Display Youtube Resolutions

Post by bastille »

How can you display the resolution of each link on a youtube video? When I try to download a youtube video, I see so many links but I want to select a specific quality.

In about:config, set flashgot.media.YouTube.remap_stream_quality to true.

Thank you user for your quick reply. I did what you said and now I'm able to see the video qualities when I place the mouse on Flashgot Media. However, on the download manager (both DTA and uget), the video quality is not displayed. All I see is a long url string for each video quality. How can I display the video quality on the download managers?

Err, just select the quality you want from the menu FlashGot offers? I mean, individual menu items under the Available Formats submenu are clickable.

To get to that menu, right-click the FlashGot Media icon on the toolbar/statusbar. Just make sure it's enabled in the settings: FlashGot options -> FlashGot Media (tab) -> Show toolbar buttons (checkbox).

Thanks again user. It seems that I was having this problem because I changed my default download manager to uget. Changed it back to browser(built in) and now I can see the video qualities listed beside each url.
