Actually, recently, some files stopped being able to be downloaded from Youtube with it and less of the resolution options seem to be able to be downloaded. It seems to be limited to one [HQ5] .flv file and one [Mobile] .3gp file. Any idea about that? It's just Google being prats, right? This site is a good back-up though, it usually works when DownloadHelper does not. I also use IE Tab (well, next to never as I use IE if it seems necessary...which is also next to never) and started using BetterTTV recently, a nice add-on to make Twitch.tv better. With BetterTTV, frozen chat can be automatically detected, although sadly it takes quite a while to do so sometimes, so it's not very functional in my opinion. I wish there were a way to specify how often chat should check to see if it is frozen, or a way to automatically refresh it without refreshing the page...or that Twitch chat would be designed like Destiny's chat made by [insert that continually forgotten guy's username]. That got a little off-topic though. :p Still, perhaps the South Korean government is watching the thread and will see our reasons to switch to Firefox and they'll help create a Firefox not-quite-monopoly (Google hardly needs extra market share and they're big Youtube-ruining meany sneakies anyway). | ||

The only good reason to use Firefox is that you're already using it. I would rather use something that didn't have such flagrant memory management issues or could handle sessions properly. Maybe a browser that doesn't put the active window into the background any time it has a Flash applet on it. But unfortunately the alternatives all have their own frustrating shortcomings. The devil you know. | ||

Yeah, I'm talking about DownloadHelper. Youtube still works fine for me. For example, take this Proleague game: I see 720p, Medium, HQ5, HQ36, and Mobile as my options. Maybe try updating DownloadHelper? Also, I would recommend you get Flashgot and Free Download Manager if you're using DownloadHelper. It allows you to download the same file with multiple connections (for links that are resume-supported, like Youtube and Twitch), so it's faster. It'll also let you use that "Flashgot download" option for files when you highlight the quality you want in DownloadHelper. On January 23 2014 00:45 Thalandros wrote: I was.
