Video downloader

[Member andfree]

Hi. It’s the second time I write this post, because the first time it disappeared for some reason after I tried to edit it. I need a Video Downloader. I tried to install “Video DownloadHelper”, but this message appeared:

This add-on requires a newer version of Firefox (at least version 57.0a1). You are using Firefox 52.0.

“Download Flash and Video” requires a newer version of Firefox, too.

“Flash Video Downloader” needs “FVD Downloader Module” but, when I try to install it:

$ sudo dpkg -i fvd-module_1.0.8-1_i386.deb
Selecting previously unselected package fvd-module.
(Reading database ... 134356 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack fvd-module_1.0.8-1_i386.deb ...
Unpacking fvd-module (1.0.8-1) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of fvd-module:
 fvd-module depends on libsndio6.1; however:
  Package libsndio6.1 is not installed.

dpkg: error processing package fvd-module (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 fvd-module

$ sudo apt-get install libsndio6.1
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package libsndio6.1 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libsndio6.1' has no installation candidate

Any help, please? Thanks.

I think there is youtube-dl in the repo. Apt-get install youtube-dl. Then copy the url for the page with the video and paste in terminal like
youtube-dl ‘url-to-my-video-page’

Streamlight is shipped with antiX. It can both play and download Youtube videos.

Perhaps Streamlight should be added to the list of video tutorials, to help users find it.

Nope. Just deleted duplicate thread/post in ” New Users and General Questions ” to avoid cruft and confusion.

Done!

Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

I tried again.
Video DownloadHelper 7.3.5 works with Firefox Quantum 60.3.0esr (32-bit).
I also installed Video DownloadHelper 6.3.1 in Pale Moon 27.9.4 (32-bit) and it works, too. For this installation, I used the “Moon Tester Tool”:
https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/moon-tester-tool/
So, this topic is solved for me. Thanks.

I can’t find Video DownloadHelper 6.3.1 anymore. Does anybody still use the DownloadHelper with Palemoon? Which one version? Thanks.

Do you use it with palemoon? I can’t find a file for installation.

I run the Firefox that comes with antiX…

PS: Maybe you didn’t look for it as a browser add on?

That’s where I installed it from, not from the repos, but I can’t tell you if that would mean it would work on Palemoon. I would guess it might, but don’t know. 32 bit may not be available, I don’t know.

As I had written in my #13425 post, I had used the “Moon Tester Tool” to install the Video DownloadHelper 6.3.1 in Pale Moon 27.9.4 (32-bit). That had worked. But now, I can’t find a file for the Video DownloadHelper 6.3.1, so I can’t use the Moon Tester Tool to install it in Pale Moon. Maybe I have to ask at Pale Moon forum.
