V-DH doesn't work anymore on MaxStream.video

[a-ghigi]

Your question

Since a few weeks, Video Downloadhelper doesn't work anymore on MaxStream.video

It keeps detecting 20 seconds chunks, one after another, whereas before it detected the full stream

Here's a link to test with: https://maxstream.video/emvvv/7w8b0zxqtjuk

I do not work for VDH. I'm just another user.

My environment is Windows 11 Pro 64-bit version 24H2 build 26100.2314, Firefox 132.0.2 64-bit, licensed VDH 9.1.0.41 beta, CoApp 2.0.20.

I visited the web page whose URL you supplied. VDH recognized nothing. So I let the video play in the web page for about 2 seconds then paused playback. That made VDH recognize something. I downloaded it without incident. The download speed gradually ramped up to a little under 12 million bytes per second (observed in the Windows Resource Monitor), quite an acceptable speed. The file I got was about 946M & it downloaded in about a minute & a half. It played fine in VLC, although I skimmed it, only sampling it at intervals. It had video & audio right to the end of the full 1:41:16 duration.

There are several differences between your environment & mine. You're on Mac, I'm on Windows. You're using Chrome, I'm using Firefox. You're using a general availability VDH, I'm using a beta (which is available only on Firefox). My best guess is that the problem lies in the browser. This would not be the first time something worked better in Firefox than in Chrome. I'm sure you're not willing to switch browsers. Still, it would be an interesting experiment to see if the VDH beta worked on your system. All I can say is it worked on mine.

My best guess is that the problem lies in the browser

Tried with Firefox, got the same result

I'm using a beta

Maybe the next stable release will fix the problem
Meanwhile I found a workaround using JDownloader 2
