error message

I haven't been able to download anything from Youtube.  It just says 'Error'.  I've never had a problem before and I've tried on different occasions and with different videos.

I am having the same issue. Is it time to look for another program?

Same problem here, is this software still supported? its still available to purchase but dosent work?

This happens every time You Tube blocks software programs (like Vdownloader) from allowing videos to be downloaded.  Vdownloader then has to work around these blockages.  It's happened numerous time in the past.  But what is disappointing is that Diago is not responding to anyone this week.  I've reported the problem 3 different ways days ago and still have not heard anything.  I don't know if he's working on the issue or not.  If it's not fixed within the next week, I'm going to have to search for some other software to try.

hi, I'm using VDownloader Plus for 5 years now, mainly for youtube, and it only happened a few times that one or another download did not succeed. So very happy with their services.

Since it doesn't work anymore since about a week ago and since there is no answer to anyone of us, I searched for an alternative.

In the meantime I'm using YT DOWNLOADER PLUS for a couple of days and it is very satisfying so far. Furthermore it's free.

Thank you so much for suggesting this software!  I like it even better.  The software actually opens a lot quicker than Vdownloader ever did for me.  And the download speeds of the videos is a LOT faster than Vdownloader as well.  This will definitely be the software I continue to use.  The only thing I don't like about it is it won't let me put in the file name I want for the video when I go to download it.  So I have to go into my documents and manually change the name.  I minor inconvenience.

Dimitry, I just wanted to do a follow up about that software you recommended.  That is only for a short trial basis then you have to pay for it which I'm not doing.  So I'm glad VDownloader is once again working.
