New VDH update v10.0.112.2 not working for Live Video properly

[ernandoal]

Your question

Old version when downloading live videos and interruptions occurred, the cache video was saved and the video was not lost, now with this new version, if the live video is interrupted or there is a problem with the connection, an error appears and everything that was being downloaded is lost!

Addon & CoApp version and details

Version v10.0.112.2 does not have CoApp any more!

Hi,
Can you share the URL of the video you tested?

Hi Admin, with the utmost respect intended - no jokes

The "report" button when a download crashes on these sites? Do you get it? Does it show anything besides that we're all healty humans and watching streaming services which content is not static and changes per show / stream etc etc hence the "can't really give you something that is in the past" kinda effect? :(

The app used to be AMAZING 🥇 when if would not delete the "cache" (where ever it kept it) as soon as there is browser refresh or go over from an event to a ppv screen (where the browser doesn't need to refresh but it happens anyway) or it gets a fright lols.
It rescued the file and even made it watchable until the unfortunate event.

If this was a once-off or even a "predictable" event it would've been so easy to troubleshoot, I know.

BUT, here is a site: chaturbate.com open a couple of tabs, record and wait. one of them will fail eventually. Hope this helps.

P.S.
No human, child, animal or my Mac (yes with Edge on it for the VideoDownloader lols) was harmed while typing this comment (which turned into a letter).

I wonder if it would work properly again if we installed an older version until this is fixed ?

Also, see my comment here in a discussion with a similar issue > #2418

Please update to VDH Version 10.0.117.2

I updated, but still fails to download partial live streamings. The old version (vdhcoapp) worked fine when downloading live streamings. When streaming stops for any reason, the cached video was saved and you could start the download again, now it gets an error informing the download fails and the cached video is lost!

I fixed it - I hope to update the version next week! Sorry for the bug :/

I checked version 10.0.145.2 and I'm still having the same issue! Unfortunately, no new versions of Edge, Chrome, or Firefox are working for live streaming. I have an older version that works for Opera (it's not a compatible extension) and I'm using it, and it's working fine, but it's still the CoApp version. This saved my live streaming downloads! Opera doesn't automatically update incompatible extensions, thank goodness!

Where is it happening ?

If you see the message from @scorpias above, try to follow the web site and steps informed, you'll see the problem.

Hello, I have a Setapp subscription and one of the apps are called “Downie”. https://setapp.com/apps/downie Some details: "Find a video you want to download, then drag and drop the link into the app, or take advantage of a Downie browser extension doing it for you. That’s literally all it takes to get that video on your Mac. Downie lets you download YouTube videos and save video content from hundreds of other websites, including Facebook, Vimeo, and Instagram. It’s simple and swift, so you can get the job done within seconds — without being overwhelmed by the features you don’t need. Download YouTube videos Downie lets you download from YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Instagram, and over 1,200 other websites. If there’s video content on a web page, you can trust Downie to save it onto your Mac. Search right in the video downloader No need to switch from Downie to your browser to search for the content you want. Type the search query into the app’s search field, and it will promptly find the video for you. Save 4K YouTube videos Unlike many other YouTube downloaders, Downie can handle even 4K resolution videos. That means you can download high-quality, high-definition videos from YouTube or anywhere else on the web. Download MP4 or just the audio If you don’t need the entire video file, Downie can save only the audio track from that file. Or, if you want all your videos in the MP4 format, you can set Downie to convert them automatically. Simply drag-and-drop an URL Downie is brilliantly simple: just copy-and-paste or drag-and-drop the URL to the video and it will download automatically. Even if there’s text and other content on the page, Downie will detect the video and save it for you. Post-process with Permute Downie seamlessly integrates with Permute, a powerful media converter. To convert the video you’ve just downloaded to a different format or stitch parts of it into one file just send it to Permute and pick it up in that app. Important: Please make sure you have consent from the copyright holder before downloading copyrighted content." It work amazingly especially the fact that it runs in Safari.app and when the download “drops etc” it still saves the download. P.S Not bashing Video-Downloadhelper as it comes with it’s own perks, especially since I bought the license and “Downie” is just available on Setapp as long as I have a Setapp subscription (which I’m cancelling anyway).
