TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & video

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

hi

Ok thanks for you prompt and helpful reply.

I think a ‘convert in the background’ switch in the option panel would be brilliant.

I’ve already set my codec options in the convert panel. I always want it to convert my files according to the options I've set so it’s hard to see why it would need to keep opening.

I could open the interface itself I needed to. Presently the interface opens automatically for no real purpose , as far as I can see.

If I have several small downloads the interface keeps popping up every time it starts download and every time it finishes one. All I will do is to close it again , as I don't need it to open.

I have 10 small files downloading , and I want them all to be converted I just don't need a popup each time one starts converting and each time one finishes. I just need it to get on with the converting without me having to make 10 close interface when it starts , and 10 more when it finishes. After a very short time this could become tiresome.

Just my impressions.

:)

How about putting checkbox 'Hide window when converting' on converting dialog? And do you need to know when all your downloaded files become converted when this window is hidden?

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Hi

Thanks very much for getting back.

Yes , a 'Hide Window When Converting' check box on the conversion interface would do the job perfectly.

As long as it was remembered in the program as part of the user settings so that it would always remain ticked.

This would mean that the conversion screen would only open when the user opened it manually from the main interface. As long as the conversion interface doesn't keep popping up all the time. Once I've set the codecs settings I don't need it to open again at all.

Yes it would be helpful to know when downloads were complete somehow , some indication on the main interface. Or I could open the dialog manually to check status I think.

Or , better , the progress column on the main interface could say 'Dowloading' , 'Converting' or 'Done' for each file.

Can I open swf ot html file with it ?

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Yes, TubeDigger uses Internet Explorer ActiveX.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Convert downloads automatically UI functionality was slightly modified in version 2.1.4:
- converting dialog is shown only after start of first downloaded file and after finish of all downloaded files
- for converting profiles without transcoding and audio converting, converting dialog is shown only once after first downloaded file because such converting is enough fast (less than 30 seconds)
- decided not to implement 'Hide Window When Converting' checkbox because there are already enough settings and always hiding converting dialog may confuse users why CPU usage is high, but no action is shown.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

It seems Ustream fixed their web page.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Just want to say once again, Thank you TubeDigger for your swift reply, and sorting my issue out, the support is worth the price of the app.

Thank You

PS had a problem today and it was resloved in 10mins.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Hi

Newly registered user here. Have the full paid version of Tubedigger. Very happy with it so far.

Problem today downloading from a site. I had to pay for a stream from the site. Can watch the stream live on the site but when input into tubedigger it only records about 6 mins of it.

The stream is about an hour long. when it buffers it seems to freeze.

The stream requires a user name and password as proof of payment. But i start it through tubedigger and enter this information and it seems to start off ok.

Any ideas?

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Did you try to record this stream in "Rec Mode"?
You may also send PM with URL of this stream together with login/psw for testing.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Same exact problem as rustbucket. Download mode.
PM sent.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

This stream was successfully downloaded - PM with instructions was sent. Seems the problem was the expiration of cookies.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

This problem is different as in case of rustbucket. It seems to be a case of DRM protection - video is streamed via 1.7 MB chunks and with strange header. Replacing this header with regular FLV header doesn't help - VLC cannot render such file - type of audio and video cannot be determined.

UPDATES: TubeDigger (review 6mos later)

 

Hello everyone. I thought I would provide some updates to my review six months later.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
http://stream-recorder.com/forum/sho...3&postcount=23

UPDATES:
Overall: TubeDigger continues to be the best, MVP application for downloading HTTP and RTMP(E)!

Bullet Points:
--The conversion features built-in have taken over for my standalone conversion program AVS Video Converter because they are faster, well-organized and just right for what I want to accomplish. NOTE: I use AVI4CCChanger to change the 4CHAR from DX50 to XVID for a stubborn media player out there.
--Support has been excellent via this board and PM. TubeDigger is very responsive. Thanks!
--Features have been added at a very rapid pace. New sites, subtitle download, additional bitrate detection have all been improved since my last review.
--Having the addition of RECording mode over Download mode makes TubeDigger compatible with more sites.
--For $25 lifetime updates TubeDigger can't be beat!
--Comparatively, GetFLV is much more expensive, slow and is tied to the version of Flash that one has installed.

From my last review, support for Rhap**** and other music sites have been fine-tuned. Registration method remains the same. I use AVS Remaker to join video segments together. Pop-up and login sites work more reliably now, too.

TubeDigger is gaining in popularity as I am starting to see it discussed on 9Down and AfterDawn. Congrats TubeDigger!

Regards,
heyadam

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

I cant for the life of me get this to work, All i see is the screen telling me I dont have Flash player installed. Regardless of what I do this does not seem to change.
I've downloaded and installed Flash player for IE several times.
I've gone through and made sure im allowing ActiveX scripts.
I've even formated my computer (unrelated to this) and still nothing.

Im able to view the streams in IE that im trying to grab but no luck in TubeDigger.

Im running Windows 7 x64

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

TubeDigger crashes all the time.

Using 2.1.5, on Win7 and Win8

Any recording page, even YouTube causes hard crash with windows forced program closure.

Tried latest Flash, Latest Java, IE 10, IE 9, not allowing recordings over 10 meg, not allowing recording at all, all various options and still nothing

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Dear customers - may you stop discussing using cracked versions of TubeDigger here? Better send email to support and everything will be fixed.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

I'd give it a 9 because it works well when it does work. I haven't tried all sites but it works well with 4oD videos, no fuck ups or nothing in the recordings. The trial version is slow (and buggy-ish for me) but as soon as you put a legit key in there it transforms it

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Please provide URL for that video - very strange situation.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

I had this problem when I tried to use an older version of your software, a message pops up saying this version of flash might not work well with this version of TubeDigger and it didn't pick anything up

I finally gave up trying hacks lol

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Actually, TubeDigger does not depend on version of Flash Player - it simply uses embedded Internet Explorer - please open _http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ in your Internet Explorer and follow on-screen instructions. If still no luck - please provide URL for that video.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Its literally every single page that uses flash, It keeps telling me i dont have flash player installed, be it youtube or antyhing else.

And im not sure if you were refering to me or not but I am not using any cracked version. Im using the trial version downloaded from the webpage.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

First of all install latest Flash Player for IE - open _http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ in your Internet Explorer and follow on-screen instructions.
If still no luck - try to change settings of your antivirus software.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

I have, like I said im able to view the pages in Internet Explorer but not through TubeDigger.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Try to disable/uninstall some extensions/plugins for IE. Try to update your IE to version 9 or 10. Maybe that will help.

Re: TubeDigger

 

Hi

- Question - where is the best place to post general queries etc about Tubedigger?

It seems useful if they are all together but it doesn't make much sense tagging new issues onto the back of existing ones.

What do peple think? Perhaps a new sub forum if that's possible?

R.

Re: TubeDigger Problems with C4 Homeland

 

These episodes are streamed via F4F protocol with DRM protection. Possibly new versions of TubeDigger will support such streams.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Thanks - shame I can't even 'record' them if not d/l them.

Hope the new version(s) manage it!

best wishes

R.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

I think I may have found a bug in the latest version (happened in previous versions as well). If I leave a Tubedigger window open (minimized) for a long period of time with no activity and then exit the program by right clicking on the icon, the Tubedigger.exe doesn't die and instead remains active with 99% CPU usage for a long while before eventually dying (several minutes later). Any idea what might cause this?

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Please provide what sites you browsed before minimizing TubeDigger.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

Also, whats the new enhanced recording mode in 2.2.2 all about?

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

"Rec+ Mode" is enhancement for "Rec Mode" and is intended for cases where "Rec Mode" does not work. Also "Rec+ Mode" supports resuming.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

The problem is not in TubeDigger but in embedded Internet Explorer that TubeDigger uses. Chaturbate.com uses heavy JavaScript and Internet Explorer cannot process it properly, therefore situation "A script on this page is causing your web browser to run slowly" occurs.

Re: TubeDigger review, feedback, suggestions -Download and Record streaming audio & v

 

I downloaded the trial i've had a few issues. one is that there are some videos from amazon prime that are unplayable they seem to download ok but they wont playback i've downloaded others from amazon that are playable but a few that are not I believe the ones that wouldnt playback are using a new version of flash. My other issue is that I cant seem to download the 720p episodes from teamcoco.com it always wants to download the 480p.
