Yes. But it seems to do nothing. No percent, no download, no play at all...

Re: Youtube download script
 

the newest script does not show percentage ... only the spinning bar.
once the bar stops spinning the download is complete.
if you are not getting the magic spinning bar make sure that the string in mytube settings ( preferences - more - youtube-dl) reads "youtube-dl-x -f 5 -o %d -- %s" (minus the quotes)

good luck

Re: Youtube download script
 

Wow. My script does nothing at all. And I think the settings are right.

Mine is same as yours?? Could someone post here the magic script.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Youtube download script
 

the script I am using is from this post:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=418

and the placement and chmod instructions from this post:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=410

you may need the getpass.py script. instructions can be found here:

Re: Youtube download script
 

Thanks.

But I'm unable to download any file from there. I just can see the text of the script.

Thanks again. I had the previous script on MyDocuments folder to avoid permissions troubles. I think this way isn't neccesary the chmod thing, right?

Again thanks. I have already the getpass script because without it even the previous script won't work.

I will try again and let you know.

Best regards.

Right-click the link and save-as. If you are downloading on tablet then long press on the link might bring up save-as, not sure. Or you can use
from a terminal on the tablet. Replace "wget" with "maemo-mini-curl" if you haven't installed it.


Doesn't matter where the file is located, the chmod allows it to be executed without explicitly passing it to the python interpreter.

Re: Youtube download script
 

Thank you all.

Yesterday I was able to get mytube working again. But, IMHO, when the old script was perfect this new one is just very good.
