YouTube Downloader GM

By bob2005euro Last update Aug 10, 2008 — Installed 454 times.


Script Summary: EXPERIMENTAL ONLY - DO NOT USE! Only works in Opera. Instead, use teridon's "YouTube to me v2" which works on both Firefox 3.0.1 and Opera, and was last tested on August 10, 2008: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/12119

Version: 0.0.1

This is an adaptation of script YouTube Downloader by Fábio Domingues aka fnds,
( http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/29184 )
so that it also works with Greasemonkey on Firefox.
It also detects and reports problems if the YouTube page is missing components necessary to enable downloading.

Version 0.0.1
- Works on Opera 9.27 build 8841 Win32 Windows Vista on uk.youtube.com and other sites
- Works on http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=...
- Debugging in progress: as a greasemonkey script installed on Firefox

(Note to myself - see userscripts/listhead.user.js )

Partly a learning exercise, goal to have fully independent script with no need for external sites.
Tries to add a Download link just above YouTube embedded videos, for both Opera and Firefox Greasemonkey.
DOES NOT WORK ON FIREFOX. NOT WORTH EXTENDING THIS.
