Flashgot downloads all youtubes previously viewed

Post by blued »

Sometimes I want to download a youtube clip I am viewing, but when I click the flashgot download button, it downloads ALL previous clips I viewed as well. This has been happening for the last few FG versions including latest. Anyway to fix it?

If you view them without changing the page (i.e. by navigating inside the player or through frames), that's normal.
Just right-click and select the clip you actually want to download (they're ordered by access time).

I think I know what he's referring to. Whenever you view a video it will remain in the history until you manually clear it or close the tab from which it was created. This changed in the last week or so. Is this intended behavior or a bug?

The tab? don't you just need to navigate a different page, in order to clear the list?

Nope. The tab history is never cleared automatically. It is only cleared when you do it manually or when closing the tab.
