Flashget 3.7

Post by floydhead73 »

I have installed Flashget v3.7 and Flashgot and, to be sure, have tried reinstalling them both. Flashgot doesn't seem to be detecting Flashget. When I open the option to select a download manager for Flashgot, only older versions of Flashget are shown as available. I tried designating a new download manager and gave the path as the Flashget exe file, but that only pulls up the window and doesn't start the download. I'm also supposed to be able to copy the file url and download that way, but this doesn't seem to work properly on several sites. Example: FilePost lists the file url, but entering that file url in Flashget only downloads a (gasp!) html file, or a inexecutable .mov file if I remove the backslash. I'm doing something wrong, and I have no clue what it might be.

Did you check whether FlashGot's "FlashGet 2.x" definition works with 3.7?

It does not work, either. Flashget has no problem detecting a download in IE, but only if it's a direct download link. Firefox does not detect the download although it may be a direct download link.

Do you mean the "Download all with FlashGet" work in IE or not?

I too have problem with Flashget 3.7.0.1195.
When I select "Flashgot Selection", Flashget will be prompt but the Add New Download window in flashget won't open.
I will then need to manually copy the url and paste it in flashget to get it working
Please help

I have very similar issue with FG, hopefully we'll get the answer soon!

Please check latest development build 1.4rc1. Both "FlashGot 2" and "FlashGot 2.x" built-in support modules should work.
