GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

GETFLV 98.229.5.8, Windows 7 Pro

GETFLV appears to be completely broken for Hulu capture. It will not capture anything but ads.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Downgraded to 98.185.18.
Was able to download the Daily Show and start the download of movies. The movies may stall during the download. But the latest version 98.229.5.8 doesn't even capture anything but the first ad (sometimes). Other than that it stalls.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Anybody got a fix for the stutter at the beginning of FLV videos downloaded from Hulu with GetFLV? When opened in Avidemux, non of the files can be seeked by frames after exactly 656 milliseconds, i.e. every frame after that is ignored until 05.088 seconds. GetFLV's built-in FLV Fixer doesn't do anything, remuxing a file to MP4/MKV with ffmpeg/mkvmerge doesn't work either. The only thing that seems to work is Replay Media Catcher's "Fix Interval" option of "Fix FLV" tool, but the video gets slowed down. Any other solutions?

Thank you in advance.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

I don't seem to have this problem. I always install the latest version before using.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Search for, download, and use FLVExtract on the FLV file which will separate the audio and video streams, then use mkvmerge/mkvToolNix to combine them back together into an mkv and the stutter will be gone.

Also, just downloaded the latest (date stamp of the file in the ZIP is 10/18/2015) version 9.8.233.88 and it's working with Hulu - 1000K for SD and 1900K for HD streams.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

What does FLVExtract do that simply importing the FLV into MKVToolnix does not?

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

I and numerous other people experience an annoying delay at the beginning of each Hulu FLV that GetFLV downloads as described by Rancher above. The file plays for about half a second, then freezes for a few seconds, then picks up where it left off. As a result, when using MediaInfo, the frame rate is listed as Variable instead of Constant. FLVExtract corrects the video timing to make it the proper constant frame rate and eliminates this delay. If there is a simpler way to eliminate this extra step, please let us know. But it sounds like you are not experiencing this, so I'm guessing you have no need for using it.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Thanks for the clarification. I haven't experienced this so I was curious.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Has there been any update as to lower quality of HD downloads? As the only options that turn up for me are: RTMP, 1000k, 1900k.
Is both RTMP and 1900k the best of the options available?
What about the original 3500kbps? They surely can't have lowered the quality of all their videos! Even original ones are showing at 1900k now when they were previously of higher quality

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Install latest GetFLV to check hulu's capture and resume problem again. :cool:

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Now it is only giving one stream option, and it's always called "Lightningcast Ads - PreMidPost". The bitrate is different each time, for example http://www.hulu.com/watch/854100 the stream is 2000_h264, which I believe is the same as the previously available 1900K stream; for http://www.hulu.com/watch/859149" the stream is 3200_h264, and for SD content, like http://www.hulu.com/watch/677494 the stream is 1000_h264.

Subtitles now are no longer being downloaded.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

1. Install latest version to check title and subtitles problems.
2. GetFLV can only capture best format.:cool:

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

@getflv Is anything being done for shows provided via Cable subscription? All i get is a spinning white wheel.

http://www.hulu.com/watch/856725 is an example.
http://www.hulu.com/watch/855813 is another example.

thanks!

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Why can it no longer capture the additional different streams that are available?

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

"Because GetFLV is the best" :D

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Sometimes the highest stream isn't always desirable, can you make it so that all stream options are available.

New issues with latest version (9.8.258.88):

(1) doesn't "release" the .flv file after download is complete because vdigger.exe is operating in the background until GetFLV is closed down.
(2) Episode title is displaying for the stream name, but series title isn't.


Also, can you tell us whether Hulu has taken away the highest quality streams, or if it's that they're still available but GetFLV cannot access them?

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

I also noticed that there were multiple instances of vdigger.exe running in v233 even when I exited the GetFLV program and it was killing my processor. I only noticed it when I heard the cooling fan running constantly and I checked task manager and sure enough, there were about 10 instances of vdigger.exe running with all four processors maxed at 100%. Definitely want to check into why that's happening too.

Have the subtitles returned to being downloaded?

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Don't think I downloaded v233 so the latest version is the only one I've noticed it on. Each new stream downloaded means another instance of vdigger.exe running in the background.

Subtitles are being downloaded though :)

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

They are not using methods GetFLV will implement.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

It works great when you specify the average interval of the video (which is shown in the column). Thanks for the FLV Extract method too, DoctorRockzo.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Hey getflv, I downloaded video from hulu with lastest version.
But can you fix to download 1500K bitrate from hulu? I just see 1000K and 2000K bitrate. I love 1500K bitrate, please!

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

I can't buy GETFLV :((

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Get a job.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

9.8.233.88 no longer lists any streams. Downloaded 9.8.271.88 and now the only streams listed are 1000K and 2000K. I guess they keep switching up the stream quality to keep us on our toes.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

It may just depend on what you are trying to watch. Exclusives seem to have 6 or so qualities available still.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Suggestions?

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Dear GetFLV

A question?

When I try to download episods longer then 1 hour, they stop around 70%

Like http://www.hulu.com/watch/848297
Downloaded 368.88MB from the file of 525.87 MB and it stops

I don't know if it's a hulu problem, but all other episodes longer then 1 hour stop, and never finish

If you can fix it, please do :)

Thanks

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

I would like a refund under the advertised 30 day money-back guarantee. I bought getFLV on 11/03/2015.

Please, begin the refund process.

Thanks

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

How to download subtitles with the latest GETFLV version? Thanks for your help.:)

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Hi getFLV

Why don't you answer me ??

I would like a refund under the advertised 30 day money-back guarantee. I bought getFLV on 11/03/2015.

So for the second time, please, begin the refund process.

Thanks

You need to follow the proper contact procedures. This forum isn't the place for order support. From their site:

If you have order problems and questions, let us help you.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Still having issues with shows over an hour stopping during downloading, and not in the same place every time. For example:

http://www.hulu.com/watch/389240

I've tried this five different times and it stops anywhere from 64.1% to 72.3%, so I think it's safe to say that it's not the actual file itself, but instead a problem with GetFLV. In the past, the download could be paused part of the way through, and then restarted which would usually then complete successfully, but this no longer works.

This has been mentioned numerous times before with no fix or even acknowledgment that GetFLV support is aware of or addressing this issue. Would appreciate a response that this is at least getting looked into.

Thanks.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Just tried it two more times and it stopped at 73.9% the first time, 65.8% the second. I know I'm not the only one with this issue, as numerous other posts from other users can attest to.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Already done! but no response! It's not serious!

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

It used to be able to recover on its own after stalling, but that was many versions ago.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Can i disable google chrome from popping up a window outside gflv? I am trying to get some videos from mindedgeonline.com for school, but it keeps popping up a window outside of getflv and errors out. Mindedge needs a redirect directly from my school's site.

Thanks

Please try latest version.:cool:

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...

 

Got to 80% this time before it stopped. At least one user here has been able to download it fully, but that seems to be the exception, not the rule. I'm in the U.S., while that user is not and used a proxy. Any suggestion on a proxy to use that Hulu won't flag as a known one?

On a different note, I'd like to make a suggestion in regard to HD streams - when there is an HD version available for a show, the PC will only make the 2000K stream available. However, higher quality streams are available on other devices such as an iPad (but the "emulation" of an iPad in GetFLV doesn't reveal these higher quality streams either), with the only difference being the final characters in the filename which are the quality of the stream. So if there is a 2000K stream listed on the PC, there is most likely a 3200K stream available. If there would be any way that GetFLV could make the higher streams available for downloading by manipulating the filename (replacing 2000 with 3200), that would be really great.

This program used to be much better than it currently is. No idea why it has gone downhill so badly.
