GetEmAll! sniffed video

Unread post by Wrolf » 2022-09-13, 22:57

Hi! How should I handle download of "sniffed videos" (Like for instance YT)
Starting Getemall gets me a lot of downloadables, among those the first, the web address with the red yt icon with an arrow in it, and then a lot of other stuff, and then several files described as "sniffed video":
Which should I mark for download? Or have I missed something? The sniffed videos started showing up very recently afaik.

Sample web address:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOxVASJ8TmE

PM 31.2.0.1 64 bit
addons et c: only GetEmAll! newest version
W7 64bit

best regards/Wrolf

Getemall is designed to download actual links to physical files, not video streams.

Does that mean that it doesn't work any longer on yt, or what specifically should I mark for download?
cheers/W

Edit: I downloaded one of those sniffed videos (at a rate of 3 KB/s). That gave me video, but no sound (played in vlc.). This seems impractical, for certain values of impractical. :crazy:

It doesn't work, period. The function for selecting videos refers to direct links to video files, not streamed content. Streams aren't physical files. There are other tools available if you want to download and save Youtube videos locally.
