also in the tuto) before and try to issue commands to your device.

Also, Googling "ping target failed xiaomi" I found that: http://en.miui.com/thread-354050-1-1.html

You might want to use older tool version.

Let us know
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Galdanor:

Maybe you did something wrong cause most of the people here on XDA have no issue.

Try using an older ROM, or clean install... let us know!
