If you want a different format, do aĭownload and Convert or do a straight Download & do a Convert after that completes. The file extension alone when you use VDH to do a download. On Firefox, click the 3-stripes icon at the top right then click Add-ons, on Chrome, click the 3-dots icon at the top right then click More Tools > Extensions. No matter what, I am going to continue to advise that you leave First make sure, Video DownloadHelper is really installed in your browser. Sure, it gives you a file that plays fine, at least in this case. My conclusion is that changing the file extension in the VDH dialog DOES NOT CONVERT the file from One big difference is with Chrome, as the Edge flavour allows downloading videos from YouTube. Information in ffprobe.txt for comparison. Congratulations, you just installed Video DownloadHelper 7.6.0.0 for Edge Video DownloadHelper is now available for Edge Chromium If you already were a user of our extension on Firefox or Chrome, you will see the Edge version works the same way.

InĬontrast, I've provided the same information for a real MP4 I have here. You'll note that there's not much significant difference between the alleged MP4 & the MKV. These results are in attached images #2 & #3.

Windows Properties and VLC's Media Information. The results are in the attached file ffprobe.txt. First, I modified the fileĮxtension from MKV to MP4. In any case, I downloaded the video 2 ways.

I'm going to guess this is due to a combination of YouTube doing thingsĭifferently today compared to 2 years ago plus changes in VDH, many in reaction to changes foisted You can see in the attached image #1 below how different But your comment inspired me to experiment with this. I have been in the habit of advising that you should never change the file extension when you do a In any case, if you have left the box for the VDH setting 'Ignore protected variants' at its default, meaning if you have left it checked, those variants will not appear in the VDH menu. I don't know, pay YouTube some money, I suppose. You can't access that particular variant unless you. This indicates that the variant is locked. Now you can see that the little indicator looks like a lock. I'm showing a blowup of one of them in attached image Blowup.png. I highlight the relevant bits in attached image Indicators.png. If you leave the check on that box, it will reduce the number of variants you will see in the main VDH menu shown in attached image Variants.png. The changed color shows that I have changed the setting from its default. The default for this setting is that the check box is checked, as you can see in the image from its color. Scroll down until you see the settings shown in attached image Behavior2.png. That will give you the Behavior page of VDH settings as shown in attached image Behavior1.png. This will give you the display shown in attached image VDHSettings.png. In any case, you can hover the mouse over the gear & the 'Settings' tool-tip will appear. Worse, even though you should have dropeed everything to fix this, you have not. Such a simple, basic, fundamental problem should never have been allowed into a product released to the public. This sort of inattention to obvious GUI issues is a black eye for the development team (and I probably mean Michel when I say this).

When the VDH menu is long enough, as it is in this case, all the VDH buttons & controls at the bottom of the menu are at least partially cut off, sometimes completely.

It is shameful that this bug has been allowed to persist for well over a year since the first time I complained about it. This is due to a bug I take every opportunity to point out. You can see it is partially obscured in the attached image Settings.png. You do that by clicking the little gear icon in the bottom right corner of the VDH menu. Next you should open VDH's settings dialog. (Click each image to see a magnified, legible version of the image.) You'll notice there's a bunch of entries. I got what you can see in attached image Variants.png. How can I make this plugin work with Firefox 100.0.2 on Ubuntu 22.04?ĮDIT: Same question for 21.10, with possibly useful answers.I went to the video & opened the VDH menu. If you go into the plugin configuration, there's a Recheck button in the 'Verifying Companion App.' section, but clicking it does not seem to do anything.

When the app installs, it reports that it's installed correctly: # sudo. deb package as per the instructions on OMG Ubuntu install Firefox as a. Suspecting it was the sand-boxing used in the Firefox snap package, I removed that and used the. (I did not find a satisfactory answer in this related question.) However since I upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04 it can not ever find the 'Companion App' it needs to work. The venerable Firefox Plugin ' Video Download Helper' has been a mainstay of internet video downloading for years.
