YouTube Video downloading

Postby eager » 03 Apr 2021 22:57

Hi,

I've used VLC Media Player to download YT videos but that now just downloads the audio to a video not the video.

Is there a fix for this in VLC?

I'm on W10 Pro and VLC 3.0.11

Thank you!

This is it. https://benonistudio.com/how-to-keyfram ... i-resolve/ - - and it's also loaded on YT but my laptop is running out of battery so I can't post that YT link now. Thanks.

Here's the YT video version which downloads but only play audio not the video.

This is playing fine for me with VLC 3.0.12 and this updated Youtube.lua script:

That interface in the video looks surprisingly like an open source video editor called Shotcut: https://shotcutapp.com/

Maybe the video was created in shotcut but it's a video created to teach DaVinci Resolve.

That would be odd - teaching about a different video editor that the one you create a video to teach.

This code insertion looks complicated. I'll give it a try.

Where do I find the "old" lua code on my hard drive?

Will it simply be in C:\Programs 86x\VLC\???????

Once the old one is deleted I then copy the 600+ lines of code for the new lua into C:\Programs 86x\VLC\???????

This code insertion looks complicated. I'll give it a try.

Thanks.
