Hi, I've been using Flashgot for a while now, and it works great. That is until this last Thursday when all my attempts to save vids from Youtube (and ONLY Youtube) have resulted in empty 0 byte files. I've tried updating FF, removing and reinstalling Flashgot, waiting til the vid fully loaded and saving from the cache... all to no avail.

Strangely I am able of save a YT vid that is embedded in a web page, but if I click through to it's source on Youtube I only get the empty 0 byte file.

I've heard that Youtube sometimes alters their code to mess with download programs, do you know if this is the case?

Thank you for your time.

Can I see the exact page where this happens?
Also, did you try letting the video play fully before starting the donwload?

Hi, maybe i got it wrong...but flashgot doesnt have the ability to convert youtube videos to mp3? The flashgot link F2 seem to ve inactive for me (i dont even know if i need it :p)...Also what about videos? I can download any video from any site? Sorry for my questions but programs are like a foreign language to me.

Sory, i meant Cntrl+F1 choise, is inactive for me.

In order to download Youtube videos, you should use "FlashGot Media" (ctrl+F7)
